Who would have thought, “the problem is not that Putin is smart, which of course he’s smart, but the real problem is that our leaders are dumb” [just look at the childishly tone Trump says it](https://youtu.be/3CWagU2pkgo), as if Putin represents some super hero hel’ll never be.
Bolton what a joke…took him years to figure out how stupid trump is
The list of things Trump can’t understand could fill a complete set of encyclopedia and more.
USA got 4 years of the absolute dumbest possible candidate, the shittiest president in history who operates purely on narcissism – and now it’s possible that they’ll re-elect him.
That really says a lot about the people who are electing him.
For anyone not familiar with who this is, Bolton was one of the mid/high level staffers in various think-tanks/consultancies, law firms, and in the US state and defense departments who specialized in monitoring, shaping, destabilizing, nation building, and overthrowing/replacing governments in ‘developing nations’ during the latter half of the Cold War, and to a lesser degree some of the other ‘nation building’ the US has participated in since the Cold War ended.
He never reached the level of notoriety that Henry Kissinger became infamous for, but certainly in the same general field of practice. He served under Reagan, Bush I, Bush II, and Trump in various roles (though to his credit he realized Trump was off his rocker and backed out shortly before “that” phone call with Zelenski).
He is still on news shows doing interviews and offering thoughts pretty often, whether that’s good or bad I’ll leave to others, except to say that this clip is not too unusual in his attitudes toward Trump who he routinely calls an imbecile.
