Oh the irony. Bolton charged with having classified documents. Trump storing many boxes of classified documents in a bathroom at Mar Lago.

One gets punished, the other does not.

The irony is not lost on me. My defense would be Trump made it okay for him so it must be okay for everyone.

The difference between the two could be what Bolton did with what he had and what Trump did with what he had . Will we ever know ? Someone does !

While the FBI and DOJ fall allover themselves in an effort to secure “enemies” indictments for Trump, real crime and real criminals go unchecked. Look at the list of presidential,pardons, and weep.

America knew what Trump is, and we elected him anyway. A stain on our national integrity.

Where do you get the we stuff ! There are almost as many of us who voted against Trump . It was no landslide !

By “we” I mean “we the People of the United States”. If everyone who voted for Biden in 2020 had voted Democratic in 2024, Donald J Trump would not be President. But they didn’t, and he is. No one is saying that it was anything close to a landslide, but it was a victory, and even knowing what we knew about Trump,we handed it to him.

Bolton didn’t write a book “portraying” the Orange Puddle of Smegma as unfit for office, he wrote a book “detailing” how the Orange Puddle of Smegma is unfit for office. Semantics? Yes. But semantics matter. A portrayal implies that it’s his perspective, his spin. Details are facts

It is a fact that the Orange Puddle of Smegma is unfit for office. He’s unfit to exist in society and needs to be locked up. Preferably with other pedophile grifter con men felons.

I just can't decide if Aundowning Grandpa should be locked up in a highly secured prison or a highlyp secured memory care facility. If he was anyone else, he'd been in either/both by now.

I think that people are aware of what it means to become an enemy of Trump. That is the reason the republicans vote for anything Trump that comes through congress and the house. He threatens primaries as well as harm. I don’t agree with the republicans stance, but I can see why they do it.

Sure like my wife says " they have families " .

Bolton left himself open. He had a flaw.

But who doesn’t? The implication is that no human should ever try to defame Trump. He could come after anybody; humans have flaws. We forget where we put our keys, forget to pay a bill. We cheat on our taxes.

But the coin has another side: For Trump to attack whomever he wants implies he has no flaws and embodies perfection. Thus, he denies he is human. And the world pays for it.

Funny how everyone who "knows" trump, ends up in prison. They continue to coddle him, protect him and make excuses for him. Dare not say anything bad about the "boss," he just may be awake and listening.

This aggressive prosecution began after Trump returned to office and appointed leadership to target former adversaries. What president does that? More DOJ Weaponization. No one is safe from this criminal administration.

An obvious truth that needs to be repeated over and over to raise awareness. Denial of the obvious is still a national pastime.

James Byham's avatar

Yup , the president can't be bezonkers . 🙄

"No, Trump’s not done. He’ll continue to torment us with his cruelty, corruption, and criminality for some time, so we have to keep fighting.

But his power is disappearing. He’s become a lame duck whose quack no longer causes anyone to quake.

He has no one to blame but himself. His hubris finally reached its own breaking point." Robert Reich

What amazes me is that there was anyone aware enough to scrutinize Bolton. Given everyone--and I do mean everyone--in this admin is incompetent.

Interesting ideas we all need to consider.

Barbara Ann's avatar

And yet Trump skates away…WTF.

Steve Forman's avatar

And yet, the felon in the White House gets away with the very same thing because of a corrupt judge in Florida and a DOJ headed by the felon’s personal attorney. What a country we live in. It makes me want to vomit. 🤮

Great article. Buyer beware!

Well I can’t wait for Trump to pay for his crimes. Everyone is taking the fall for Trump and it is about dam time he pay. And he will when he is no longer President and loses protection from prosecution in January 2029.
