Trump played him like a fiddle. He would use Bolton’s insane war mongering to bring the other side to the table until a negotiation was made and then Bolton would be pissed he didn’t get his war. Trump did this a couple times with North Korea, China, and Iran. Bolton still doesn’t get he was being used as leverage.

GEOTUS had no support to do much at all. Senate held him back 2 years with never-Trumpers like McCain (dont forget how Trump lost the obamacare repeal vote really early on). Then in 2018, GEOTUS lost House support. In the meantime, SCOTUS flip flops. A 2nd term with full House and Senate support will be awesome. Anything less will result in the swamp remaining.
