The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir

by John Bolton

New threats and opportunities were coming at us rapidly, and eight years of Barack Obama meant there was much to repair.

I'm pretty sure you meant to say Bush.

Given the experiences already recounted here, and more, why accept the job? Because America faced a very dangerous international environment, and I thought I knew what needed to be done.

Because you're an entitled power hungry condescending narcissist.

Trump railed away about Tillerson and how much he disliked him, recalling a dinner with Tillerson and Haley. Haley, said Trump, had some disagreement with Tillerson, who responded, “Don’t ever talk to me that way again.” Before Haley could say anything, Tillerson said, “You’re nothing but a cunt, and don’t ever forget it.” In most Administrations, that would have gotten Tillerson fired, so I wondered if he ever actually said it. And if he hadn’t, why did Trump tell me he had?

Don't even try to pretend you aren't just as much of a mysoginist as trump.

As he had done a few days before, he raised the possibility of a pardon for Scooter Libby, which I strongly supported.

Of course you do, y'all are part of the entitled old white guy club.
