I hate Trump too, but focusing all our derision on Trump is what most other Republicans are hoping we do. They want us forget their role in this mess while they slip out of the side door. Fuck that. Trump is only a symbolic totem of the deep corruption running through the entire conservative movement.

Well, the whistle blower is said to be an official of an intelligence agency, and John Bolton is disqualified, being on record as saying, on national TV, that Abraham Lincoln did not appoint a team of his rivals, and men who were rivals to each other, to his war cabinet. The moment I saw that clip I thought that Bolton is 1) stupid, 2) ignorant in crucial areas, but not dumb in others, 3) a cynical liar, or 4) all of the above, but it did leave an impression that he's kind of an an idiot. To contradict every history written about the Lincoln cabinet since 1865, is pretty fucking stupid. So, My view of Bolton, based on years of watching that douchewhistle bloviate on TV, is that he's not going to lead the charge on Trump, being not a hero in any sense of the term, but he is perfectly willing to knife Trump in the back before a House committee. On balance, I would have to nix Bolton as the WB. That takes courage.
