With his cash and influence if he wants to impact the 2020 election he could throw his weight behind Bill Weld ... and just maybe pull a few Republicans away from Trump to create a few fatal splits. He should throw his mone

The right will say that Bolton is lying in order to sell more books. Nothing will dissuade the base from loving their orange leader. I think Bolton has decided that he needs to break ties with Trump not because he wants Trump impeached, but because he is planning on a new career as a statesman and author à la Richard Nixon, which requires a certain amount of gravitas that being part of Trump'
