Trump Thinks Bolton Is Behind Ukraine Leaks

Daily Beast: “In the course of casual conversations with advisers and friends, President Trump has privately raised suspicions that a spiteful John Bolton, his notoriously hawkish former national security adviser, could be one of the sources behind the flood of leaks against him… At one point, Trump guessed that Bolton was behind one of the anonymous accounts that listed the former national security adviser as one of the top officials most disturbed by the Ukraine-related efforts of Trump and Rudy Giuliani, the president’s personal attorney who remains at the center of activities that spurred the impeachment inquiry.”

“The former national security adviser—who departed the administration last month on awful, mutually bitter terms—is working on a book about his time serving Trump, and has ‘a lot to dish,’ one knowledgeable source noted. “

Bolton is evil, for sure.

Trump is evil and stupid.
That's clearly a disadvantage.

The fact of the matter is that you could put head shots of everyone you've hired for your administration on a dart board and be pretty sure you could make a case for anyone you hit to be the whistleblower.
