when Bolton was in the WH, so it’s not like completely unexpected.
This doesn’t seem like something trump did on his own with out staff
Maybe Miller but someone had to be behind this as trump is not capable of strategy
At least with Bush the son I knew it was Cheney Rumsfeld wolfowitz . I’m just trying to figure out who all is advising trump to take out an Iranian general this week because the only advisor close to him I would expect that push from was Bolton , who is now gone . I guess I don’t know enough trump advisors they don’t last very long
