If he doesn't act to do something now, and the Senate acquits by the weekend, his book will lose its interest for most people. Everyone will move on to the reality of a unitary executive.
That book is only hot if it exposes actionable info. Otherwise it's a relic, after the fact.
But if he gives up enough right now to tar Trump and shock Republicans....he can both be a hero AND a millionaire.

(29,226 posts)His book sales are done...
The rabid repuke base will not buy them because Trump and his minions have turned on Bolton.
Democrats won't buy it because why bother...we already KNEW that everything he is going to confirm is true... we don't need Bolton to tell us that.
That leaves only the Never Trumpers out there to buy his book... and there just aren't that many of them.

Thats why they despise the poor.
Being poor means you are worthless trash.

(5,271 posts)since the rightwingers in the Trump camp have already turned on him and Dems are dismayed that he wouldn't testify to House or speak out clearly, so everyone will consider him a weasel and not want to reward him by buying the book.

Bolton is a vengeful bastard who didn't get his war with Iran. He would have no problem with bringing Dolt 45 & his minions down, I think.

(15,751 posts)brains and fortitude. Perhaps, seeing the ignorant and fundamentally fearful/neurotic trump getting away with gangsterism, makes it more personal against trump.
'It's all personal, every bit of business . . . I learned that from my old man, the Godfather' - [Michael Corleone to 'Tom']
[Michael Corleone also contradicts himself, variously, 'its not personal, its strictly business', contradicting Vito].
