How the allegations in John Bolton's new book could impact national security

Former acting and deputy director of the CIA and CBS News contributor Michael Morell weighs in on how the allegations in John Bolton's new book could impact national security.

Funny how none of this came out under oath, but only in a lucrative book deal.

I would grab a copy of Bolton's book but my family and I use Charmin.

Bolton wants to make money with his book even if it hurts the country.

Even if only one-tenth of this is true, I’m even more scared for our country than before.

I’m confused. Why is everyone doubting Bolton’s claims? How many Republicans and former Trump staff members have to come out against him until people accede? All or most of these claims are corroborated by other complaints: for instance Bolton and Rex Tillerson’s claim that Trump does not read or participate in briefings. Or Mattis’s point about repeated Constitutional violations. I’m asking because I’m genuinely curious.

Please fire your sound person. I can't hear anything.

How come nobody is talking about collusion round 3?

The biggest debunker of John Bolten's book is Bolten himself, followed closely by his own chief of staff.

Nerd reporter: "We have allegations of high crimes that may impact national security!"
Nerd bureaucrat: " the president doesn't read enough"

They wanted to drag government to the bathroom and drown it in the tub. That's exactly what happened.

See what happens when politicians hire friends instead of qualified people.

I don't think Bolton's book could possibly have a more negative impact than Trump's Presidency already has.

He didn't testify when asked because this work of fiction makes him tons of money.
