So John Bolton, a life long Republican - part of the Reagan, Bush Administrations and Fox News - after fighting Democrats in DC for decades ...will not be voting for the Republican nominee and incumbent president. (edit: he's writing in a Republican, not voting for Biden)
John Bolton exclusive interview: Trump does not represent the Republican cause that I want to backhttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/06/21/john-bolton-exclusive-interview-trumpdoes-not-represent-republican/Some highlights:
“In 2016 I voted for Trump over Hillary Clinton,” Bolton told the Telegraph. “Now, having seen this president up close, I cannot do this again. My concern is for the country, and he does not represent the Republican cause that I want to back.”
“The president does not have a philosophical grounding or strategy,” he continued. “He does not know the difference between the national interest of the U.S., and the interests of Donald Trump. There is confusion over the national interest and his personal interest, which is very dangerous for the country.”
“When you are in a senior position you have an obligation to tell the truth,” he explained. “I was concerned after 17 months in the administration that he (Mr Trump) did not have the requisite competence to be president, and the American people need to know about that.”
