Stunning statement from former National Security Advisor John Bolton on CNN just now:
"As someone who has helped plan coup d'état — not here but, you know, other places — it takes a lot of work." pic.twitter.com/3rsSX355ND

John Bolton was trying I guess to defend Donald Trump on CNN, and he said that he knows it’s hard to plan a coup d’etat, because he’s planned them in other countries.
He says 1/6 couldn’t have been a coup, because Trump would have had to have spent more time planning it.
It’s kind of a weird clip. We know the countries he’s talking about – at least some of them. But the US government has never admitted to this before.
I guess he gets off on just saying that.
And he’s supposed to be the good guy defending Trump because although he sent people to riot, he didn’t actually try to do a coup?
He’s getting on well with Jake Tapper, who is Jewish. Bolton claims he is only 1/8th Jew, which is something weird to really even talk about, and shouldn’t affect a person’s behavior. I suspect he is more Jewish than we are aware.
