6. Not sure what this means. If trump canned him because Bolton was pushing for more

killing, bombing, etc., that might work to trump's favor.

Interestingly, while it might tick his base off that has shown disapproval for not killing more Muslims, bombing Iran, bombing N Korea, etc., it might actually be read by some Independents that trump is not gunning for a war.

I don't know how to read this yet.

whose neocon feathers are getting ruffled. There are quite a few of these "single-issue" neanderthals who figured they could manipulate to get their agenda carried out but they keep getting "had". Slowly (very slowly) some are finally getting the message.
