Meh - outside of military preparations and secrets, - I don’t see why everything needs to be classified.
Everything does not need to be classified.
Problem solved.
The government should be more transparent by design.
Mr. Trump may be the most transparent person in the world. He may be the most transparent person since Jesus Christ.
It is unlikely that anyone could be more transparent than Mr. Trump. And that is likely not by design.

We all know now Bolton’s true character. He makes money and gets his revenge through a tell all. Putting the merits of the book aside I would never associate with an individual of that character. My personal opinion is that it is one of the worst traits an individual can have.

This is not a Trump-specific opinion.
Is the opinion that everything the President says should be classifieds unless it’s a public statement or in front of a camera?

It doesn't matter what you see. Fortunately for the rest of us, we are ruled by law, not the personal whims of opinionated individuals who don't have a clue what's going on.

Bolton seems like a sleeze. Kinda like that Judge Napolitano guy.
They're all big shots and happy, till they get canned.
Then they're little shots, trying to become big shots + this time, money.Worse yet he’s a blowhard and then his last act is weasel. And every liberal will despise him forever regardless.

Doesn't matter. No President can operate effectively, unless what is said in the Oval Office, state in the Oval Office.
Person or party has nothing to do with it.

Suddenly and out of nowhere we are compelled to #believebolton.
Not “sudden” at all.
If you have to believe either Bolton or, say, GW Bush, you believe GW Bush.
But if you have to believe either Bolton or Trump, you should believe Bolton. -

Please ignore everything we previously wrote about him.
You can’t make this up.
I never complained about his honesty rather his extreme hawkish to the point of trigger-happy foreign policy views. Trump came around to my view eventually.
But to your question, who do you think is more trustworthy in his assessment of the conversations covered in the book, Trump or Bolton?

@Axtremus said in Trump sues to block Bolton book:
Trump called Bolton a “traitor.”
Trump hired a “traitor” to be his national security adviser.Reflect a bit on that.
You’ll see that Trump sucks monumentally at hiring good people.Boy, you are seven kinds of stupid.

If Bolton was doing this after being fired by Obama, conservatives would be calling him a patriot.
I know, none of them will ever admit it, but we all know it's true.

I think you just spoke for yourself.
Under today’s rules a person can be taken down for something they said twenty years ago, yet if they said things their entire life and suddenly said one thing that appealed to the convenience of a tribe they are lionized.
This is the party of the “intellectuals”.
