John Bolton channels Hillary Clinton with explanation on classified material in his book

CNN’s Davide Gelle’s reports that John Bolton said in regard to his new book, “I didn’t intend to write anything that revealed classified information”:

Bolton: "I didn't intend to write anything that revealed classified information."

LOL. Sounds a lot like someone else we remember. . .

This sounds like Hillary’s defense on the email scandal https://t.co/FuvoJf48WQ

“Pathetic excuse” indeed:

Pathetic excuse

Bolton knew exactly what he was doing and knows he'll get away with it because DOJ is all talk and no action unless you're on Team Trump. https://t.co/J86pcWds2G

Sorry, John: Still a crime:

This is like Monopoly when you go to jail, but in this case, Bolton won’t get his $2 million:

Too bad. That’ll be $2m thanks @AmbJohnBolton https://t.co/8MMebZY5RM

As for his crime, Sec. of State Pompeo compared his former colleague to Edward Snowden:

.@SecPompeo on @AmbJohnBolton to @seanhannity: "We all saw what’s happened when people leak classified information like Edward Snowden. What John Bolton did here is not dissimilar from that."

“LOCK HIM UP” chants coming soon to a MAGA rally near you:

I gave John Bolton, who was incapable of being Senate confirmed because he was considered a wacko, and was not liked, a chance. I always like hearing differing points of view. He turned out to be grossly incompetent, and a liar. See judge’s opinion. CLASSIFIED INFORMATION!!!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 22, 2020

He does have a point here:

Washed up Creepster John Bolton is a lowlife who should be in jail, money seized, for disseminating, for profit, highly Classified information. Remember what they did to the young submarine sailor, but did nothing to Crooked Hillary. I ended up pardoning him – It wasn’t fair!
