@AmbJohnBolton The role of teasing ingenu does not suit you and it is not what your country requires of you.

(2) The President and his cabal engaged in a “drug deal” where a foreign head of state was bribed and extorted to interfere in our elections and criminally investigate Trumps’ political opponents or risk the aid necessary to fight Russian aggression. In defense of this scheme

(4) of Americans believe it. Lincoln said, At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer. If it ever reaches us it must spring up amongst us; it cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be it’s author and finisher.

(5) As a nation of freemen we must live through all time or die by suicide.” An illiberal and mendacious President who desecrates his office, sunders the nation, fouls his oath, puts self interest ahead of national interest and tears down our institutions is certainly a threat.
