    Trump rejects John Bolton not because he's deranged but because he has a mustache. You can't make this up. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/donald-trump-is-holding-a-government-casting-call-hes-seeking-the-look/2016/12/21/703ae8a4-c795-11e6-bf4b-2c064d32a4bf_story.html?utm_term=.e98fb12a8cb2 …pic.twitter.com/hjQHsu0Q4m
