2.0

I grabbed the version that was posted free online, because John Bolton isn't getting any of my money. Even if that hadn't been the case, I'm glad I didn't pay for it, because it's really pretty terrible.

We already know how bad Trump is, and Bolton provides a few more examples. But the book also tells us this -- John Bolton is an asshole. How anyone could work with this insufferable, smug, snide person for more than a day or two is beyond me. The most fictional part of the book, most likely, is when John Kelly says of Bolton “He 
seems
 like
 a
 nice
 guy
 to
 me.”
 There really isn't any evidence in the book that Bolton is a nice guy.

The writing is pretty poor and it's clearly a lightly-adapted collection of journal entries. There are a couple of places where the editing could have been improved, and additionally, some typos in this ebook version. I'd forgive them if the author was less insufferable.
