Former National Security Advisor John Bolton claimed Tuesday on CNN’s “Newsroom” that President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the intelligence community former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard’s (D-HI) views were “on a different planet.”
Host Jim Acosta said, “We’ve seen Matt Gaetz withdraw his nomination for attorney general. Should Tulsi Gabbard do the same for Director of National Intelligence?”
Bolton said, “Well look, she said many things publicly that I think disqualify her. These are not just because her views are extreme. They are on a different planet. they are the views of somebody who doesn’t understand anything about American interests. And to put her in charge of the office of the Director of National Intelligence I think, is malpractice. I think the effect it will have on foreign governments saying we’re not sharing intelligence with the United States if it’s going to come into the hands of somebody like that.”

Extreme views = Opposing globalist and neocon foreign policy.

What exactly makes Bolton qualified? And why are his views classic American interests, and Tulsi’s are not?
The POS dodged the frat himself.

Current: NATO’s lap woke dog.
Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines was awarded the NATO Parliamentary Assembly’s “Women for Peace and Security Award” on Nov. 25 during the assembly’s 70th annual session in Montreal. The award recognized the first female director of the U.S. Intelligence Community for promoting the equal participation of women in peace and security issues.

There's that nebulous and undefined term used for any number of American military interventions: "American interests." WHOSE American interests??? Lay it out A-hole: Just what is the quantified justification for American lives and treasure?
I'm just sick of this BS.

Geez, Bolton, you don’t have to convince me she is right for the job. I already support her.

John Bolton is on a different planet. (Possibly in a different galaxy.)

They are scared shitless of Tulsi.
One must question why. What do they fear? Is that she’s a hot woman, or might it be something else?
All I know is that I see nothing but TOTAL FEAR from them, which is a GREAT SIGN for Trump.

He went to Yale and got a law degree. The mostest of all qualifications to be a neocon warmonger. If he didn’t go that route, he would have been a climate change guru like the other simp from Yale.

She was a “moderate” Democrat, now she’s am independent with mixed views. No one on either side can question her patriotism.
How is any of that “Extreme”?
To continue on Carry_Okie’s riff, “extreme” what? Left? Right? Pacifist? Trigger-Happy? Transparency? Justice?
We need some bones in the skin. We need substantive nouns. WHAT “American Interests”? What “Extreme views”?
