USA TODAY's SusanPage: 'Is Donald Trump fit to be president?' AmbJohnBolton: 'No, I don't think he's competent to be president. I think that he's almost proud of not learning much about the subject matter of national security, certainly.' Read more:
Four months before the election, Bolton, 71, is out with a book that portrays Trump as incompetent, uninformed, incurious, erratic, enamored with foreign strongmen, obsessed with his reelection and driven solely by self-interest – in a word, unfit to be president."He's almost proud of not learning much about the subject matter of national security," Bolton said. He called working in the Trump White House"like living inside a pinball machine.
So far, the president's ferocious reaction seems to be boosting Bolton's proceeds."The Room Where It Happened," which got Bolton an advance reported at $2 million, has shot to No. 1 on Amazon.com. Advance sales have made it the top-selling book in the country.House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has also denounced the book, but not because Bolton makes damaging allegations against the president. It's because he didn't make them sooner.
Bolton accuses the House of"impeachment malpractice" for not launching a broader and longer investigation, one that might still be going on today. For instance, in an episode reminiscent of Ukraine, he says, Trump solicited election help from China. While books about Trump have become a cottage industry in the publishing world, Bolton is the highest-ranking former Trump official to depict the president in such a scathing light. He carries the credentials of a conservative who has served in the previous three Republican administrations, including as U.N. ambassador for President George W. Bush.
