White House claims John Bolton's book contains top secret info

and can not be published. Me thinks that's the reason someone...? in the white house made copies of the manuscript...knowing that Trump would see to it that the book would never see the light of day! Trump's reasoning for not allowing Bolton's book to be published would be for security reasons. However, we now know that there are copies of the manuscript, the question is who has them and will they be released. Someone should offer the person money for the manuscript...hmmm...I do believe that would be a quid pro quo. Our reason for a quid pro quo offer is needed for proof of the quid pro quo in question as it relates to the impeachment of the president.

"The book contains classified information that National Security demands be kept secret!"

"WHAT classified information? All it basically does is to indicate beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump is a corrupt moron!"

"Exactly!! And THAT is classified secret information!"

It's headed by a congenital liar. He does nothing but lie--dozens of them per day. This "classified" claim is bullshit. Bolton, as much as we all detest him, has never published classified information in ANY of his numerous books. So, there is that, too.
