It appears Bolton's book undercuts Trump's defense

[Anonymous]

Someone tweeted that Bolton said the book is at the NSC for review-not with the publisher. So, the leak must have come from there..........

So John Bolton has a "team" but it had to be the NSC to leak...

A manuscript that has a book deal that hasn't been seen by a single editor? Not likely.

Of course it is likely. It had to go through the NSC to check for classified material.

Who from the NSC testified for the House at the impeachment hearing?

If there is a chance it would be classified, it would have to be written on a classified system. Bolton doesn't have access to those anymore

Perhaps classified is the wrong word, but when someone with a govt. intelligence background writes a book, it generally has to go through a review to be sure there is nothing written that shouldn't be published.

Perhaps Trump's reputation for being a big fat liar is accurate, too. Just sayin'.

Yes, I know. I had to do one when I left government service. And the document that needed to be reviewed had to be written on a classified computer. And now Bolton is verifying that he shared with his editors. They leaked it to generate publicity. Easy.
