Is there really going to be anything in it that's surprising anyway? We all know he's a piece of #### and his supporters either don't care or will just call Bolton a bitter liar.
Yeah, this is the best take on Bolton's book:

Quote:
Every insider account of Trump says basically the same thing. There are always a few new details, but the takeaway is always, always, that he is exactly who he appears to be in public. There are no hidden depths or strategies, no secret store of self-awareness or compassion.

As a result, Bolton's book is more revealing about Bolton than it is about Trump. And what it reveals is this: He had information the public needed to know during the impeachment trial. He held it secret so he could profit off it instead.
