John Bolton, President Donald Trump's third and longest-serving national security adviser, is speaking out against his former boss in a bombshell new book about his 17 months at the White House and an exclusive interview with ABC News.
After initially being considered for multiple top roles in Trump's administration, Bolton joined the White House as Trump's third national security adviser in April 9, 2018, after Trump fired his first two: Michael Flynn and H.R. McMaster. "In my government experience, this was the most irrational thing I ever witnessed any President do," Bolton wrote of the decision, saying he and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo were close to resigning over it.
In August 2005 during a congressional recess, Bush appointed Bolton to temporarily serve as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. Unable to win confirmation from a majority-Democratic Senate, Bolton resigned in December 2006, when his recess appointment would have expired.
