John Bolton for NSA: Former U.N. ambassador championed by Senior White House Officials and Flynn loyalists

More excellent news. Senior White House officials and members of the National Security Council are pushing former United Nations Ambassador John Bolton as a replacement for ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn, according to multiple sources in and out of the White House. John Bolton would be a brilliant choice. Truly. Better than Flynn.

Unlike other names on the shortlist, ie Steven Hadley, General Patreaus,  John Bolton would best serve President Trump’s vow to restore American hegemony. Bolton is a staunch supporter of Israel unlike another much-talked about pick, General Patreaus. Petreaus blames Israel for all that plagues the Middle East. And Hadley, too, blames Israel. When Hadley replaced Condoleezza Rice  as National Security Advisor, he could be counted on to advocate for the jihad force. Hadley’s  whose views mirror the policies of the worst in our party. Frankly, Hadley’s political philosophy is closer to the Democrats than the Trump movement.  He supported the Iran nuclear deal and said Israel could grudgingly “choke down” the agreement.

Fingers crossed.

Senior White House Officials Support Bolton To Replace Flynn

Former U.N. ambassador championed by Flynn loyalists

Senior White House officials and members of the National Security Council are pushing former United Nations Ambassador John Bolton as a replacement for ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn, according to multiple sources in and out of the White House who spoke to the Washington Free Beacon.

Among Bolton’s most vocal supporters are senior administration officials loyal to Flynn and who are upset at the general’s firing. Multiple sources described an effort by these Flynn loyalists to ensure that Bolton is selected as his replacement.

The selection of Bolton as the next national security adviser would empower Flynn’s allies still in the White House and send a message that his national security vision is represented within the Trump administration. Bolton is also favored by White House staffers who are opposed to the selection of any candidate who criticized President Trump during the 2016 campaign.

President Donald Trump has not settled on a final selection yet and is also eyeing retired Army Gen. Keith Kellogg, who has been acting national security adviser since Flynn’s departure, as well as other candidates.

“There’s a strong inclination in the NSC towards the kind of experienced leadership Bolton would represent,” said one current official, who requested anonymity to speak freely about the situation. “He knows the ins and outs of D.C. but he’s not an establishment, Never Trump type. There’s also a lot of respect for General Kellogg and KT McFarland, both of whom have really stepped up under challenging circumstances.”

Bolton, a senior figure in the George W. Bush administration, is well versed in the intricacies of government and would give the White House credibility at a time when the administration is under criticism.

“The one thing that makes Bolton more qualified than anyone else for the Trump era is that he has a veteran genius-level understanding of the organizational structure of our nation’s diplomatic and intelligence apparatus,” said one veteran foreign policy insider who is in close contact with multiple senior Trump administration national security figures.

Bolton has the ability to help root out Obama administration holdovers still working in the government, according to multiple sources. That would be essential. The Free Beacon reported earlier this week that Flynn’s ouster was in part manufactured by Obama administration loyalists who leaked classified information as part of an effort to destroy the former national security adviser’s credibility.
