On today's episode of Loomer Unleashed, we discuss how if there's one thing that former US Ambassador John Bolton loves more than starting foreign wars, it's starting wars with Ron DeSantis. John Bolton has repeatedly attacked President Donald Trump, and now, he's predicting that by the time the general election rolls around in November 2024, Donald Trump will be a convicted felon.
00:00:06.000And on today's episode, we're going to talk about how if there's one thing that former Ambassador John Bolton loves more than starting foreign wars, it's Ron DeSantis.
00:00:15.000Now, you probably noticed this week that Ambassador Bolton decided to publicly attack Donald Trump, saying that by the time that the general election rolls around, he's going to be a convicted felon.
00:00:26.000Now, this isn't the first time that John Bolton has publicly sparred with President Donald Trump, and it's not the first time that he has tried to undermine Donald Trump's chances at re-election and has attacked his 2024 presidential bid.
00:00:40.000Earlier this year, as I have reported if you've been following my substack, John Bolton actually said that he thinks that Ron DeSantis would make a good president.
00:00:49.000And on top of that, he attacked Donald Trump as a loser.
00:00:53.000Along with publicly citing in support of Governor Ron DeSantis' 2024 presidential campaign prior to him actually announcing his official run for president, John Bolton publicly said on live national television that Donald Trump's campaign is poison to the GOP. Now,
00:01:10.000if you're just an everyday average American voter tuning into the news and you were to see John Bolton's comments attacking Donald Trump's campaign as poison to the GOP, you would probably not really know what the history of it was.
00:01:22.000And you'd think that John Bolton was just another member of the Republican Party and the GOP establishment that was speaking out negatively about Donald Trump.
00:01:30.000But it is true that President Donald Trump hired Bolton during his first term as president to serve as his national security advisor.
00:01:37.000And then in 2019, President Trump fired Bolton after the two had disputes over foreign policy decisions regarding Iran, North Korea, and Afghanistan.
00:01:47.000On September 10th, 2019, President Donald Trump fired John Bolton publicly on Twitter in a tweet when he tweeted the following.
00:01:54.000Quote, I informed John Bolton last night that his services are no longer needed at the White House.
00:01:58.000I disagreed strongly with many of his suggestions, as did others in the administration, and therefore I asked John for his resignation, which was given to me this morning.
00:02:07.000I thank John very much for his service.
00:02:10.000I will be naming a new National Security Advisor next week.
00:02:13.000Now, as you can imagine, Ambassador Bolton didn't take too kindly to President Donald Trump publicly firing him over Twitter.
00:02:19.000In fact, Bolton profusely denied the way that Donald Trump described the terms of his firing and insisted that he himself had turned in his resignation to President Trump days prior.
00:02:31.000And now in the year 2023, just four years after President Trump fired John Bolton, you can see that John Bolton is working overtime to undermine Donald Trump and make the case for why he shouldn't be the GOP nominee as we head into the 2024 presidential election.
00:02:46.000In fact, this week on August 10th, John Bolton took to Twitter to say, Essentially what John Bolton is saying is that the GOP primary hasn't taken place and we're still pretty far out from the 2024 general election.
00:03:13.000And while President Donald Trump currently isn't a convicted felon, John Bolton is predicting that by the time the general election comes around in November 2024, Donald Trump will be a convicted felon.
00:03:24.000However, there's just one big problem with John Bolton's logic, and that's the fact that every single time that Donald Trump faces a new indictment at the hands of our crooked DOJ, the Department of Injustice, as I like to call them, He continues to skyrocket by 10 points or more in national polls.
00:03:41.000You see, political strategists, GOP consultants, and rhino presidential candidates like Chris Christie, Mike Pence, and Governor Ron DeSantis severely underestimated Donald Trump.
00:03:51.000They also underestimated the loyalty of the MAGA America First Base and how much loyalty matters to the average GOP voter.
00:04:01.000All of these rhinos sitting in some smoke-filled room in Washington D.C. plotting how they're going to work with the Biden regime and the DOJ to roll out indictments and arrests against President Donald Trump every single time there's a major GOP date or a major caucus or a major vote in a key primary state.
00:04:18.000Laughing their asses off, thinking, ha ha ha ha ha, we've got them this time.
00:04:22.000But that's the exact same flawed logic that the GOP used in 2015 and 2016 when they attacked Donald Trump as an outsider and said that he had no chance of, one, winning a primary, or two, ever going on to beat Hillary Clinton and becoming President of the United States.
00:04:40.000beat a crowded GOP primary field in 2016 and to everybody's surprise except for mine because I've always been a Trumper since day one he ended up beating and absolutely obliterating Hillary Clinton on election day in 2016 going on to be the greatest president our country has ever had and so it's easy to say yeah RINOs are obviously going to support Ron DeSantis they're going to support Anybody who is anti-Trump,
00:05:08.000because whether it's the GOP establishment, the Democrat Party, the DOJ, as I like to call it, the Uniparty, which it's one big club and we're not a part of it in case you haven't noticed, their number one goal is to get Donald Trump.
00:05:23.000But what makes John Bolton a particular sinister figure in all of this is His connection to Governor Ron DeSantis and his nearly decade-long relationship with the governor through their mutual combined interests.
00:05:38.000And that's, of course, starting foreign wars at the taxpayers' expense.
00:05:42.000And so I think it's important for GOP voters to understand the relationship, not just professionally, but also financially between former Ambassador John Bolton and Governor Ron DeSantis to further prove to you How Governor Ron DeSantis is a Manchurian candidate who's been groomed by the deep state,
00:06:01.000the military industrial complex, and the uniparty for a time such as this to try to take out President Donald Trump.
00:06:08.000Now, as I have previously reported in my substack, in the days following the 2022 November election in which Governor Ron DeSantis was able to secure re-election for a second term as governor of Florida, John Bolton said, quote, Well,
00:06:35.000if President Trump's act was old and tired, we would see it being reflected in the polls.
00:06:39.000However, as every single day passes and as more voters continue to meet Ron DeSantis on the campaign trail, Donald Trump continues to skyrocket and Ron DeSantis is now nearly 50 points behind Donald Trump in national GOP primary polls.
00:06:53.000It's important to remember what John Bolton is notorious for, and that's of course his penchant for foreign wars and getting the United States embroiled in foreign conflicts.
00:07:01.000On July 12th, 2022, during an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper, Bolton actually admitted on live television that he has helped orchestrate coups in foreign countries.
00:07:11.000He continued to berate President Trump on CNN, adding that Trump is not competent enough to, quote, orchestrate and pull off a carefully planned coup, end quote.
00:07:37.000Wait a second, isn't that a good thing?
00:07:39.000Shouldn't we want a president and a leader who isn't going to be meddling in foreign affairs, who isn't going to be dragging us into useless foreign wars that aren't putting the American people in the interests of our country first?
00:07:50.000You see, it doesn't matter if you're a Republican, a Democrat, or Independent, most Americans are anti-war, but people like Ron DeSantis and John Bolton Would like you to think otherwise.
00:08:00.000And of course, it's very crucial and pivotal to how they met and how their nearly decade-long relationship was formed.
00:08:08.000You see, the fact that John Bolton is criticizing Donald Trump for not being what he calls competent enough to start a coup, it sheds a light onto the type of candidate that he's looking for.
00:08:17.000In other words, Bolton thinks that Ron DeSantis is much more fit for violating international law than President Donald Trump, who's been very vocal about being anti-war and has publicly condemned the Iraq war.
00:08:28.000In fact, in 2008, prior to even launching a presidential bid, Donald Trump condemned George W. Bush on national television and even called for him to be impeached over his lie that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
00:08:41.000In fact, President Donald Trump didn't just stop there.
00:08:43.000During a debate in 2016 between himself, Jeb Bush, And other participants in the crowded GOP primary of 2016, Donald Trump confronted Jeb Bush on live television about his brother's involvement in the Iraq war, calling it a disaster.
00:09:00.000As both a private citizen, a successful businessman, and then as the President of the United States, Donald Trump's foreign policy position has always remained the same.
00:09:08.000He's always been anti-war and has always warned against the United States getting involved in useless foreign conflicts.
00:09:15.000And so it makes sense as to why professional warmonger John Bolton is deciding to choose Ron DeSantis over Donald Trump.
00:09:22.000In comparison to Donald Trump, who has always opposed the Iraq war, Ron DeSantis is on the record publicly supporting the Iraq war.
00:09:30.000In fact, Ron DeSantis doesn't often talk about his military service, you may have noticed, and there's a very specific reason why.
00:09:37.000In fact, many people are completely unaware of Ron DeSantis' military background, and there's a very specific reason why he doesn't want you knowing anything about it.
00:09:45.000You see, prior to running for United States Congress and becoming governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis served as a lieutenant commander and JAG lawyer in the United States Navy during the administration of George W. Bush, in which he was tasked with the job of overseeing the torture of prisoners at the Guantanamo Bay detention camp in Cuba and Fallujah during the Iraq War.
00:10:05.000In fact, you may have recently seen reports in the news about how Showtime canceled a Vice documentary that was supposed to come out this year detailing Rod DeSantis' time overseeing torture at the infamous Gitmo facility.
00:10:18.000Now, this documentary was supposed to feature first-hand testimony and an interview with Mansour Addafi, formerly referred to as detainee number 441 at Guantanamo Bay.
00:10:28.000He publicly came forward following his release to say that it was Ron DeSantis who allowed for, observed, and actually participated in illegal acts of human torture According to reports,
00:10:43.000in one particular graphic instance, Adafi described how DeSantis washed with amusement during an inmate hunger strike as he and other detainees were force-fed the meal replacement shake Ensure through a nasal feeding tube that was forcefully pushed down their throats.
00:10:58.000Now you're probably wondering, okay, Laura, how does this relate to Ambassador John Bolton?
00:11:03.000Well, John Bolton's hatred for President Donald Trump has been very well publicly documented.
00:11:09.000But what hasn't been publicly documented to such great of an extent is his relationship with Governor Ron DeSantis.
00:11:16.000According to FEC reports, Ron DeSantis has actually been pocketing campaign cash from John Bolton's PAC as far back as his first congressional run 10 years ago.
00:11:25.000Along with accepting financial contributions from Ambassador Bolton, Ron DeSantis is also on video expressing his love for Bolton, stating that he views their leadership styles as being similar and that Bolton is someone he admires and aspires to be like.
00:11:39.000I think if you look at the different strands of our movement, you have a national security branch, which I think is best represented by Reagan's philosophy of peace through strength.
00:11:48.000So you look at someone like an Ambassador Bolton who's supporting me.
00:11:51.000Along with overseeing acts of torture at Guantanamo Bay, like John Bolton, Ron DeSantis has publicly broken with Donald Trump on the Ukraine-Russia conflict, arguing that America isn't doing enough to support Ukraine.
00:12:04.000And just this week, in a podcast interview that was published by The Wall Street Journal, John Bolton expressed the same sentiment, encouraging the United States to get more involved in the military conflict between Ukraine and Russia, as well as China and Taiwan.
00:12:18.000Now, in response to John Bolton's attacks on President Trump's 2024 presidential campaign, President Trump took to Truth Social to respond, posting, quote, I found John Bolton to be one of the dumbest people in government, but I'm proud to say I used him well.
00:12:32.000A total and unhinged warmonger, the red-faced boiler ready to explode was one of those very stupid voices that got us into the Middle East quicksand.
00:12:41.000Seven trillion dollars and millions of deaths later, nothing.
00:12:45.000The good news is that I won big negotiations with this moron by my side.
00:12:49.000When I brought him into a room with hostile foreign leaders, they thought I was going to war and conceded all.
00:12:55.000Now at the end of the day, whether it's Governor Ron DeSantis who is running a failing presidential campaign or former Ambassador John Bolton who was publicly humiliated by Donald Trump when he was fired In a tweet.
00:13:05.000They're just mad that President Trump is better at playing the game than they are.
00:13:09.000In summary, Ron DeSantis is a puppet of the military industrial complex who neocon warmongers like former Ambassador John Bolton view as a vehicle to take down President Trump in an anti-MAGA, anti-America First, pro-establishment coup d'etat so they can restore their status quo of death and destruction overseas.
