Bolten thought there was no one in the Democratic party left who could write lines about peace through strength.... I think there's a large group of Democrats many of who would agree with that line because many of us are centers we're not extreme left wingers on everything we care about the country we care about the environment we care about our allies, we care about secure borders we care about fairness in our nation and in the world.

I think maybe Mr Bolton has also possibly fallen victim to the constant propaganda and conspiracy theories that we hear in this country. One problem with the Trump mine said is that he has a hammer so everything looks like a nail to him. The problem with Democrats is that they have so many tools in the drawer and constituents to please that they don't govern with strength so frequently they pull out the wrong tool. We need some balance and common sense governing for ALL Americans with a long term view. Trump as we all know is transactional and shallow now surrounded by extremists so it5going to get ugly here and around the world while a few people get grossly enriched.

We have peace through strength, what we do not have is domination and control which we get through war. We cannot just say we don't want war and ignore it without understanding the motivations and tensions. Funny how Bolton is now a Democratic hero when he was so vilified before in the media.

These failures of the Democrats are apparently more visible that the hidden dangers of the Republicans right now for many people.
