Tim Miller: “According to a report by MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle, Bolton said that he believes there is a ‘personal or business relationship dictating Trump’s position on Turkey.’”

“Wait what? The president’s former national security advisor suggested that the commander-in-chief made life or death national security decisions because of an active conflict of interest related to his business?”

“Even by the standards of Trumpian corruption, this is holy-motherforking-shirtballs level stuff.”*

*kudos for the good place lingo

as for the GOP reaction: “so?”
