President Trump praised national security adviser John Bolton after the U.S. this week backed away from a potentially deadly confrontation with Iran, Politico reports.
Said Trump: “I disagree very much with John Bolton. His attitude in the Middle East and Iraq — was going into Iraq, I think that was a big mistake and I’ve been proven right but I’ve been against that forever. John Bolton is doing a very good job but he takes a generally tough posture.”
He added: “I have other people that don’t take that posture, but the only one that matters is me.”
