Republicans have asserted their majority to top down Democratic proposals and come up with a quick, no-witness process that could be resolved in just one week, according to the estimated timetable.” He would have preferred the long form,” said Trump, a proponent that “many people, including his former Homeland Security adviser John Bolton,” said. The president stated that his former ally knows his political strategy and the impression he has of other countries and governments. “What if he reveals what I think about a certain leader and he’s not very positive?” said Trump, who recalled that Bolton “didn’t leave in a good way” of the White House in September.
