Bolton just signed a major deal for the book he's writing. The catch is, that book will have to go through review with the administration, as it could contain material deemed important to remain secret. That review could take as long as Trump wants it to take, but Bolton wants it out this year. BUT, if he spills his guts in Senate testimony there is no longer a way for the administration to hold off publication!! Also, his buddy VP Pence is more orderly but just as dedicated to confronting Iran militarily. I highly doubt this has gotten past the coldly calculating Bolton who has no respect for Trump's process or his ability to take the kind of approach Bolton wants and that Pence could deliver. https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/09/media/john-bolton-book-deal/index.html
When would the Trump White House allow Bolton to publish a tell-all book of ANY interest? Would Trump allow an "October surprise" on himself? If Trump were reelected could Bolton publish a book of any interest in the next 5 years - before Bolton is only a distant memory?
