Former Trump national security adviser John Bolton said during an interview this week that President Joe Biden is effectively insulting his party by refusing to drop out of the presidential race.
Bolton made the remarks during a CNN interview when asked if Democrats should replace Biden and if they have enough time to replace him.
“Yeah, I think there are two points here,” said Bolton. “The message that President Biden basically gave to the Democratic Party yesterday evening was ‘Suit up, lemmings! I’m going off the edge of the cliff and you’re coming with me!’”
“Now, if that’s what the Democrats want to do, you know, they will elect Trump, they’ll also help elect a lot more Republican senators and House members,” he said. “There is nobody who can guarantee that that debate failure or something similar to it will not occur in September or October, and everybody knows that. And at that point, the Democrats will not have any option. They will be stuck. They will be tied to the mast of Biden’s ship as it goes down.”
“This is their last clear chance to do anything,” he added. “And all I can say is if they leave Biden as the nominee and Trump wins, I think Trump has an obligation in his victory speech election night to thank Biden and the Democrats for nominating him.”
