The apparently immortal John Bolton, warhawk diplomat extraordinaire, has written a new forward to The Room Where It Happened, his 2020 Trump-era memoir, to go in its paperback edition. He says (surprise!) that a second Trump term will be even worse than the first, which was characterized by no new wars, a booming economy, and a string of social conservative victories in the courts. His main concerns: detentes with China, Russia, and North Korea.

With condemnations like these, who needs endorsements?
