Former National Security Adviser John Bolton has issued a warning to voters about the potential consequences of a second term for former President Donald Trump. Bolton expressed concern that a second Trump presidency could lead to a constitutional crisis by causing key leaders to resign and major United States institutions to crumble.
Bolton specifically highlights the potential impact of Trump’s choices for attorney general and their subsequent clash with the president. He raises the possibility that if the attorney general refuses Trump’s orders and resigns, it could trigger a domino effect causing others in the Department of Justice to resign as well. Bolton also raises concerns about the effects of Trump’s potentially illegal orders on the career military, suggesting that they too could choose to resign.

While Bolton maintains faith in the strength of American institutions, he acknowledges the potential danger of a second Trump term. However, he believes that as long as there is an independent judiciary, the country will turn against Trump, even if he attempts to assert his authority.
It is worth noting that Bolton has been critical of Trump since leaving his role as national security adviser in 2019. He claimed to have witnessed Trump mishandling classified documents, leading to 37 charges related to this alleged behavior. Bolton describes Trump as a collector of various items, including classified documents, which he found disturbing.
As the GOP nomination process is still ongoing, Trump’s challengers are set to face each other in the second GOP debate on Wednesday night. Despite its importance, Trump has chosen to visit striking autoworkers in Michigan instead of participating in the debate.
