John Bolton says TFG isn't 'capable' of staging a coup because 'that requires advance thinking [View all]

planning, strategizing'

John Bolton, the former national security adviser in the Trump administration and champion of the Iraq War, told CNN on Friday that his old boss isn't "capable" of staging a real coup.

"The idea of Trump staging a coup does give him too much credit," Bolton said on CNN's "New Day."

"That requires advance thinking, planning, strategizing, building up support," he continued, "and I just don't think he's capable of that."

Bolton was responding to former President Donald Trump's recent statement on a series of new books coming out, several of which include scathing details on the January 6 insurrection.
