I read Bolton's book and it was not a hit job on trump; he practically treated trump with kid gloves and never resorted to name calling and other smears. Yet Bolton said that every single decision trump considers or makes is based on his image... how he's going to look to the public... and his campaign for reelection.
I didn't like Bolton before, during or after reading the book but he repeated those comments enough to convince me he wasn't lying.

Personal Ignore Policy PIP: I like civil discourse. I will give you all the respect in the world if you respect me. Mouth off to me, or express overt racism, you will be PERMANENTLY Ignore Listed. Zero tolerance. No exceptions. I'll never read a word you write, even if quoted by another, nor respond to you, nor participate in your threads. ... Ignore the shallow. Cherish the thoughtful. Long Live Civil Discourse, Mutual Respect, and Good Debate! ps: Feel free to adopt my PIP. It works well.

I believe there are two sides to this. On one hand there's a definite element of truth to what you are saying and I thought the same thing myself. On the other side we can look at the '16 election for the alternative. Hillary was leading in the polls and many felt very good about her chances and then she's up losing a state like Wisconsin where she didn't even campaign and in hindsight many of her supporters say she dropped the ball by not going there. Point being you can still think you are going to win, even win big, but you can't take your foot off the gas and coast on the campaign trail. So that's why you 'attack' the VP candidate no matter who it is.
The trouble with Ms Harris, so my brother tells me, is that she is an ardent zionist. People of Indian descent have that fault - it's a reaction to the Muslims of Pakistan, I imagine.
