Lt. Gen Michael Flynn resigned from the position on Monday amidst reports he misled Vice President Mike Pence about conversations he held with the Russian ambassador to the United States.

During an interview on "CNN Newsroom" Friday afternoon, Sen. Cruz said Bolton was the best man for the job.

"Who I think would be very, very strong is John Bolton," Cruz told CNN's Manu Raju.

"John is someone who is very well known here on the Hill. Republicans and Democrats know John Bolton well. He is someone who understands the world. He understands the threats of radical Islamic terrorism. He understands the threats of an overaggressive [Vladimir] Putin," Cruz said.

"At the same time, [Bolton] understands that we should be reluctant to use military force — that we should do so only when absolutely necessary," Sen. Cruz added...

Everything I've heard from John Bolton sounds like he understands the threats to America.

Few people see the nuclear weapon development link between North Korea, Syria & Iran... with Russian assistance - Bolton nails it.
Hillary Clinton & Barak Obama were either out-to-lunch, ignorant, or .. maybe, not working in our best interests.

Picture the U.S. senior diplomats over at Foggy Bottom, lying on their backs with cold compresses or handkerchiefs mopping up spontaneous nosebleeds. Yes. More, please!

I have always been a fan of Bolton since his days as UN Ambassador. I am afraid his history and bluntness bothers GOPe and scares the democrats to death. He is certainly not PC.

Good the GOPe should be scared.  If your going to be PC you can not win.   From what I can see the Dems even scare themselves in this day and age.

We've listened to several of his speeches and commentary - every one is interesting, educational and above the partisan politics.

Bolton has a really good grasp of international affairs, and easily speaks to American concerns, just cuts through the political crap.

Bolton Hates the UN....thats why I like him.
He's said you can take the top ten floors away at the UN and it wouldn't change a thing.

Bolton obviously hasn't considered resale value of the land or else he'd want it LEVELED.

Make it a veterans home run by veterans.

We had Ellis Island for the inbound. Use this land for those getting thrown out.

Watch Lady Liberty wave her torch, and ponder where you went wrong against a nation that knows your treason but still has mercy to let you live.
