John Bolton and the lost art of honest brokering

In an op-ed, John Gans of the Perry World House compares the current national security advisor, John Bolton, to his predecessor and role model Brent Scowcroft, who served under George H.W. Bush. “In short,” Gans wrote, “Bolton is living Scowcroft’s nightmare: Trust is broken in Washington, and the exchange of ideas it supports has broken down amid infighting. But it is all of us who should be scared.”
