My problem with Bolton had nothing to with his politics as his personality. Frankly, I don't want a condescending asshole representing my country. It's insulting to the rest of the world to have a guy like Bolton acting as our face in the world's venting mechanism (make no mistake, that's pretty much all the UN was ever designed to be). Having a strong opinion and voicing it are par for the course and an absolute job requirement but doing it in a manner that belittles and denigrades those with opposing views is uncalled for and exactly what Bolton was notorious for doing his entire career.
