As John Bolton reportedly writes in his new book, President Donald Trump said he would have made Bolton his secretary of state if it wasn't for that "son of a b**** Rand Paul" from Kentucky.
"I’d love to have you over there, [as Secretary of State]" Trump reportedly told Bolton in 2018.
"That son of a b**** Rand Paul will vote against you," Trump said, according to Bolton.
After getting hired as the national security adviser, Bolton learned Paul privately called him "the worst f***ing decision” Trump had made.
The president then reportedly brought up Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, Kentucky's other Republican senator.
"And McConnell is worried (Paul) may persuade other Republicans, who need his vote on judges and other things," Trump added, according to Bolton.
Rand stopped Bolton from becoming Sec of State!
