Former National Security Advisor of the United States John Bolton revealed he will write in former Vice President Dick Cheney for president in November. Again.
“Well, I might as well say it now. I voted for Dick Cheney,” Bolton told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins Wednesday on “The Source,” when asked who he wrote in for president in the 2020 election. “And I’ll vote for Dick Cheney again this November.”
When asked why Bolton has chosen to throw his support behind Cheney, he said he believed the former vice president would be better than President Biden and former President Trump.
“Because he was a principled Reaganite conservative, and he still is. Age is no longer a factor in American presidential politics, so his age doesn’t disqualify him. And I think you do an immensely better job than either Trump or Biden,” he said.
Cheney, 83, served as vice president to former President George W. Bush and served in Congress representing Wyoming.
Cheney’s daughter, Liz, has also voiced her opposition to Donald Trump since the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot.
When asked if he would support her if she launched a presidential bid, Bolton did not close the door to the possibility.
“Well, I like Liz a lot,” he replied. “And, you know, maybe someday she’ll get my write-in vote too. But right now, stick with her father.”
