After Bolton disputed Trump's account of his departure, Former Rep.

MORE (R-Ill.) appeared to side with Bolton over the president, writing "Unlike most, Bolton won’t just sit back and let Trump lie about him."

Walsh also criticized a meeting that Trump had scheduled then canceled with the Taliban at Camp David.

It’s obvious Bolton thought inviting the Taliban to Camp David was a stupid idea. But think about it: If everybody on Trump’s team who thought inviting the Taliban to Camp David was a stupid idea actually resigned, the only people still working for Trump would be Jared & Ivanka. https://t.co/8c3nRcP4Zd — Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) September 10, 2019

Trump announced Bolton's resignation on Tuesday, tweeting "I informed John Bolton last night that his services are no longer needed at the White House."

"I disagreed strongly with many of his suggestions, as did others in the Administration, he added.

Bolton, however, disputed that account, saying that he "offered to resign."

Warren and Sanders have consistently polled near the top of the 20-person Democratic field and will appear in the Democratic debate this week. Walsh and Weld have launched long shot primary bids against Trump.
