Former U.S. President Donald Trump has repeatedly called for the lengthy jailing of opponents of his who he claimed mishandled classified materials.
Trump also repeatedly and strongly called for the prosecution of his former National Security Adviser John Bolton. Following the publication of Bolton's memoir from his time in the Trump White House, "The Room Where It Happened," Trump said that the book contained classified information.that he likely put national security at risk with his book, but the judge also rejected the Trump administration's attempt to block the book's publication.
In 2020, Trump told Fox News that Bolton should go to jail for "many, many years" for releasing the memoir.In an interview with Greta Van Susteren, Trump again called for Bolton's imprisonment. "Here's what he did: He released classified information, highly classified information and confidential information, all different categories," Trump. "John Bolton should never have been allowed to do that. You know, the young sailor that sent a picture home to his mother and other people. They go to jail for a long period of time. You can't do that. And that was not nearly as vital, as important, as John Bolton.
