Donald Trump came into the White House as a 'master negotiator' and National Security Adviser John Bolton was 'deeply suspicious of diplomatic moves on rogue states'. WalkerSkyNews says their 'strategies could not be more different'
But facial hair was the least of their differences.
The outgoing National Security Adviser has always been a known quantity: he's a flag bearer for American hard power - openly hawkish and deeply suspicious of diplomatic moves on rogue states. Businessman Trump came into the White House on an anti-intervention promise - as the self-professed deal maker in chief - a master negotiator who could bring previously unattainable countries to the negotiating table. Their strategies could not be more different.
The search is now on for a replacement who echoes Mr Trump's anti-interventionist leanings. Whoever he or she is will be his fourth National Security Adviser - a hugely important role that surely does not benefit from such frequent turnover.
