Former White House National Security Adviser John Bolton says that Donald Trump's influence over the Republican Party will be short-lived.
Since leaving the Trump administration, Bolton has become one of its most vocal critics. Speaking to Newsweek this Wednesday, he said that "many in Congress are intimidated by [Trump]."
"But I continue to believe he's an aberration and I think when he disappears, his long-term effect on the party will be less significant than people think," he said.
