Former Congressman Trey Gowdy – Screencap of Twitter/X video.
Former Congressman Trey Gowdy has a harsh prediction about John Bolton’s future. When asked by Sean Hannity of FOX News how this all plays out, Gowdy basically predicted that Bolton is going to spend the rest of his life in jail.
Now, some people on the right don’t like Trey Gowdy and some might even call him a RINO, but his comments here are important. Prior to running for a house seat, Gowdy was a prosecutor. A good one. So when he says this it carries more weight. He knows his way around complicated legal issues.
This does not look good for John Bolton.

JONATHAN TURLEY, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR, GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY LAW PROFESSOR: No, they are cut and dry. As a longtime criminal defense attorney, I got to tell you, 18 counts of this kind really concentrates the mind because the jurors tend to look at this as a very simple question. Did he have classified information?
Did he mishandle it? And two arguments will not work in that courtroom. One is that this is all old classified information. It doesn’t matter if it’s old or brand new. If it’s still classified, you violate the statute. The other argument is that everyone does this.
HANNITY: Yeah. All right. I’m gonna ask you both an exit question.
Trey, how does this play out?
GOWDY: He is convicted, and he spends the remainder of his natural life in the custody of the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
HANNITY: Wow, that’s a prediction. How about Leticia James? As long as we’re, you know, you’re dispelling all this good news for people that believe in justice.
GOWDY: Oh, I think the facts in Bolton’s case are stronger than the other two.
