John Bolton, former President Trump's national security advisor in the White House, took issue with Vice President Kamala Harris' statements following her meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday, going as far as saying the Democratic Party's special relationship with the state of Israel has disappeared.
