Bolton is a great symbol of just how loony and far to the fringe the GOP has moved. When he served as interim UN Ambassador in Dubya's administration, he was regarded as an extreme right-winger, warmonger, and something of a kook. He stepped down as UN Ambassador because his extreme anti-UN views, and positions in other areas of foreign policy, made it unlikely that he would have been confirmed by the Senate. In Trump's administration, however, he barely registered on the nuttiness or political extremity scale, and he becomes just another in a long line of veteran GOP operatives who have been humiliated by Trump and either fired or forced out in disgrace (not that most of them had much dignity or credibility to begin with.) LOL.
