Bolton was low hanging fruit. He’s not really aligned with anyone. Loved/hated by the right and left in different situations. Trump was sending a message that he can make anyone’s life hell (or at least expensive) with his weaponized FBI/DOJ/Govt.
Do Not Mock ME (the king 🙄 ) or you will pay.

He wanted to “raid” someone’s home to keep his struggle story alive. They flooded the media with the “RAID” on his house when we all know it was a predetermined negotiated serving of a warrant. The media of course complied with his BS.

He wanted to play strong and victim at the same time.
