Like most things Trump feels threatened by, he threatens to sue. Trump does not want the public to hear the truth about his Presidency, so he runs to the courts to block it.
There's a common motivation in the White House's attempt to suppress John Bolton's book and its state of denial over alarming new trends in the coronavirus pandemic: President Donald Trump doesn't want Americans to see information that could harm him or the narrative he has constructed.

Another classic example of "we hated this guy until he said something bad about Trump and now he's a hero" you leftists are dipshits.
Why Trump ever hired the war monger Bolton to begin with is beyond my understanding.
Bolton has never been a hero to me
But why are you afraid to hear what he has to say??
Where did I say I was afraid to hear what anyone had to say?
The fact of the matter is , neither your nor I have any idea whether Bolton's book contains classified material. You're merely jumping to the conclusion that it doesn't and this is just a ruse to keep Botlon from saying mean things about Trump.
You're seeing what you want to see.
Trump is playing the game that EVERYTHING he says is Classified, therefore, Bolton can’t say anything.
The courts heard a similar argument from Nixon and shot it down.
That isn't true either.
Afraid it is
IT isn't , Trump isn't even the one reviewing the book. The government has people that do that and they say they haven't completed their work yet, so............
And what do we have here?
"The lawsuit states Ellen Knight, a National Security Council official who has original classification authority over such publications, worked with Bolton for months and finished her work in late April.
“On or around April 27, 2020, Ms. Knight had completed her review and was of the judgment that the manuscript draft did not contain classified information,” the lawsuit states."
So what happened next?
"But a few days later, on May 2, another official launched an “an additional review,” according to the lawsuit. The official was Michael Ellis, the senior director for intelligence on the National Security Council. Interestingly, the lawsuit says the additional review was conducted “at the request of” Bolton’s replacement as White House national security adviser, Robert O’Brien."
So political appointees loyal to Trump have been holding up the book.
