It’s Saturday. Give It a Rest, Chump.
Okay, so when even the Washington Post says that John Kelly owes Congresswoman Wilson an apology, Trumphouse went whacked out.
First of all, who the hell is Donald Trump to make fun of anybody’s headwear? Has he noticed what’s on top of his head?
Who the hell is John Kelly (I’m dropping the “General” crap right now) to viciously and falsely attack a congresswoman, and then run back into hiding?
Who is hell is any Republican who says the media is keeping this alive? Good Lord, Trump tweeted about it this morning. Twice, dammit. Twice, in one morning.
Who the damn hell is Sarah Huckabooboo to say that we cannot question a 4 star general? Would she like to point to that in the constitution?
Just give it a damn rest.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
1— Theodore Roosevelt
Well said President Roosevelt. That is trump’s problem he is never wrong has never be told NO and lies and lies! Unfortunately every around him does the same. Kelly needs to look at himself in the mirror and say my reputation is at stake here. Four star General or not he is wrong and lied, apologize.
2John Kelly.
3The 2017 version of Colin Powell performing at the United Nations before the Iraq War. They dance a little dance while their respective organ grinders crank out a really bad tune.
Mike, thanks for sharing TR’s words. One of my favorite political quotations.
Rick, I gave Colin Powell the benefit of the doubt, that he was given bad intel and believed what he told the UN. I don’t see that excuse for Kelly. Maybe anyone who spends time with the Liar in Chief starts to regress to infancy along with him and ceases caring what’s true as long as it makes them look good.
4Bill Maher says Kelly has become just like Trump.
“He smeared and lied. He smeared that congresslady and he lied about it. He was supposed to be the Trump-minder, but now he acts like Trump,” Maher said on his show “Real Time.”
“You can be this guy that everybody says ‘you are the man of unimpeachable integrity,’ or you can take political hit shots and be the hatchet man. You can’t do both,” Maher said of Kelly.
5JJ, thanks for not using a title for the dotard. I wish the rest of the media would follow your lead!
6John Kelly has behaved disgracefully. Military officers are held to a strict standard. Lying is a serious breach of that standard and on no account should it be glossed over “because he’s a general”. He should apologize publicly immediately.
7Because he’s a general.
That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t question him.
8That means he shouldn’t lie. Then he wouldn’t need to be questioned.
With her last load, Sarah Chuck-a-load Sandbag reached the bottom of the diaper pail. Unfortunately, Kelly is busily refilling it from the oval daycare center.
9On John Kelly, Jim Wright (Stonekettle) dryly noted on Twitter that if Huckabee-Sanders or the rest of the maladministration wants Kelly treated like a general, fine.
The UCMJ prohibits Contempt for Officials (a certain congresswoman in this case).
10I’m with the congresswoman on this one. The call came through when they were all in a car and everyone could hear it. And what the Draft Dodger in Chief said was definitely insensitive but what would he know about sensitivity. Plus he was insensitive to an African American Woman and then bad mouthed another African American woman who happens to be a Congresswoman. Does anyone see a pattern here?
11Kelly is no longer a General and the custom of allowing people to be addressed by their former title has outlived it’s intent (assuming that the intent is to honor them for what they used to do). Ya know like “Governor” Palin and “Governor” Huckabee. Just say Ms. or Mister.
12BTW, Huckabooboo stated that “they were in a room and Congresswoman Wilson should t have listened in”. Not exact words but the three ladies were in a car with the speaker phone on. There was no implied eavesdropping. But hey when did truth ever enter traitor trump’s White House.
13This POTUS plays *squirrel* so much and so often that there is precious little chance to “see” any glimpse of what everyone else terms reality.
I suspect that ultimately we are running into the real world consequences of the ever-Chump crowd’s willful ignorance. I am beginning to wonder if what I thought was hyper-partisanship is really delusion. The lack of a reality based world view by the MAGA crowd probably can be tested with questions comprising a simple knowledge of geography…
They are tired of the nerds running the world, and Pi should equal 3!
14Old Fart, regarding that geography thingy…..we have positive proof that the Earth is not flat. If it were, cats would have already knocked everything off the edge.
15LOL, Coprolite!
True, Kelly is no longer a general. We should start referring to him as Commander Slander. I find it very disturbing that he told such a detailed, easily-disproved lie. Way too much Trump has rubbed off on him.
16We knew Kelly was a right winger but we didn’t know he was a liar. We were hoping he was the adult supervision in the WH. Is there a single person in the west wing or executive office bldg across the street who is honest? Trump has left hundreds of critical jobs vacant? Couldn’t find enuff anti-ethics cynics?
17Benedict Arnold was a general. Just sayin’.
