I know all that I need to know about General Kelly's, or any other Flag Officer's "honor and integrity", the second they took a job in this ReTrumplican administration

I am sick of "the press" treating Republicans like they are normal human beings.
Republicans are scum, and they only do scummy things.

(13,225 posts)Secretary of Homeland Security Gen. John Kelly poked fun at President Donald Trump's issues with the press at a Coast Guard Academy commencement on Wednesday.
Trump was presented with a ceremonial saber after giving a commencement speech. After posing for a photo with the saber fixed to a plaque, Trump took his seat next to Kelly who quipped "you can use that on the press."
"Yeah," Trump responded with laughter.

(37,648 posts)For all the glowing compliments about Kelly, he's still a man who sold out his honor to serve an obviously mentally unfit person for office. In my mind, he's a sedate version of Flynn.
Trump wouldn't like him, if he didn't know what Kelly is about in his core. And that says it all. I'm not buying the Kelly is so great meme.
Not to say I didn't get satisfaction from his firing Mooch. Mooch got his comeuppance.

I applaud those who have turned down positions in this administration, and those who were fired or resigned.
But there is merit in having some sensible people in the administration as an internal control to put the brakes on complete lunacy. We don't want them to all be yes people. A lot of Dems voted to confirm Kelly for DHS.
