To the shithead who calls himself the President...

[Tommy_Carcetti]

...and to his cowardly, kowtowed Chief of Staff:

Representative Wilson was on the phone call with Sgt. Johnson’s family because a) she was a family friend and b) she was also a representative of the United States government accompanying the family of a fallen serviceman to greet his body on his arrival.

That’s Representative Wilson standing up for something you blatantly failed to do as Commander in Chief.

She was doing her job.

You weren’t.

Get that through your thick, pathetic skull and kindly shut the hell up.

1. Well said...............

2. I will add my smilie to this excellent post.

3. And...

And, please let's not forget...it was on speaker phone!! So, obviously the widow did not mind the representative hearing the conversation. If she didn't want the representative to hear it, she wouldn't have put it on speaker!!!

9. That is my exact thought.

Even if she didn't know Congresswoman Wilson from Wilson Phillips, it's her phone call, her privacy, her decision to allow anyone of her choosing to share her grief.

What is the WH line on this? "If the Vulgarian-In-Chief had known the call was going to be made public, he might have chosen his words more carefully," or...what, exactly?

It might be that that is even worse...if it weren't for the fact that it could hardly be worse already.

4. And weren't they in a car?

So the call had to be on speaker.

Kelly's whole argument, as Joe Pesci would say, "doesn't hold water."

I was very disappointed with the two Generals Lawrence O'Donnell had on last night. Do all military people "filter" and circle the wagons when criticized?


On edit: they were in a limo.

5. To his cowardly castrated so called Chief of Staff:

He has proven to be yet another drumpf liar and enabler, no better than any of the other frauds and criminals hired by drumpf.

7. Just when I think they can't sink any lower...

Trump and his goons reach new lows on an almost hourly basis anymore.

[WyLoochka]

8. Kelly told trump what to say

I think that's why Kelly flamed Rep Wilson. When Kelly repeated what he thought were "comforting" words yesterday it was very revealing of Kelly's character.

They revealed HIS callousness, HIS lack of empathy.

Trump must have been super pissed at Kelly because Kelly told him what to say - so therefore - "you made this mess, get out there and strike hard" was the order.

Only made it worse for both Kelly and Trump. Now we know they are both coldhearted dickheads.

"Sacred" call? How dare he? Myeisha Johnson can share a call with whomever she chooses.

If the President of the US called me and people were with me, I'd put the speakerphone on - wouldn't you. What vicious creeps. Sacred my arse.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

11. And, of course, that further highlights the fact that our idiot president has to be told

what to say, because naturally all he does is self-aggrandize and attack anyone who fails to adequately praise him.

10. Is Dump the antichrist?

Not that the Repubs have much soul to begin with, but the way they're selling out for this monster is mind-boggling.

[FakeNoose]

12. I've been thinking the same way

He must be the antichrist, it's the only explanation.
So I guess we're in the end times now.
