Well, john kelly never apologized for lying about the Congresswoman

he told a blatant lie to the nation on national television and has never acknowledged it.

his character has been exposed and it's worthless.

trump over nation.

trump over career.

trump over truth.

shame on the general.

Trump over Duty

Trump over Honor

Trump over Country

A lot of gyrenes have lived and died by those 3 words. Kelly defecated on them with a racist lie about a woman who was comforting the widow of a slain soldier en route to meeting said soldiers coffin.

I am certain race had zilch to do with this. General Lyin' John Kelly got trapped and did what liars do (ie trumpoloids)... they lie

Our only hope for closure will be in the form of impeachment, imprisonment and justice, and even that will probably not be totally inclusive.

We've got 50, 60 million Americans who are fundamentally pieces of shit. They are the disease, Trump, Kelly, etc. are merely the symptoms.

We will never rid our body politic of the cancer within because there are so many Americans who comprise the disease.

Bust how many more are just like him? Those incapable of empathy, incapable of truly running a war and making sure you have an exit strategy. A requirement no general in the military has right now. The one general that knew what he was talking about fired for speaking the truth and we have had liars ever since.

I read an account on twitter that Kelly was stunned by the criticism of his attack on Wilson, but decided, with the help of the WH, that his apology would only prolong the story.

On edit: Kelly is a sniveling coward
