A phone interview?

Disloyal whiner.

For not looking through a political lens, he sure is playing politics with his departure.

“It’s a loss, there’s no question,” said Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif).

“Now, it just seems to be a free-for-all,” said Sen. Jack Reed (D-R.I). “There’s no real consistent figure that’s going to stand there and just make sure literally the trains run on time. I think that was one of Kelly’s major contributions.”

i.e. We lost our guy on the inside.

These Generals are a bunch of pussies.

Outgoing White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly defends his rocky tenure

And why is it a “rocky tenure”? Because a douche reporter says it is, without evidence.

I wonder who called who. Did the LAT pursue Kelly or was it the other way around. I used to think Kelly was a great guy but after this it seems he just wants to bash the President like all other liberals. Sad.

Bottom line: Anyone who serves in the Trump administration has the wrath and degradations of the globalists in the Media and the Swamp hurled upon them. The globalists are doing all they can, especially using the Mueller investigation, to keep Trump off balance politically. Otherwise Trump would follow his instincts and extricate the United States from the costly foreign entanglements so dear to the one world/one government globalists. The sacrifices of American blood and treasure have done nothing to enhance the security of the American people. Instead needless, bitter enemies have been created far from our shores. If the globalists ultimately triumph, American sovereignty and distinctiveness will come to an end.

I never liked or trusted him, McMaster, Tillerson, Mattis, Gary Cohn, Dina Powell, etc.

Lots of Democrat Deep Staters—I’m glad they’re gone. Plenty more to go, too.

It’s tough to find experience that isn’t betraying him, but I wish he weren’t still bringing more swamp creatures into his admin:

Let us hope that Trump can now surround himself with LIKEMINDED and supportive people. I am truly fed up with the Obama Military people running the Trump Admin like Obama was still in our WH.

Understand please that all the current general officers received their 3rd and 4th star under Obama. And at that level it is all politics.

Good boy. You served the resistance well. Have a cookie.

The “interview” was definitely skewed to make it sound like Kelly was bashing Trump - too many leftist “tells” in the statements to be sure if the article has any real relevance to anything.

Cannot respect a General who rats out his CinC to make himself important
Should have figured the ones promoted during the obama era are political triangulators...

‘A bone- crushing hard job, but you do it’ Kelly

‘This job is hard’ Obama

Boo Hoo. Whiners are losers.

I guess Kelly couldn’t even wait to have a book written for him to bash POTUS.

Sounds like he wants kudos for interfering with our President. That will get him on CNN for sure. *spit*

Who is he to think he knows better? He was not elected. What a snake.

Weasel was deep state, like McMaster and Mattis.

It could just as well be that the L.A. Times is playing politics with his departure. Either way, his leaving is totally normal and the President has the option of inquiring as to how getting around an obstacle might be accomplished while still operating within the law. I seriously doubt he was the first nor will be the last President to do so either.

I saw the headline, and told my wife “Let’s look at the publisher of this, highly suspicious.”

I clicked on the FR headline to find L. A. Times. I will not bother clicking the article as it isn’t worth my time.

He may have been a hero in the past. I don’t care if this guy won the congressional Medal of Honor at point du hoc. This guy is treasonous scum. If he is not willing to defend the borders of this country he is not fit to hold public office or be in the military. He is in violation of his oath in both instances. If he was an honorable man he would renounce his citizenship & find a country he is willing to defend.

If this whiner had all the answers he wouldn’t just be a little chief of staff and wouldn’t need to shout at John Bolton.
