Pres. Trump is trying to hand a political "hot potato" to Congress and using Kelly for the fall guy.
You could be right.
I just find it refreshing to find a Govt official who says they are going to follow the laws on the books, since the last 8 years were full of people who seemed to think that laws didn't mean anything...... unless you were their enemy....and then they would use, and sometimes pervert, those same laws to destroy you.
