Gen John Kelly: Trump is the most flawed person I’ve ever met...
https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/16/politics/...officials/

"The depths of his dishonesty is just astounding to me. The dishonesty, the transactional nature of every relationship, though it's more pathetic than anything else. He is the most flawed person I have ever met in my life," the retired Marine general has told friends, CNN has learned.

And General Kelly telling CNN that indicates that he is more flawed than anyone he describes.

Trump's biggest flaw is hiring some duds like General Kelly.

Of course, it could just be a friend who has TDS lying to CNN.

Seems to be harping on relationships. I don’t care what type of relationships the President has as long as it works for the betterment of our country.

I’m pleased with the results I’ve seen economically and with foreign policy. Two biggest factors for my vote.

I think that above all else sums up the past 4 years

Trump isn't there to make friends or plan for the future. He is there to get results and get them yesterday. If you are not delivering you will not be kept. Nothing clashes with the DC culture more then this

Biden has more flaws than a dozen Trumps. Yep, Biden did a great job in raising that fine son Hunter.

lol....CNN. Kelly doesnt like Trump. Wow. What a showstopper. CNN serving up reheated leftovers from a year old nothing story showcasing a bitter dude who got fired by two different presidents. Remember when CNN actually broke "real" news? Yeah...me neither. Reminds me of how MTV was never relevant again after they stopped showing music videos. I did hear this spicy talk of a certain lap top floating around Washington. CNN might want to do some "news stuff"....umm---idk---I think it used to be called "journalism"? Best I can tell, its an ancient practice, thats largely died out, but its still seen in a few pockets of media here and there.

General’s, like most leaders, are used to having their asses kissed. Our President isn’t the ass kissing type and doesn’t care for those that kiss ass. Couple the fact with his forward leadership style, if you’re of the touchy-feely type, you’re not going to like him.

I chuckle when I read or hear thin skinned people whine about the President being mean. Those folks must have a difficult time separating business and personal interactions.

Looking back over my 40 plus year career, the leaders I respected most were forward. I don’t kiss ass and never respected anyone that did.

There ya go. Typical CNN "journalism".

Somebody said that he said this and that.

Just like the phone call to the Ukraine. Pretty pathetic.

I’ll tell you what a flawed person is: a person who would spread horrendous lies like “he called dead hero soldiers losers and suckers”. So flawed he does it under the cover of anonymity. You know who else is flawed? Those losers and suckers who spread this lie. Yes. I’m looking at you....

Kelly thinks Trump is a horrendous person because Kelly is a product of the bureaucratic establishment that Trump is trying to dismantle.

The saddest part to me is that, having had a few peeks inside that establishment over my career, I am as convinced as I could possibly be that it needs dismantling, and badly. But that establishment doesn't want to be dismantled, because the people in it don't want to get kicked off their gravy trains, and Trump is one of the few people with thick enough skin to take them on. If they can stop him, I can't see anyone else ever taking them on. And that will be a very sad result.

Ask yourself this, Mr Kelly; who would you rather have raise your kids or grandkids? Eric/, Ivanka, DonaldJr or Tiffany Trump or Hunter Biden.

This is a non story Trump's childishness and self absorbed way of thinking are known to everyone. The guy is bitching on twitter and in his interviews daily. Why does anyone need Kelly's opinion that Trump is a ****. Normally it would be news but not with this president. Kelly probably couldn't kiss ass at the required Mike Pence level. That guy slobbers when he speaks about our president .

The last president seemed like a super nice guy but he couldn’t effectively manage a lemonade stand.

I don’t care if CEO of companies that I invest in are jerks or not. Why do I care if an elected official is a guy I’d like to have a beer with or not? Get the job done effectively or get the **** out.

**** your feelings General Kelly.

Hearsay from cnn.

At least Trump doesn’t shake down our enemies for bribes while attempting a coup against an incoming president.

Biden is a brain dead criminal. He is the perfect candidate for a complete tool such as yourself.

I don't know if Kelly has been fired twice but if he has then that tells you a lot about him. It means that he is the product of the Peter Principle. He might have been a good military man but he was out of his league in politics. Besides, here is a man that is used to have his way because of his rank and everyone in the military would bow to him. That's what he's used to and when he realized that Trump wasn't one of those his ego was too much to take. Two egos and not enough room for both of them. The only setback is that Trump is the president and Kelly wasn't, he was Trumps underling in the rank and file rule. Sometimes that's to hard for people to understand.

Look at what happened when Bolton was fired. The exact same thing. Bolton wrote a book because his ego couldn't take being fired either. It is what it is.

These ex Generals all seem to have conflicts of interest. They retire from military service, sometimes work for an administration then they work for defense contractors and others that rely on federal contracts. There seems to not be a Cincinnatus anymore.
