It is inconceivable to me that John Kelly pre-approved of Donnie Degenerate using his fallen son

yesterday to support a false attack against Barack Obama's communications with grieving family members.

"As far as other presidents, I don't know, you could ask Gen. Kelly, did he get a call from Obama? I don't know what Obama's policy was."

I mean, how could he have?

1. I really now feel Kelly has shown he lacks any integrity.

How do these people do what is unimaginable to us? How do they walk away from PR and then mock them and accuse the victims? They prove over and over they have no problem doing the unthinkable.

2. My guess is Kelly is playing what seems to him to be the good soldier

In a Severus Snape kind of way, he may cast himself as the noble guardian of the good. He has put himself in a bad position from the perspective of those he is fighting for, but that's necessary for him to be in a position to monitor and blunt the evil. Time will tell if he is vindicated as an undercover agent for liberty and freedom, or if he's just another tool for this corrupt administration.

There comes a point, though, when you're in too deep and you merge with the darkness you think you're fighting.

5. Doubtful that Kelly was asked for or gave permission for that quip

Trump probably asked him, after sticking his foot in his mouth the 1st time, "did Obama call you?", and Kelly said no.

Bam, throw Kelly under the bus.
