John Kellys White House controls draw ire of Trump supporters

Source: raw story/ newsweek

It took new White House Chief of Staff John Kelly roughly six weeks to instill discipline throughout President Donald Trump’s West Wing. But now, Kelly is facing criticism for his supposedly "Svengali" control over the president.

That criticism reached a new height Thursday by some Trump supporters outside the White House, who suggested the former general and ex-Homeland Security chief Kelly is now the president’s “nanny” — and even dresses him.

“He seems to think he is a political Svengali. He’s there to bring structure and make it an adult White House,” former Trump campaign official Sam Nunberg told The Hill. “Donald Trump wasn’t necessarily elected to have Pentagon folks running the West Wing along with Democrats.”

And political provocateur and Trump’s political mentor Roger Stone went so far as to blame Kelly for Trump’s decision Wednesday to wear black pants with a blue suit jacket — a major fashion no-no — during a meeting with South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott................................

Trump always looks flumpy in his dumpy suits. Maybe he does need nanny Kelly to dress him in the morning!!

Sad that our President needs a nanny to keep him in line!

How is having a 7" Nixon tattoo on your back a good fashion statement? GQ would like a response too.

Wears his own Chinese made suits (or Mexican) he is not a good salesman. The shoulder pads are way too big, and look more like football padding on a linebacker. Ill fitting, maybe because of his shape and non existant neck. John Gotti could have showed him a thing or two about style. tRump likes to act like a Mafia Don, but fails at that, too!! His "wife" has bigger feet than him.

when it comes to buying and wearing things that they wear. They don't know jack-shit about how to dress others. Basically, they're good at spending money.

Trump always looks like he's wearing something off the sales rack at Ernie's Big & Tall Emporium. His suits don't fit, they're too small and the fabric shows clear stress lines pointing to where it's tightest.

Trump has a huge butt and he wears extra long jackets with deep double vents, thinking he's hiding all that lard. The opposite it true and a center vent will fully cover a big rear end even on windy.




The back flap on his double vent always gets blown off his butt and exposes all of his colossal anatomy.

dark brown. One morning in court, after a few crises in the late night & early morning, just before I approached the podium to address the court, I looked down and I had a navy shoe on one foot and a brown on the other...which felt the same, as they were identical in my low light closet, and in my sleep deprived state. I just held my breath.

I suppose I could have announced to the court and to all the people in the full courtroom, just for the record, I know my shoes are different colors. It seemed like that would also announce that my priorities were out of order.

I think we have an overwhelming number of issues to worry about with Trump, without making an issue of the color of his pants.

I have also worn mismatched socks, one black, one navy blue. It is embarrassing, but even if someone had noticed, no one ever commented. I try to set things out the night before to avoid that sort of thing.

Knew which shoes to slip into, but I fumbled.
Either no one noticed or a room of 30 to 40 people didn't say anything. I think everyone was so worried over their own case that no one paid attention to my shoes.
