Exclusive: John Kelly goes on the record to confirm several disturbing stories about Trump | CNN Politics
John Kelly, the longest-serving White House chief of staff for Donald Trump, offered his harshest criticism yet of the former president in an exclusive statement to CNN.
In the statement, Kelly is confirming, on the record, a number of details in a 2020 story in The Atlantic by editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg, including Trump turning to Kelly on Memorial Day 2017, as they stood among those killed in Afghanistan and Iraq in Section 60 at Arlington National Cemetery, and saying, “I don’t get it. What was in it for them?”
Trump said he did not want to visit the graves of American soldiers buried in the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery near Paris because, “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.” During that same trip to France, the article reported, Trump said the 1,800 US Marines killed in the Belleau Wood were “suckers” for getting killed.
Kelly concluded, "God help us."

Trump talks like a 19 year old poser antifa edge lord about the US military and yet look at the people who voted him in.
antifa
That stands for anti fascist. As such, it's strange that you think Trump is anti facism. He tried to overturn an election. Just one of many examples.
You missed the word poser in there didn't ya? They're making a comparison. It's not 1:1
I think the word got used like any generic epithet, like “millennial” or whatever. “Antifa” has been corrupted by right wing propagandists to mean looting anarchist, leftist, vandal, etc.
Trump talks like
Oops! Looks like you missed the very beginning of the comment where it's made clear this is a metaphor, not an actual literal description. It's ok, it happens to the best of us. But in the future, if you think a comment says something outlandish like "Trump is antifa", maybe go back and reread it?
Poser Nazi edgelord. Trump isn't ANTIFA - he openly acknowledges and eggs on fascists. Not the opposite.
He blamed antifa for violence in summer of 2020. His supporters posted online that antifa was coming to get them in their small towns. Antifa is their boogeyman.
Nazi edgelords don't shit talk the military, which is the important point of their comparison to a "leftist" edgelord
I think he may be a lot more shallow, lets say a 3rd grader that never learnt to be compassionate and empathetic. More dangerous even.
