Exclusive: John Kelly goes on the record to confirm several disturbing stories about Trump | CNN Politics
cnn.com
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."

Too little, Too late. John Kelly is culpable for everything trump said and did, and pretending to be outraged about it after the fact makes him a slimy piece of shit too. And the same goes for all the scumbags willing to look the other way for personal gain and political power. I hope your disgrace follows you for the rest of your lives.
Everyone should remember that when these people say these things, what they're also telling you is that they just let it happen. They stood by and said nothing. The reason they did was because they wanted to ride the new king's coattails. They banked on the party lasting forever... Now they're gonna sing and cry crocodile tears.
Too little, too late! No clemency! No pity! However, please do continue. We want to make sure you have company where you're going!
I concur with both the Dr. and the Capt. very well said
But I've heard all of this well before 2020... Did they rat him out ages ago, or was that another person present?
Kelly and Mattis were also used early in the Trump Administration to "prove" Trump was a grownup who would listen to intelligent people behind the scenes. Both of them should have known better.
They chose not to for the sake of power and greed.
I include the latest ones in too, like Alina Habba.
all of them. The more recent they join up the worst they are, but every single one of them knew exactly who they were getting in bed with. Every. Single. One.
