How Could John Kelly Continue To Serve Trump After Today?......

[global1]

How much more does he have to endure and be embarrassed by Trump? It's clear he can't control Trump and has no effect on Trump - why continue in his job?

[RandySF]

1. He has nowhere else to go.

Job searches have not been easy for outgoing Trump staffers.

[JI7]

2. he is a racist and wants to stay to keep pushing bigoted policies. as far as embarrassed , we are

long past that point.

[Blue_true]

14. Bingo.

He approves of Trumps general tendencies, but just wish Trump would be less of an idiot in public. Both of them have black hearts.

[PSPS]

3. Because he shares trump's racist mindset.

[The River]

4. Miliary Types

are trained not to surrender their position.

[Hekate]

5. He may be one of the few remaining people who think they can protect the nation from Trump...

In reality I have no idea, but a couple of his aides apparently thought that before they were fired or quit.

[Tipperary]

15. I would like to think that, but I think JI7probably is right.

[Blue_true]

16. No.

He is racist, and mysogonist. He approved of everything Trump is doing, but wishes Trump was more tactful. Kelly is as big a traitor as Trump is.

[rainin]

6. I suspect he compromised himself a long time ago. It's a slippery slope and trump

is an expert and guiding people down that path.

[brush]

7. He's ineffectual and a non-entity...just another racist a-hole who...

trump gathers around himself.

If Kelly had any personal pride or integrity he would left after the wife beater incident, or the lying on the AA Congresswoman incident, or the no security clearances incident, or the multiple incidents of trump insulting our allies...and on and on and on.

[Mike Nelson]

8. He's a little better at hiding it, but...

… I think he's also a White Supremacist.

[Blue_true]

18. Sure seems that way.

Once we have power again, we should investigate what happened to the careers of female officers and officers of color that were under his command. The guy is foul, that is not something that just happens overnight.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

9. Racists like to stick together.

[Submariner]

10. I'm hoping because he has a

derringer in his pocket he would use if Trumphole went to DEFCON 1.

11. Word was out last month that he would be leaving this summer

https://www.ajc.com/news/national/wsj-john-kelly-expected-leave-white-house-this-summer-trump-searching-for-replacement/Btzp2fezfHP3axPiyzZmtO/

...and supposedly a search is on for a replacement. I expect that once a replacement is identified (who I would assume would HAVE to be able to get a security clearance - which is probably a difficult expectation given the loons that they crave who would never be able to get a clearance), he'll join Maddow's "Wall".

A couple of potentials just (bizarrely) popped in my mind - Gingrich or Sununu.

[tavernier]

19. Thanks for your service.

Or should it be ‘servicing’?

[BumRushDaShow]

21. !!

[hlthe2b]

12. He just wants to be able to say he completed a year...he'll be out in August, I'm betting

[DemocratSinceBirth]

13. They are more alike than different.

[spanone]

17. Kelly is a trump advocate. he's not embarrassed by anything trump does. a full-throated disciple.

[Horse with no Name]

20. Because he is a republican

They have no honor. They are whores to power and money.
