I thought "He's either straight-up lying or he needs to retire. Or both."

Seriously, John? Broken-hearted?

I don't get why Kelly was so appalled that the congresswoman was listening to the conversation. She wasn't listening IN on the conversation...she was just listening to it! The widow put it on speaker so obviously she was fine with the representative, who is a close family friend, listening to the conversation. it wasn't like the phone call wasn't on speaker, and the representative was trying to lean in to overhear the conversation.

Also, General Kelly, it seems pretty strange that you were appalled with the congresswoman for giving her take on what happened in that conversation when she was asked a question about it. But, where is your outrage that tRUMP was the one who started politicizing this whole thing by pointing out that Obama and other Presidents don't make phone calls in such situations. And, where was your outrage when tRUMP said during a phone interview, that Obama never called you after your son died? Didn't you feel that was inappropriate of tRUMP to divulge that information??!

so his WIFE is the one who would be called, not Kelly. Lost any respect I had for Kelly. If this WH IS an adult daycare, who the HELL is in charge?

would have been the recipient. I said the same thing. That would be too intrusive to get that information. But, since Kelly didnt say it didnt happen, then it probably did.

Trump and Kelly are afraid of independent women. And they’re racists.

to write down the name of the soldier who was killed, as well as the name of their family members, and to have those names in front of Trump while he is making the call?

That someone else was listening to the conversation!
I seem to remember Huckleberry Saunders said Trump had proof that he did not say what he said because there were others in the room!
How appalling that there were others listening!

Why doesn't the NSA release the tapes of the conversation?
Not only is every Presidential call recorded, doesn't the NSA, CIA, Boy and Girl Scouts and even Betty Crocker's web site say,"This call is being recorded for training purposes?"

Oh yeah. It would make the Dotard in Chief and his toy soldier look as the liars they are.
