BIDEN V. TRUMP II: WHO IS GENERAL JOHN KELLY & WHY DOES HE CONDEMN TRUMP?


Donald Trump's longest serving and hand-picked Chief of Staff, Four Star Marine General John Kelley, recently confirmed that Trump called those serving in the military "suckers" and those making the ultimate sacrifice for our nation and our freedom "losers." These comments now confirmed through numerous sources prove Trump's unfitness for office. Some background:

During the June 27 debate Joe Biden stated directly to Trump's face:

I was recently . . . in France for D-Day, and I spoke . . .  about those heroes that died. I went to the . . . World War I cemetery he refused to go to. He was standing with his four-star general, and he told him – he said, I don’t want to go in there because they’re a bunch of losers and suckers. My son was not a loser. He was not a sucker. You’re the sucker. You’re the loser.

Donald Trump offered only lies in response--lies so brazen that his story borders on incoherent. First, Trump claimed it was a "made-up" quote and demanded that Biden apologize. But then he claimed he fired the general who confirmed the quote. In fact, Kelly stepped down amidst praise from Trump that he was a great guy and "very special." Apparently, Trump knows the quote was not made up.

In fact, Trump's own hand-picked Chief of Staff and four star Marine General John Kelly now confirms that the quote is accurate and that Donald Trump called our combat veterans "suckers" and our war dead "losers." (See above video). These quotes originally surfaced in an Atlantic. article in 2020. Trump promptly denied the statements. Kelly offers clear proof of more Trump lies.

We know Trump ran away from military service in Viet Nam claiming he suffered from bone spurs, proving his cowardice and his true attitude about military service--its for "suckers" and "losers."  Trump thinks he deserves immunity from serving his nation.

Trump's debate lies and disrespect for those willing to fight for our freedom makes him unfit for office and the GOP needs to find a new nominee for President.
