Discussion: Black Caucus Women Demand Apology From Kelly After Rep. Wilson Insults

It’s my hope that La David Johnson’s widow and family, the women of the Black Caucus, and Rep. Wilson, in particular, get their apology. I don’t think they will, but I can hope.

Would have been nice if this was characterized as a demand from the entire caucus.

From Trump’s point of view, so long as he is arguing with a Black congresswoman, he can’t lose. Considering this is pretty much how he got elected president, its hard to argue he is wrong. I mean to his base clearly they only need to see her picture and the rest, especially the truth, does not matter.

Clearly Pres. * sees members of Congress as his employees, and while I applaud their statement Gen. Kelly will also be dismissive towards their demand.
This is the most important part that shouldn’t be dismissed.
‘“Congresswoman Wilson deserves an apology, the President owes her an apology. The military owes the United States Congress, the House of Representatives, a full classified briefing on the actions of the Africa command in that region. We can’t go any longer without knowing what’s going on,” she said.’

And of course to drive that point home, the NYT will publish yet another article about why Trump voters voted for Trump and a companion piece “explaining” why both sides are to blame.

I bet they are STUNNED that he hasn’t apologized yet.

They won’t get one from Dotard. But my hope is that the military (both active and retired) will shame Kelly into making one. I’m pretty sure that won’t happen, him being Cockholster’s cockholster and all.

Then again, maybe Mango Mussolini will become even more disenchanted with the good general once he discovers that Kelly out-lied even the Thief in Chief in just four minutes.

A bunch of black women getting an apology from a White House employee? Pfft. That’s pretty rich.

From the shameless lies and the racist name calling at press conference, it is clear John Kelly is a lying sack of sh*t and white christian supremacist like Preshitident Anusmouth-Putindickholster. That lyin sack of shit does not have the competence, judgement, temperament and character to be anywhere near the White House.

Wow. I thought I had identified Kelly’s lies from the transcript, but missed about 70%!

Kelly would get points for humility and graciousness if he only could say, “I misspoke and I am sorry.” But that would disqualify him from the Trump “throw a Molotov cocktail in the middle of 'em” wrecking crew. I guess he really likes being where he is, which tells you all you need to know about him.

Apologies - Get an apology from a Trumpy liar and wanker ? Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight .
