His son was killed in action. Maybe he thinks about that when he looks at the creature he serves. And I’m talking about empathy, not sympathy. I know what he is. But I assume he has feelings.
“When world leaders come in, it’s kind of like you know Bibi Netanyahu is here and he who’s under investigation himself and it’s like, you know, you walk in and you know the first couple of minutes of every conversation might revolve around that kind of thing.”
Hilarious.
Is he trying to humiliate Netanyahu, or Trump, or both?
kind of embarrassed.
Trump is immune to such normal emotions. But since you’ve raised this, John, your lack of embarrassment for unseemly groveling, repeated bigotry, and serial lying also has a pathological odor to it.
People already serving time, and over 75 indictments so far and counting in 14 months… but…
“Embarrassed”? Nah. I think the word you’re looking for is “Terrified”.
There, better now, right?
That’s the very definition of projection. Like you say, tRump is incapable of those type of normal emotions.
Kelly might as well collect his last paycheck on his way out the door…and it couldn’t come soon enough imo. He’s useless. As a military man he hasn’t even bothered to fire the WH staff asshole that made that insensitive and unprofessional comment about McCain dying. tRumpists like Kelly simply don’t care enough to do the right thing because he’s too busy sucking up and making a fool of himself.
Embarrassed by Russia probe, well so am I, I however am embarrassed by the “man” we put into the WH…
Thanks Matt, I’m learning from this exchange.
edit: this is not a snark!
Believe me, I have no illusions about Kelly. He willingly serves a horrible person because he shares his horrible aims and goals. But sometimes you can’t help but wince. Like here, a bad guy getting a deserved comeuppance but try not to wince:
Every US citizen should be embarrassed.
Ah, the emanations of an empty barrel…
Trump may be “embarrassed” by the Russia probe, but sentient Americans are embarrassed by Don the Con.
“Something that has gone on this long without any real meat on the bone, it suggests to me that there is nothing there, relative to our president.”
And that is why decent people despise you. You are aiding and abetting this traitor to the country.
But that’s just it. How can he? How can he see the incompetence, the inability to lead, and say. “Yes, my son died for this and I do everything in my power to uphold it.”
Wills himself not to. Denial makes the world go around.
Yeah I guess less embarrassment, and more fear of getting caught.
Let’s be honest and say that Kelly is embarrassed by the probe and not Trump. It is still amazing to me that they are so offended by the justice system and not that collusion with Russia took place.
The interview let’s Kelly present himself as the awful person that he is. He says that he doesn’t want immigrants coming from Mexico because they are all rural country people. Imagine if a Democrat said something disparaging against people who live in the country.
He truly is an awful person and is going for the full wraithing.
Kelly is done - shot - spent - washed up - just listen to this babbling - dithering - nonsensical fluffy non-speak… like a clueless lackey
“somewhat embarrassed”…??? that is the best he can say?
Is Kelly so far out of the loop that he has nothing of substance to offer (answer- yes)
Has Kelly been so totally neutered that he can offer nothing but fluff - and lacks the spine / self respect to simply refuse to be further humiliated & chose to pack his things & move on (answer - yes)
To be a career bullshit artist it’s a requirement to be delusional and immune to embarrassment.
Just you wait, 'Enry 'Iggins, just you wait.
@ronbyers Mueller’s got it already. He’s sewing it up ten ways to Sunday so that when he issues his report only the most diehard anti-American Repukes are going to be able to unblushingly deny it.
