Trump doesnā€™t have a recording. I would be willing to bet quite a bit that someone in the car recorded the conversation.

Iā€™m sure Kelly has sacrificed sufficient dignity to call another one of those ā€œspecialā€ press conferences to back up Hamboneā€™s dubious claim. NOT!

While I do not find making this public something I support. I heard the Congresswoman talk on The View. Come to find out, she had known Sgt. La David T. Johnson since he was in grade school. He was a part of a program she ran or created to help underprivileged kids. You could tell that it was a deep, personal hurt for the Congresswoman. I can see why she wouldnā€™t be able to without the details when pushed by local reporters. I really think she was driven by her own grief and personal outrage, than some political desire to use the event.

This being saidā€¦if Kelly actually comes out and tries to support this clown-in-chiefā€¦shit.

Sounds like they indeed fear that. Hence this emphasis on ā€œpersonal, private.ā€

ā€œI didnā€™t get into the details of a personal call because I donā€™t find that to be that appropriate,ā€ Sanders said.

Yeah, we donā€™t find the details of trumpā€™s call appropriate either. They were highly inappropriate.

No recording - but, Proof. However, the White House staff, including the Chief of Staff will have no further comment on this. The proof will be revealed by the so-called presidentā€™s tweets.

OMG! Whyā€™s everyone avoiding the elephant in the room?

Did General Kelly express his displeasure at President Obama for not making a courtesy condolence call?

Mango-Mugabeā€™s reptilian, racist & abominable instincts always has a base - Iā€™m afraid Kelly need to clear this gawd-awful, diabolical mess up.

Holy crap that photo. Is she getting her makeup advice from Lā€™Oreal or Ringling Bros?

Trump does horrible thing, claims thereā€™s proof he didnā€™t, proof is not forthcoming. Over and over again. The only difference is how much more horrible each new horrible thing is. Always, always, always a new low. And more shame for the nation that did this to itself.

I would not be surprised if he quits next week after this shit, but weā€™ll see.

Iā€™m sure Comrade Cockholsterā€™s compassion was merely misunderstood by a grieving widow.
In fact, hereā€™s a poll that may ultimately prove it.

By that way, is that photo how she looked today? Thatā€™s some horrible makeup on that horrible piece of human waste. Just horrible.

eta: @sniffit beat me to it.

Kelly defending Trump on this would hurt him more than it would hurt Wilson.

Plus an additional question needs to be asked: who else was in the room with ā€˜45ā€™ n Kelly?

Though its for different reasons, Iā€™d believe Hicks (naivety) and Penceā€™s ( military parent) versions of the.call (barely).

Anyone else thoughā€¦

I usually try to stay away from appearance comments, but someone needs to talk to Sarah about her eye shadow. Or maybe sheā€™s just doing a test run for her Halloween costume.

It takes real organizational and managerial talent to take the most pro forma (heartbreaking, but pro forma) of all presidential tasks, and certainly one of the most uncontroversial and humanizing of tasks, and turn it into a three-days-and-counting snowball of bad press and incompetent derpitude.

Only the best people, indeed. Very much winning, and so tired of it.
