    Little Donnie has been “bad-mouthing” military leaders much less deserving of criticism than Kelly for a very long time. Chuck Grassley is a fool

    What if, crazy idea here, what if President Trump attempted to talk about all Americans in a respectful and adult tone, not just the ones who work for him or the ones on his “team”?

    Except to the extent it compromises national security and gives insights to our enemies, I’m actually perfectly fine with Trump expressing his grounded, fact-informed, rational frustrations and concerns with his Chief of Staff. I don’t demand it, but I’m fine with it. But try to comport yourself with at least one tenth the dignity the office once demanded.

  4. Chuckie boy, we’re long past the point where respect for an office or role matters much. You and all your punk GOP colleagues could have been publicly and privately overseeing and reining in this sociopathic, sadistic infant all this time. The implicit deal your voters made was that you would, in fact, do so. You never did, you mushmouthed putty-brained traitor. So don’t scold the one person who has no control over himself and doesn’t know better. And Happy Thanksgiving, you piece of trash.
