2. Kelly is the chief of staff; he doesn't make policy.

Since he's still working for Trump we should assume he agrees with most of Trump's positions, if not his presentation of them. But we really don't know what Kelly thinks; we only know what Trump says Kelly thinks, and we know how reliable Trump's statements are.

Makes a man proud when his lickspittle backs him up. At least, that's what Donald says; curious silence from John "Facepalm" Kelly on whether he agrees with his boss.

12. Hes the fucking chief of staff

Who the fuck cares what he thinks?

Sure, if he resigns and then contradicts Trump, then I’ll listen to what he has to say. But his current position, his opinions mean as much to me as what he had for breakfast yesterday.

14. What on Earth makes you believe Trump's statement for even one second?

What's wrong with you people to even imagine that Trump is telling the truth about General Kelly's opinions?
