Trump Responds to ‘Lowlife’ John Kelly

Former President Trump slammed his former White House chief of staff, Retired Gen. John Kelly, as a “lowlife” and a “total degenerate” in response to Kelly’s recent comments about Trump’s alleged fascination with dictators and interest in unchecked power.

In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump sought to push back on what he said were false accounts from Kelly about his time in the Trump administration.

“Thank you for your support against a total degenerate named John Kelly, who made up a story out of pure Trump Derangement Syndrome Hatred! This guy had two qualities, which don’t work well together. He was tough and dumb. The problem is his toughness morphed into weakness, because he became JELLO with time! The story about the Soldiers was A LIE, as are numerous other stories he told,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“Even though I shouldn’t be wasting my time with him, I always feel it’s necessary to hit back in pursuit of THE TRUTH,” Trump continued. “John Kelly is a LOWLIFE, and a bad General, whose advice in the White House I no longer sought, and told him to MOVE ON!”

Trump’s post comes after Kelly gave a pair of interviews published this week warning of Trump’s alleged interest in fascist rulers and, allegedly, of the prospect of governing with unchecked power. (Read more from “Trump Responds to ‘Lowlife’ John Kelly” HERE)
