New Book Claims John Kelly Had to Restrain Trump From Praising Hitler


A forthcoming book by Wall Street Journal reporter Michael Bender, claims former President Donald Trump "stunned" his then chief-of-staff John Kelly, by praising Adolf Hitler during a European visit to mark the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I.  This occurred after Kelly had finished explaining to the President “which countries were on which side during the conflict" and "connected the dots from the First World War to the Second World War and all of Hitler's atrocities,” to which Trump replied "Well, Hitler did a lot of good things.”  Kelly then tried to explain to the President that “its never a good idea to praise Hitler for anything.”

So, John Kelly is claiming he was “stunned" when Donald Trump praised Hitler - and I get that.  I mean, who could have possibly imagined that a guy like Donald Trump, who constantly heaped praise on tyrants like Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong-un, Philippine President Duterte, and Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Salman - would also be a fan of Adolf Hitler?  Why, anyone who’d believe that, would probably also believe the horrific 117 degree heat wave that recently hit Portland - was caused by climate change.


Anyway, what a comfort it is to realize we just had a sitting President these past four years - who actually needed to be told “it’s probably not such a good idea to praise Hitler.”  Why, even Sarah Palin knew that.  Of course, some might argue that if John Kelly had any integrity at all - he’d have resigned right there.  Well, the fact is, Kelly didn’t necessarily disagree with the President, he was just warning him not to say that kind of thing “out loud.”  Besides, don’t go blaming John Kelly or those other Trump officials.  After all, they were “just following orders.” 


The thing is, we now know that Trump’s admiration for Adolf Hitler apparently isn’t anything especially new.  According to to Ivana Trump’s memoir and their divorce proceeding’s records, Trump reportedly kept a book of Hitler's speeches right on their bedside table during their marriage.  Of course, knowing Trump - it was probably one of those special “Mein Kampf for Dummies” editions.  You know, lots of pictures - not too many big words.  Nothing too complicated - after all, a fascist mind is a terrible thing to confuse.

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Trump Using Divisive Topics Like Plastic Straws to Energize Base

Trump Using Divisive Topics Like Plastic Straws to Energize Base:  Using tactics such as plastic straws, wind turbines, bogus conspiracy theories and race-baiting, White House aides freely admit that Donald Trump has been deliberately attempting to amplify public tensions in America by seizing on divisive issues as a means to energize his explosively angry base. Now, I know what some of you are thinking - you’re thinking “now this, is the last straw!”  Well, before you attack the “straw man,” remember that Donald Trump was that kid in school who thought it was simply hilarious to jam two straws up his nostrils.  Straws were an important part of Donald’s childhood, so it shouldn’t be a big surprise they remain so today.     What all you “elites" don’t understand is that Trump folks are all about fighting for “freedom.”  You know, the freedom to be morbidly obese, the freedom to destroy the environment, the freedom to live without affordable healt...

Trump Commutes Old Pal Roger Stone's Sentence

Trump Commutes Old Pal Roger Stone's Sentence:   After declaring Roger Stone a victim of the “Russia hoax” perpetuated by the Left and its allies in the media, President Trump has commuted the three-year prison criminal sentence for the Republican operative and dirty trickster, who was due to report to federal prison on Tuesday after being found guilty of obstruction, witness tampering and lying to Congress. Good grief, is it my imagination, or has Trump actually just pardoned the real-life version of the Monopoly guy?  I mean, Stone is a villain right out of Charles Dickens.  Why, this is an act so corrupt, it’s almost enough to make Kim Jong-un and Vladimir Putin blush. Now, I’m no legal expert, but it appears what the Trump Administration is basically arguing is that - someone shouldn’t be punished for committing a crime which “they really should’ve gotten away with.”  And while that may sound a bit odd to the rest of us, that kind of thinking makes go...
