I side with General Milley and John Kelly. They are men of honor.

[davidgoff]

Ill take the word of Kelly any day over a draft dodging, con man

[Chez-kfcy]

Doesn't matter. MAGA will vote for him no matter what.

I remember her.-Vanessa Guillen. I remember when that happened and how her family struggled, because I was stationed at Fort Hood too. And though it was many years before her, I could relate to having problems with the males. That is so like diaper don who hates women to begin with. He makes me feel sick, he is such an abuser and everyone covers for him. He is great at one thing-being a con.

Did anyone tell Donny that Hitler and his generals LOST the war?

[philgroves]

We didn't have to wait 2 weeks ... received our ballots Saturday ... dropped off our completed ballots at city hall yesterday ... voted HARRIS/WALZ and BLUE right down the ticket!!!

[gene-whoq]

Trump, being authoritarian himself, likes all authoritarian leaders, not just Hitler.

[floridaman]

Early voted for
K🇺🇸MALA & WALZ !!

Let’s

[kathydittmer]

Kelly has a moral responsibility to speak of what he saw! These people know…..when these generals speak out, they are defending the people of the United States, just as if we were out on a physical battlefield!

[jeffreywalker]

Not long after Kelly left the Trump administration he described Trump as "the most flawed man I ever met".

[sistersnake]

But will FOX news put this out ? Will all these pathetic souls called magas, care that he is a fascist or even know what that means

[stephenschroeder]

The portion of American voters who will still vote for tRump despite all this is 1000% baffling. 😲

[ErickAlexanderRamos-zc]

no more trump, no more hitler. Save our democracy, freedom. Harris- walz🇺🇸💙🇺🇸

[Lara-eusk]

John Kelly, in his own words. BELIEVE HIM! Vote Blue 💙🇺🇸💙

Why should my taxes go to protecting a candidate that doesn’t pay his

[terirachelsims]

Thank you, MSNBC; you've lately begun what I think of as "real reporting", no longer hiding things about Donald Trump.

[deborahboggs]

sleepwalking toward dictatorship as Cheney Once

[MrTom-klhy]

The man is proposing a massive increase in federal income through tariffs, that he will be in complete control of, bypassing congressional approval or oversight. If this does not sound dictatorial, you are not paying attention.

[briantaylor]

I believe it was a panelist on the BBC program, QI - Quite Interesting, who said: "Hitler did do one good thing. He killed Hitler."

[LeicaCat]

The generals should be doing more than just releasing soundbites. If the Orange One is a risk to the country and democracy, why aren’t they on all the networks shouting this from the proverbial rooftops.
