Trump responds to accusations of fascism, says John Kelly is a lowlife

Former Trump chief of staff and retired four-star Marine Gen. John Kelly told The New York Times earlier this week that Donald Trump fit the definition of a fascist and that he would rule like a dictator if elected again. Trump has responded to those comments in a long social post calling Kelly a lowlife and a bad general. Attorney and CBS News campaign reporter Katrina Kaufman has more.

I believe the people who knew Trump from inside his administration.
THEY know what he is.

I remember when patriotism didn't involve rambling self-righteous billionaires and their contempt for fellow Americans.

I lost count of trump's 'best people' who he now calls lowlife

[OlEgSaS]

So..when he took Kelly on as a member of his staff he was "the best people the smartest people i know all the best smartest people" and now... "hes a lowlife"

The pot calling the kettle black, If you want 4 more years of this train wreck, you are a special kind of stupid.

Why does CBS keep deleting my comments ?

I believe a 4 star general over Trump any time. No question about it .

What DJT meant to say was, “I’m a lowlife.”
Since we’re all having to explain what he REALLY meant whenever he talks. 🤷🏽‍♀️

I'm so sick of hearing the name trump, please get rid of him

John Kelly was fired by Trump, yet we want to take a disgruntled employee’s word against multiple others who were also in the room and said Kelly is not telling the truth?🤔 That makes sense.

It's not just John Kelly. Milley and Mattis- his other top generals- said the same thing. If one person says you you're a horse, they're crazy. If three people say you're a horse, it's time to buy a saddle.

I remember not to many days ago when we wear told that calling him Hitler makes him A target and this rhetoric shouldn’t be used Democrat or Republican after his assassination attempt and we were told not to do this now 12 days before the election. They’re doing the exact same thing. I have a question will put his life in danger we are Americans, we need to focus on policy and the way that they differ and the way that they govern but not put somebody in danger and pull up a year old article and bring it to life like it’s been something that they just discovered to me

Poor Donald everyone is always picking on him. But to his credit his great elementary school come back has probably devastated Kelly.

[DoggosAndJiuJitsu]

Waited years to drop this lie. Right… and very irresponsible for our freakin VP to report on an unsubstantiated rumor.

No matter how long someone has been perceived to serve this country does not mean when their season is over, they served honorably all the way to the end. You know, Good Ole Boy Stuff.

[RITMAN]

J.Jelly is not a lowlife. A 4-star general can't be a low life.

[lindafedchuk]

JOY and HAPPINESS turned into ANGER AND RAGE! So sad!!
MAGA 2024!!!

It's not an accusation. Donald Trump is literally saying things that Adolf Hitler himself said. If Trump doesn't want to be called a fascist, then don't act like one right in front of people's eyes.
