Lawrence: Obama hits 'loonier' Trump as Trump's WH chief of staff calls him a 'fascist'

Retired Marine Corps General and Donald Trump’s longest-serving White House chief of staff, John Kelly, goes on record in two interviews to warn against another Trump term. MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell says that “Donald Trump is the most ignorant person who has ever held the title of president in this country” after new reporting reveals Donald Trump wanted the “kinds of generals Hitler had.”

If Jimmy Carter at 100 years old, already voted, you can do it also 💙 👍

The Last Word has become a must-see for me every day. I so appreciate Lawrence for telling it like it is.

How in the world can this race even be close

John Boulton misses the point when he says " don't vote at all." At this point, not voting at all is going to help Trump get elected, as he is slightly leading when factoring in the electoral college. And Boulton should know better than to say that.

"Do not boo . . . VOTE!" Words of wisdom.

Lawrence, thank you for your strong voice!!!

Can I just say how much I appreciate Lawrence O’Donnell's bluntness about Trump. This is how most people feel about the clown.

Watching from Canada i am horrfied that half your country has lost its collective mind even allowing trump to run.

[joshisnot]

Lawrence is always on point. I’m glad we have him during this time.

I love the fact that Lawrence doesn't pull his punches when he talks about 45.

When Lawrence says stupider and stupidest I’m in heaven on earth nobody can describe it any better than Lawrence O’Donnell.

[Kendra_p]

I love to hear Lawrence call him stupid. Feels like he emphasizes it each time just to make it clear. 🤣🤣🤣

How would he know what a funeral cost? He buried his own ex wife in a corner of his golf course.

I was at this Detroit rally tonight. Listening/watching Obama speak was definitely one of the highlights of my life!!! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

For all these reasons (and more) we love you, Lawrence. Thank you for defending our values and protecting our country. 🇺🇸

Thank you, General Kelly, at last going public with this knowledge! I trust Kelly. Trump fills me with disgust, all fascists make me sick
