If John Kelly had any honour left, after Trump exploited his own sonās death to promote a political lie, then watches Trump trash another Gold Star Family, he would resign and cite Trumpās contempt for the grieving.
Kelly knew Trump did this sort of thing going in (with the Khan family and John McCainās captivity). He threw his honour away the second he accepted Trumpās offer to be the shortest-term DHS director in history (now Chief-of-Staff).
He wonāt say anything. For a general, he is an amazing study in cowardice.
By this point, I donāt believe itās cowardice anymore. I donāt believe Kelly is keeping his mouth shut because heās afraid of Trump or of the consequences of leaving the job. I honestly believe that heās a perfect fit for this White House, another power-hungry asshole who is willing to suffer anything if it gets him higher up the food chain. Hell, I wouldnāt be surprised if heās been taken aside and assured that all this is temporary, that Trump will eventually be gone and Kelly will be serving under a Pres. Pence for years to come.
