        I really want to rework the lyrics to Fairytale of New York to work that part about Kelly in:"He's a bum, he's a racist/wanna see who replaces/his bully Boston ass/Glad this Christmas is his last!"

        The MSM oversold Kelly and Mattis as “grown ups” who would keep Trump in line. What a joke.

        I think both can be true—Kelly sucks and is overrated and ultimately failed to reign in Trump’s worst impulses in any meaningful way, BUT things are about to become even punchier in his absence. Remember what it was like before him?

        Kelly did a great impression of Trump, especially when it came to his treatment of African American women.

        The current "adult in the room" is LITERALLY called "mad dog" and is implicated in a billion dollar fake blood testing racket.

        Mehdi Hassan's article is brutal but all true. John Kelly really is a quite deplorable human being. Pity.

        I have no love for Kelly, but Mehdi Hasan is a fraud, and people on the left should find someone better to cite.
