On Thursday, White House chief of staff General John Kelly defended the sanctity of calls between the president of the United States and Gold Star families in powerful terms. That threw a wrench into the Left’s narrative that President Trump doesn’t care enough about the troops, and that Rep. Frederica Wilson’s (D-FL) claims that Trump insulted the family of Sgt. La David Johnson were eminently appropriate.
That press conference led to a bevy of hot takes: Wilson herself calling Kelly racist, Lawrence O’Donnell of MSNBC doing the same, Brian Fallon saying that Kelly couldn’t be trusted thanks to his loyalty to Trump.
