re: General John Kelly's Statement: Some Reflection.

You were agreeing with the idea that advice to not call was due to it being Trump.

The advice would have been given to any president therefore you are incorrect

I have to not take this as a good assumption.

I think it is evident that Trump's persona is not geared toward eloquence, or expressing deep feelings with empathy. He is an attack dog.

I have no doubt that his 'heart was in the right place' - but I do not doubt that he was operating in an arena that he is manifestly not qualified for. Especially when he is interacting with a probably political foe.

I don't necessarily believe that Kelly would have given that advice to Obama - if noting else, Obama would be capable of being soothing and masterful in projecting genuine empathy - even if he thought the opposite.

I think it was foolish for Trump to put himself in that position - knowing there is a predatory MSM out there and a vile DEMOCRAT party who are in cahoots with each other to purposefully misinterpret anything he said.

He would have certainly been attacked by the MSM/DEM cabal had he not made the calls - but then he could have responded from his platform of strength = he could have said "It is sad that I could not call to offer my condolences, but I know that you in the media would have looked for any word out of place to attack me with - and that would not have been fair to a grieving family. YOU are the reason normal intercourse can no longer take place in America - and you are demonstrating it NOW with your attack on ME rather than allowing grieving families even a moment of sorrow"
