Former White House chief of staff John Kelly used his first public comments since his exit to distance himself from the Trump administration's stances on immigration and the border wall â€“ and says he would have worked for Hillary Clinton if asked.

Kelly, a former Marine general who Trump brought into his administration as Homeland Security chief and later as his top aide, called his former position 'the least enjoyable job Iâ€™ve ever had.'

But he told a crowd at Duke University he took it out of a sense of duty after consulting with his wife.

'If Hillary Clinton had called me, I would have done it,â€ NBC News reported.

Yet another political general taking paid speaking engagements.

Bravely blames service under Trump on his wife. What a guy.

I donâ€™t remember anyone voting Kelly for president.

"But he told a crowd at Duke University he took it out of a sense of duty after consulting with his wife."

Consulting with his wife does not mean she told him what to do and he did it. That sentence means he took it out of a sense of duty and she agreed he should do it. It would be unusual for a husband NOT to consult with his wife as a job impacts both of them.

You can believe a lot of that conversation had to do with the fact they concluded the president needed people who could provide sober advice from a certain perspective. Hopefully, that would prevent bad decisions, leading to losses, such as the Kelly family has suffered.

John Kelly, the former chief of staff for President Donald Trump, says he would have worked for Hillary Clinton if she won the election and asked for his help, NBC News is reporting.

â€œIf Hillary Clinton had called me, I would have done it,â€ Kelly said.

He admitted serving as chief of staff was â€œthe least enjoyable job Iâ€™ve ever had. But it was the most important job Iâ€™ve ever had.â€

It still amazes me that the 'formers' feel that they are relevant and that anyone cares. Considering the opinion of Mulvaney would bear giving some credence to.

Look, I respect Gen. Kellyâ€™s military service, but who is he in the scheme of things? Heâ€™s a glorified office manager, thatâ€™s what.

But, Iâ€™m glad he took time away from his gym workouts to comment while heâ€™s waiting to ship out.

As w/many who made their military bones at the Pentagon,
John Kelly's record clearly exhibits administrative rather than
any combat experience, as his decorations include the
Superior Service Medal and the Meritorious Service Medal.
Keep that in mind the next time anyone labels him a hero.

The only reason, they are printing his words is because they are negative about president TRUMP. ZERO RESPECT FOR HIM.

The proof that NEGATIVE, LYING WORDS ABOUT OUR PRESIDENT...works on the brain washed people. They are being played, and don't even see that. Does anyone think, positive, correct words about President would receive any attention, by LEFT LYING PROPAGANDA? Only negative, daily, 24/7, by them.

PROPAGANDA WORKS ON WEAK MINDED PEOPLE. Sorry if it hurts your feelings. You are being controlled by BIG BROTHER. CIA, MK ULTRA person, FORD... lies about Brett Kavanaugh. 14 year old High School boy who, did not do this!

Look how many people want to believe smut. Even if it was true, it was an attempt at grope, that DID NOT WORK. Now they talk as if it was rape, they believe "the survivor". What survivor? High School, known slut=FORD, wants to demonize a 14 year old at drinking party. Why is she, as female..there? Party girl. Known as 'Blowsey Ford".

Distanced himself from administration's child-separation policy

----------------------------------------------------
What an azz. Child separation policy? That was in effect for decades, and full 8 years under Obama. Most are RAPIST, child sex slave traffickers. Drug cartel, MS-13, ISSI..Felons running from crimes committed in their country. Is this man SENILE? DEMENTIA? When people commit crimes in the USA...they are separated from their parents. You want the kids to go to jail to?

ILLEGALS are committing crime coming here. But thanks to this stupid idea of keeping coyote's with their kidnapped kids together,
the kids can keep being raped any their captors. It takes a while to sort out, who belongs to whom. This man is NOT in his right mind. HE IS A LEFT USEFUL IDIOT! No respect.

I'd rather have a guy like Kelly, who said he'd work for a Democrat, advising the president over these two actual Democrats.

Its all relevant since he surrounds himself with Democrats or people who would work for Democrats, or did like Amorosa.
