A shocked John Kelly told TRUMP 'those are the heroes' after the president said having wounded veterans in a military parade 'doesn't look good
MSNRAW 17 AUG 2024
Former President Donald Trump and Former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly;
Kelly told Trump wounded vets "are the heroes," after Trump wanted to leave them out of a military parade.
"I don't want them. It doesn't look good for me," Trump said of including the wounded veterans. Kelly was shocked by Trumps' request.
On Friday morning, the entire panel on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" ripped into Donald Trump for yet another REPEATED attack on America's military veterans, with criticism ranging from "shocking" to "warped."
Late Thursday Trump told a crowd at his Bedminster Golf Resort that the Presidential Medal of Freedom is more worthy of admiration than the Congressional Medal of Honor traditionally given to war heroes.
He then set off a wave of outrage by saying of the Medal of Honor recipients, "They're either in very bad shape because they've been hit so many times by bullets or they're dead."
After showing the clip on Friday morning, co-host Joe Scarborough prompted Willie Geist with, "He has a long history, Willie, of disparaging American veterans and service members."
"He does," Geist conceded. "I mean, you said it right. This is shocking but not surprising because of the pattern. This is not a one-off, this is the way he thinks about people who serve the country in uniform. In 2015, Trump mocked, of course, the late Senator John McCain (R-AZ) for having been a prisoner of war. Remember he said, quote, 'I like people who weren't captured.'"
"Yeah, there's something really warped inside of him, there really is," Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson added. "Just something — I guess the word weird is overused, but all that we just played is weird."
"And it is just appalling that he would speak of America's heroes that way," he continued. "I mean, the heroes, many who made the ultimate sacrifice for the country, and he simply does not get it. He doesn't understand. There's a connection there that's not being made, and, you know, you saw it where for years he was president
Boy, if he ever became president again, I would really worry about this country because of that emptiness, that lack inside of him, that lack of empathy, that lack of patriotism. It's just not there. It's not there."
