Former President Donald J. Trump, the GOP presidential nominee for 2024, has responded to reports published Tuesday in The Atlantic in which John Kelly, Trump's former chief of staff, claimed that Trump wanted generals like Hitler and declared that Nazis did "some good things."
On Truth Social, the GOP nominee slammed John Kelly as a "lowlife," alleging on Wednesday that he had fabricated the story. The 45th president disputed Kelly's allegations, which included the former general declaring that Trump met "the definition of a fascist." Trump then thanked his supporters for coming to his defense.
"Thank you for your support against a total degenerate named John Kelly, who made up a story out of pure Trump Derangement Syndrome Hatred! This guy had two qualities, which don't work well together. He was tough and dumb. The problem is his toughness morphed into weakness, because he became JELLO with time!" Trump wrote. "The story about the Soldiers was A LIE, as are numerous other stories he told. Even though I shouldn't be wasting my time with him, I always feel it's necessary to hit back in pursuit of THE TRUTH. John Kelly is a LOWLIFE, and a bad General, whose advice in the White House I no longer sought, and told him to MOVE ON! His wife once told me, at Camp David, John admires you tremendously, and when he leaves the Military, he will only speak well of you. I said, Thank you!"
