I love it when 'conservative' neo-Fascist stooges unwittingly reveal their authoritarian, Fascist tendencies.
Nine minutes into Fox's 'Special Report' tonight, John Roberts commented on a spat between John Kelly and Trump, where Kelly had gone on Fox News and said Trump's view on getting Mexico to pay for the wall had 'evolved.' Trump was allegedly furious with Kelly, "and told him so."
Roberts then went on to say:
"...but the damage was short lived. Trump, who needs Kelly to keep the trains running, was singing his praises this afternoon..."
Umm...do you KNOW the origin of that phrase, you shit-for-brains? It's what Italian Fascists used to say in defense of Benito Mussolini. They used to say, 'sure, he's a Fascist dictator who killed his political opponents, and destroyed democracy in Italy...but at least he kept the trains running on time.'
Now, we all know that Trump, and Fox News, and most of the Republican base has Fascist, authoritarian tendencies. Hence Trump's obsession with bringing a record number of Generals into his cabinet. I'm sure he tried to get them all to show up for work in their uniforms, too. He hired Mattis because his nickname was "Mad Dog" Mattis. A nickname he apparently hates, and doesn't even deserve. He's one of the more even tempered people in Trumps cabinet. General H.R. "Puff-n-Stuff" McMaster was hired because he wrote a book called "Dereliction of Duty," about how Generals had prostituted themselves to (Democratic) politicians like LBJ. Rumor has it that McMaster is now working on a sequel book called "Dereliction of DIGNITY" to describe his time at the White House.
Then there was Flynn, of course. If Obama fired him, and if he wanted to lock up Hillary...he MUST be good! (Didn't turn out that way, did it, Shithead?)
But finally, he hit the jackpot with Kelly. Kelly seems to be supporting his agenda 100%, and has gone above and beyond the call of duty to trash Trump's political enemies. Listen Donny, if Kelly wants to rationalize about the wall...LET him. He's one of the few Fascist sympathizers you've got left.
"Gee I wish I had a uniform like that. I'm sure that if I hadn't skipped out on Vietnam with fictional BONE SPURS, I'd have a chest full of medals, too."

But still, damn funny
