People Are Officially Done With John Kelly After His 'Absurd' Civil War Comments

Black People: hey hi we are not your property

Southerners: yes the fuck you are

John Kelly: damn shame they couldn’t meet in the middle https://t.co/bGlzkO4NjR

Dear John Kelly: The United States of America exists because President Lincoln did not compromise. https://t.co/ciEienHASx

It’s irresponsible & dangerous, especially when white supremacists feel emboldened, to make fighting to maintain slavery sound courageous. https://t.co/qb2X7QhG7M

John Kelly to trump: “I see your Nazi sympathizing and raise you one longing for the days of slavery.” #RacistPoker

According to #Kelly, had Lincoln said, “Ok. You can have slaves on Tuesdays and Saturday.” There wouldn’t have been a Civil War. #absurd https://t.co/FYYEEIzLgq

There was compromise before the Civil War. It was called - get this - The Missouri Compromise. Didn't work out so well.

Thread: Apart from being racist, Kelly's claim the Civil War happened because of "lack of compromise" erases the MANY compromises pre-War. https://t.co/KJSxQzDdXQ

John Kelly wanting to compromise with slave-owners actually tells you all you need to know about John Kelly's moral framework.

Great to see General Kelly has turned into Colonel Klink

Dear god, a US general is unsure whose side he’s on in the Civil War. How does Gen Kelly feel about WWII? https://t.co/ErxZBsRvJD

If really wondering what Civil War was about, read the actual declarations of secession. They made it clear. https://t.co/6BQ6kz9Joh

"The lack of the ability to compromise caused the Civil War" should be followed immediately by a reading of this:https://t.co/fsmrwyByGT pic.twitter.com/suhcs9VtQj

If you were wondering (which you shouldn't be) yes, Slavery started the civil war.

If there was ever any doubt, we now know John Kelly is fully on board with the white supremacist Trump agenda. https://t.co/pPUTflM8Bw

The only way you can argue the Civil War should have been averted through compromise is if you believe black lives literally didn't matter.

We call for the resignation of John Kelly. We won’t tolerate the defense of slaveowners.

John Kelly:
Formerly: General
Currently: Whore https://t.co/tDFwD7Z4Nd

Anybody that says John Kelly is the moral consciousness of the White House is gravely mistaken.

John Kelly is the swamp.
