Examining the Context Behind Biden’s ‘Suckers and Losers’ Remark: The Real Reason for Gen. John Kelly’s Dismissal

Setting the Record Straight on General John Kelly’s Departure

In a recent debate, Joe Biden put forth an old, debunked claim that President Trump had referred to our fallen soldiers as “suckers” and “losers.” Biden also implicated General John Kelly in this assertion. It is essential to clarify these misconceptions and reveal the truth behind these false statements.

General John Kelly, a distinguished Marine Corps general, served as Trump’s White House Chief of Staff from July 2017 to December 2018. His tenure was characterized by efforts to instill order and discipline within the White House. However, his military background and straightforward approach did not always align with the dynamics of the administration.

Kelly’s strict, methodical approach often clashed with Trump’s more spontaneous, hands-on leadership style. Trump values instinctive decision-making and direct communication, while Kelly preferred a more structured chain of command. This divergence in management styles led to friction between the two.

Kelly’s departure was also influenced by differing policy views. Kelly’s moderate stance on issues like immigration did not always coincide with Trump’s stricter position. These ideological differences made it challenging for Kelly to effectively implement Trump’s vision.

Furthermore, staff turnover and information leaks plagued the White House during Kelly’s tenure. Despite Kelly’s best efforts, the administration experienced high turnover rates and rampant leaks to the media. Kelly’s attempts to regulate access to the President and manage information flow met with resistance from both Trump and other staff members.

In December 2018, Trump announced that Kelly would be leaving his position by year’s end. While some media outlets framed this as a firing, the reality was more nuanced. Kelly’s departure was a mutual decision influenced by the above-mentioned issues and conflicts. The notion that Kelly was forced out for standing up to Trump is a convenient narrative but does not stand up to scrutiny.

Addressing the “Suckers” and “Losers” Allegation

Let’s now address the claim made by Biden during the debate, suggesting that Trump referred to fallen soldiers as “suckers” and “losers.” This allegation has been thoroughly debunked, but Biden reintroduced it in an attempt to score political points.

The assertion originated from a September 2020 article in The Atlantic, which relied on anonymous sources. The absence of named sources should have raised suspicions. Anonymous claims are easy to make but impossible to verify, yet the media propagated this story without hesitation.

Trump swiftly and emphatically denied these allegations, labeling them as “totally false.” Numerous current and former administration officials, including those present during the trip to France where these comments were supposedly made, supported Trump’s denial.

John Bolton, a vocal critic of Trump with no reason to defend him, stated in his memoir that he did not recall Trump making such comments. Bolton’s credibility and detailed account of events clearly indicate that the alleged remarks simply did not occur.

Other officials like former Deputy Chief of Staff Zach Fuentes also debunked the story. Fuentes said, “I did not hear POTUS call anyone losers when I told him about the weather. Honestly, do you think General Kelly would have stood by and let ANYONE call fallen Marines losers?”

The Media’s Role in Propagating Falsehoods

The media played a substantial role in perpetuating this false narrative. They took anonymous allegations and disseminated them, eager to tarnish Trump’s reputation. This is a clear example of media bias and their readiness to forsake journalistic standards to attack Trump.

They ignored the numerous denials from credible, on-the-record sources and sidelined statements from people like Bolton and Fuentes who had direct knowledge of the events. Instead, they clung to their anonymous sources and promoted a narrative that was not supported by facts.

Biden’s debate performance was filled with false claims, distortions, and incoherent ramblings. His assertion about Trump calling fallen soldiers “suckers” and “losers” was particularly egregious. This falsehood has been debunked repeatedly, yet Biden continues to propagate it.

It is time to hold him accountable for these lies. The media must also be held to higher standards. They need to prioritize facts over narratives and stop promoting baseless allegations.

We deserve the truth, especially regarding serious matters like disrespecting our fallen heroes. President Trump has always shown great respect for our military, and it’s disgraceful that Biden and the media continue to propagate this lie.

Conclusion

Biden’s false claims deserve scrutiny, and the media should be held accountable for spreading these lies. What are your thoughts on this? Do you believe the media should be held responsible for propagating these falsehoods? We welcome your comments below!

  • Most of the media and the entire Biden Administration has been A Big Lie. The debate finally supplied a light on this circumstance. The Lord does work in wondrous ways.
    Had the debate been sponsored or monitored by a conservative-leaning entity, people would not have accepted it as real. But now the whole world knows that everything going on with this administration has been based on lies.

  • The Atlantic, Gen. Kelly, the entire nest of the Democrat Media, the DOJ, IRS, White House Cabinet, and the entire Biden Crime Family, must be given the choice between Public admission and confession–or charges of treason.

  • I truly believe that the crooked media belong in jail for treason, and that the media must be forced to hire more conservatives, in lieu of damn democrats. For this simple rule change the MSM will be more balanced and more even about their reporting.
    Their days are numbered when President Trump is reelected to the office of the president of the US.
    Go Trump Go.

  • Pia, Ursa Logicus, and Johnny B….I agree with all of you. and Kelly’s “moderation” on illegals demonstrated he was incapable of protecting our country. The mental midget needed gone.
