Here is a link to FOX's Bret Baier and once you click on the link you can then go to the interview: Bret Baier | Fox News.
General Kelly came off as a dedicated, hard working advisor to President Trump and he especially has the best interest our Country as his number one goal. This 'retired' General is worth every dollar we pay him and then more. Trump really picked a winner!
It is a great interview to watch; it's concise and gets right to the point. It also explains many of the problems that have been twisted out of proportion by the left. I also think Bret Baier did a great job!
Kelly called Trump a rookie who has no idea what he is doing. The Don fought back via Twitter as normal. Kelly was right and Trump confirmed it. A great interview it was.
Trump saw it and he was not happy about it. He's been tweeting maddly this morning, contradicting what Kelly said about the wall.
If you saw the interview; the General does not try to control Trump's Tweets or does he condemn them. What I heard is this out of General Kelly: If Trump fails, I fail and so does the Nation.
The left loves to play up division and question our leadership - I saw none of that in the interview. I did see an honorable man trying to make our Country great again. The left should try working for us that hard!

Perhaps you did not listen to the same interview? Kelly did not put down our President; He said that our President was quick to learn and wanted to hear all sides of the arguments. The left wants us to come away thinking that our President is pig headed and will never change.
This interview is like everything else; some will try to spin it for their own purposes. Kelly said that this is the most important job he ever had, he went on to say it was the most difficult job he ever had - but he wants to be where he is and he feels that he is in the right spot at the right time. There are American lives at stake and he wants to help guide our President. He showed no disrespect for President Trump.
Gen Kelly is the steady COO to a charismatic, at times maddening, but full-throated CEO who is leading. Whether or not we realize it, or want it. We are so wrapped up in image, style, forgetting the most important ingredient in leadership is focus and dogged determination.

I agree that if Trump fails we all fail. But what I got out of the interview and Trump's reaction to it is that Kelly doesn't have a real handle on what Trump is thinking at any given time and that Trump hates it when people under him does an interview that is well received by the public.
The left working with the right? The right controls everything right now. They don't need the left to pass ANYTHING. But they do need a president who is not PMSing every five minutes.

What I have never heard out of the left is a question of whether Trump's Tweets where his own? So many times, during the election and even now, he immediately triggered a knee jerk reaction. Then after everybody cooled down; many saw a positive or true message to the tweet that originally angered them. Look at how both China and SK credit Trump for getting NK back to the bargaining table. Either our President is brilliant or he has a mess of ghost writers in his closet. Our President is known as a negotiator and his Tweets are just a part of those negotiations.
You are perfectly correct. As a society, we are sooo overreactive. Social medium has made us as a society even more sooo overreactively sensitive. There is some, if not all, a tactical and strategic sense to the unsettling nature of the President's tweets. Of which, I doubt all are his.
Eastern negotiators are the queens and kings of unsettling, erratic negotiation tactics in my experience, never allowing their opponent to settle into a rhythm. Culturally, Westerners are extremely discomfited by it.
