General John Kelly: "He said that, in his opinion, Mr. Trump met the definition of a fascist, would govern like a dictator if allowed, and had no understanding of the Constitution or the concept of rule of law."

Yeah. He actually said that.

UPDATE BELOW





From Digby:






"Things are working out well," says @POTUS on visit to storm shelter. "Families happy. As tough as this was, it's been a wonderful thing."



He also said "have a wonderful time" to the storm victims.





UPDATE:


Donald J. Trump, Liar-in-Chief of the United States, has been rebuked by his own DoJ, as it reported that Trump's claim in March that President Obama had wiretapped him is a lie.  Just another dirty, malicious lie by the Liar-in-Chief.  Will Trump apologize for slandering President Obama? Of course not. Trump isn't capable of doing anything remotely connected with human decency, and he isn't about to start now.

Just remember: Assume anything that comes out of his maw is a lie. Any time his mouth is moving? It's a lie until proved otherwise. 



U.S.TRUMP'S CLAIM THAT OBAMA WIRETAPPED HIS CAMPAIGN IS FALSE: U.S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

BY NINA BURLEIGH ON 9/2/17 AT 12:49 PM


In a stunning filing last night, the Department of Justice stated in a court case that neither the FBI nor its National Security Division ever wiretapped Trump Tower, contradicting a bombshell claim President Trump made in a series of early morning tweets on March 4.

Shaw... do we really need evidence from the DOJ?

President Trump stated former Pres Obama wiretapped him. I assume no president is going to blatantly lie about his predecessor. All DJT has to do is show us what he saw that led him to conclusively conclude he was wiretapped.

It should be pretty easy... unless of course Pres Trump did in fact lie.

With apologies to Randy Newman;

Short fingers got no reason
Short fingers got no reason
Short fingers got no reason

He's got little hands
And little eyes
And he walks around
Tellin' great big lies

"Don't want no short-fingered people 'round here!"

Randy Newman is a favorite of mine.

Dave, I think I read that Trump heard this rumor or read it on some far right news site, and just repeated it without any verification, which shows America and the world what a reckless danger he is. And how unconcerned he is with the truth.

You can't pass him off as simply tone deaf.

A massive national tragedy and he's not concerned about the needs of people.
He's got the worst tine ear since Barbara Bush after Katrina.

Losing your home, possessions and heirlooms, "It's a wonderful thing".
Damn, he's disgusting.

@Dave Miller -- All DJT has to do is show us what he saw that led him to conclusively conclude he was wiretapped.

Ducky, oh yeah. I forgot about the microwaves!

"Ahh, but the microwave that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadsow of a doubt and with... geometric logic..."
