Chorus of voices speaking out against Trump grows after former Trump chief of staff John Kelly called him a fascist

A fresh group of “lifelong Republican” former aides to Donald Trump added their voices on Friday to the chorus of criticism of the Republican nominee’s character and fitness for the White House, speaking out in support of John Kelly, who earlier this week called his old boss a fascist.

“The revelations General Kelly brought forward are disturbing and shocking. But because we know Trump and have worked for and alongside him, we were sadly not surprised by what General Kelly had to say,” a letter from more than a dozen staffers who worked in Trump’s administration says, as first reported by Politico.

Among those who signed the letter is Kevin Carroll, a former senior counselor to Kelly, the former military general who was Trump’s longest-serving chief of staff during the Republican’s one-term presidency.

    The thing is - this won’t sway any voters.

    People who are going to vote for Trump don’t like any of these “lifelong establishment republicans” because they think they’re part of the “deep state” that was preventing Trump from going full nuclear fascist.

    They WANT nuclear fascist! They don’t want these “middle of the road republicans”.
