Sarah Sanders said Kelly was displeased because he did not get a full breakfast, not b/c Trump smack

ed Germany. She is unbelievable! It was a continental breakfast --typical of European breakfast-at least that I know. Been there a few times--.

When Trump attacked Germany in Brussels, his aides pursed their lips and glanced away
by Rebecca Tan July 11 at 12:25 PM Email the author

President Trump slammed Germany on July 11, over a gas pipeline deal with Russia. He said the country is now "captive to Russia.” (Reuters)

President Trump kicked off his trip to Europe with a biting critique of the United States’ longtime allies, declaring at a breakfast meeting that Germany “is captive to Russia.” Next to him, three of his senior officials seemed uncomfortable at times, pursing their lips and glancing away from the table...................


Of course, it's impossible to say exactly what was going through the minds of Trump's aides.

He's gone from being a Marine Four Star to being the guy at the end of the table throwing a hissy fit about not getting his Wheaties at breakfast.

History will be so unkind to this ilk.

Not upset at all about Trump's stupid bullshit. Is that how you want to be known, John? I mean, if I was disappointed in the meal service, I think I could get over it in a big hurry and not look all pouty about it. But Sanders says you just had to sit there looking like a spoiled little brat because breakfast wasn't what you wanted. You're okay with that characterization, right?

As I have gotten older, a muffin and a glass of orange juice is enough to hold me until lunch sometime in the afternoon. If I get hungry before then, I have an orange or find a place that sells cut up melon.

Have none of these rubes ever been to Europe before? It wouldn't kill them and might even do them good to have a few light meals here and there. Ugh! Typical "Ugly Americans". How embarrassing.

...and certainly knows what to expect in different countries. However by this time I think it is pretty clear his boss has ruined his appetite permanently. Kelly looks dyspeptic all the time.

I'm sure he has chronic IBS from being around Trump all the time. It's amazing that he can keep anything down at all.
