In the clip shown above, Trump begins by citing German imports of Russian gas as evidence that Germany is totally controlled by Russia. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg remains stoic as Trump lays out his complaint, but U.S. ambassador to NATO Kay Bailey Hutchison and White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly look uncomfortable. Hutchinson appears to avert her gaze from her NATO colleagues sitting across from her, while Kelly looks down, then shifts his body and glances away, lips pursed tightly.
Later at the breakfast meeting, Trump renews his attacks, gesticulating as he says that Germany is captive to Russia because its getting so much of its energy from Russia. As Trump enunciates the word captive, nearly all of the U.S. aides seen in the clip have a noticeable reaction. On his left, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo turns his head away from Trump and looks down at the plate in front of him, while on his right, Hutchinson flinches, straightens up abruptly and casts her eyes toward the president. At the far end of the table, Kelly tightens his mouth.
In a statement to The Post, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said, "[Kelly] was displeased because he was expecting a full breakfast and there were only pastries and cheese." Mandy Johnson, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Mission to NATO, said she was not able to provide immediate comment.

This is the kind of conspiracy theory insanity that makes it hard for anyone to take left wingers serious.
Huh?
Kelly does not hide his displeasure at the jackarse he works for and his ill-conceived and reckless comments.
That's not conspiracy. That's fact. Thank God someone is keeping the lunatic orangutan in check.
