Donald Trump's Chief of Staff is hating life

The Twittersphere was quick to notice Donald Trump's Chief of Staff John Kelly, whose reaction to his boss's shockingly aggressive UN speech was quite the picture.

As Donald threatened to "totally destroy North Korea", John sat slumped in his seat, his head in his hand in an apparent display of utter despair.

In a speech to the U.N. General Assembly on Tuesday morning, President Trump said that if “forced to defend itself or our allies,” the United States “will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea.”

Using his new, Elton John–themed nickname for North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, Trump said that “Rocket Man is on a suicide mission for himself and for his regime.”

“The United States is ready, willing, and able,” he continued. “But hopefully, this will not be necessary. That’s what the United Nations is all about. That’s what the United Nations is for.”

Twitter users were quick to notice John's demeanour during the speech.

North Korea's nuclear program, Donald went on, “threatens the entire world with unthinkable loss of life.”

He also warned that, “if the righteous many don’t confront the wicked few, then evil will triumph.”

It's not the first time John has seemed fatigued by his job. In August, he was seen hanging his head during a press conference.
