It is a matter of fact, not opinion, that John Kelly erred in one particular criticism of Rep. Frederica Wilson, D-Fla. The White House chief of staff should apologize.

When the culture war over how President Trump offers condolences to Gold Star families started, Kelly waded into the firefight. As a retired Marine general and the father of a son killed in Afghanistan, his words commanded immediate respect. But Kelly was mistaken when he maligned Wilson for grandstanding at the dedication of an FBI building. Outlandish as she is, she didn’t do that.
