I love Mattis, but may I remind you, he is not the President...his choice.

And that children is why you should hand in your letter of resignation as you are walking out the door. Don’t agree with the Jackass in Chief on much but he is right here.

Aww, he’s insulted (if it was not so dangerous it really would be funny and a case study of the pathology of a narcissistic sociopath). Oh, the Private Sector Government Contractor with ZERO Military experience?
