Good spot for him, Antarctica. It’s like a big UN camp. He can fight global warming work on his diplomatic skills.

4 stars go where the CIC tells them to go.

A key problem in Afghanistan is the Rules of Engagement.
Next is proximity to Afghan troops of questionable alliance.

Don’t allow them to be armed near U.S. troops.
I don’t care how awkward that is.

Dead is awkward.

Great idea, but I’d wait until after North Korea ceases to exist,
Since you can't predict the future or the outcome of future events, never act or wait to act based on an unknown future event.

>> He brought it on himself by not fighting back. Letting Sessions stay is the worst mistake of his career.

I’m getting the impression that President Trump has become intimidated by forces arrayed against him, to the point that he now hesitates to fire people whom he knows are undermining his agenda. If that’s true, it certainly doesn’t bode well for the future of our country.

Do 4 star generals go to Afghanistan?

The current general there, the one Trump wants to fire, is a four star.

I was pondering the same thing. Trump may well be hemmed in by forces so many and strong that he can’t get out in any one direction. Getting McMaster out of the NSC seems like an easy move. The negative flood of stories about McMaster in the last 48 hours would seem to indicate someone wants him out.
