President Donald Trump’s announcement on Thursday that James Mattis would be stepping down as secretary of defense in February was a shock to many conservatives ― and not in a good way. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said in a statement that he was “distressed that [Mattis] is resigning due to sharp differences with the president on ... key aspects of America’s global leadership.”

HUFFPO people, HUFFPO.
If Turtle is upset, things are great.
You mean it’s time for globalists to panic.
A little boy from the Huffy Post is worried about “conservatives”. What is the world coming to?
HuffPo is a joke
Not a funny one, but a joke nonetheless.
Bull effing sheet. It is time to celebrate. That damn military wants to control the goddam world and it is too goddam expensive.
While I am a bit sad that Gen. Mattis is leaving, there are more out there and honestly, he made a better General than SecDef.
Yes, you can watch David Frum (one of the prime architects of the crazy Second Iraq War when he worked for GW Bush) “panicking’ on CBC coverage of Election Night 2016, where he was presented as the resident “conservative” commentator. He is only exceeded in his venom toward Trump by some female commentator, who is an avowed far leftist. The only thing “conservative” about Frum is his desire for constant war (the fighting not including him, of course) and for most conservatives, including myself, we don’t want any part of it or of him. Bravo to Trump on Afghanistan and Syria.
Glad they could be bothered to stop running essays from spoiled brat unemployed freelancers about how they hate their own families for being conservative for five minutes.
Mattis is a creature of Washington. Good riddance to him.
Anytime the turtle gets distressed means that conservatism is winning.
It makes me laugh. They screamed when we sent troops in and now they are screaming because the troops are coming home. It is plain and simple. They are against everything Trump does. Nothing new!!
General Anthony Tata, author, “Dark Winter.” I think the President is making the exact right move in Syria. All the geniuses who are protesting the withdrawal of troops from Syria are the same geniuses who cooked the books on ISIS intelligence and gave rise to ISIS.”
I’m not panicking.
Why are the leftists suddenly all for unilateral wars?
TURDle is putting on a kabuki show. Average sec of defense days in office is 700 days, Mad Dem Mattis will be leaving at 700+ days too.........nothing new here.
Because a Democrat globalist neocon quit because he wasn’t allowed to set our foreign policy? Lmao
You mean NeoCons, not conservatives. They didn’t vote for Trump.
Mattis is a homo/trans freak coddler who wants illegal endless wars. Time for him to go.
The Deep State is in Deep panic.
