I never got why Trump was spending so much time on stuff like getting Carrier to keep about 1400 jobs instead of staffing a govt with MAGA tigers.

He probably assumed that MAGA people would show up instead of deep staters. He has a small inner circle that he trusts, and he ended up relying on people like Sessions.

98-1 Kirsten Gillibrand voted no and Jeff Sessions didn’t vote.

Liberalism can infect even such as “Mad Dog” mattis. Liberalism destroys all it touches.

“As reported in Bob Woodward’s book FEAR earlier this year, Mattis even took it upon himself to actively ignore an order from President Trump to have Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad assassinated. “Let’s fucking kill him! Let’s go in,” Trump reportedly exclaimed to Mattis after a chemical attack on civilians in Khan Sheikhoun.”

Wasn’t keeping Bashar al-Assad in power what this Syrian war was all about? Maybe removing the reason would end the nonsense. On the other hand, the ME being what it is, the Syrians would just end up with another murdering strong man as president & there’d be another civil war a little further on.

Donald Trump... would mock Mattis by calling him... “Moderate Dog.”

So many LOLs!
