The more I hear about this guy, the more I like him.

McMaster for president in 2024.

Now that he's famous, he ought to publish his 1996 dissertation Distrust, Deceit, and Disaster : Lyndon Johnson, Robert McNamara, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Americanization of the Vietnam War, 1963-1965. It sounds as though it would be a solid contribution to the history of the Vietnam War.

Airborne!

This pick seems so much smarter than Flynn. I don’t think Flynn was ready for prime time.

Flynn was almost a patronage pick. He was onboard the Trump Train from day one. His appointment was partly payback for his loyal support. Then it became clear that he just couldn’t handle the job.

McMaster, so far, seems to be a much more serious pick.

I’m pleased that we have a man of substance like General McMaster as National Security Advisor, as opposed to a grandstanding blowhard like John Bolton.
