The current story is that Mattis is writing his memoir and that got the media press corp really excited. You see, because Mattis left on rocky terms from the Trump administration, including a fairly forward resignation letter, the expectation was that he was going to blast Trump.
So you got headlines like The Man Who Couldn’t Take It Anymore from The Atlantic and The Man Trump Wishes He Were from The New York Times. You could almost see the foam forming around their collective mouths. They were about to get another tell all they could fluff for weeks, and if that meant rehabilitating a person they used to hate in James Mattis, then that was a price they were willing to pay.
Then something happened. While Mattis’ book laid into a President, it just so happened to be the wrong President in the media’s eyes. That would be Barack Obama.

The way the press treats this clown as some kind of sacred god to never be touched is absolutely hysterical.
Pre-election photos showed Obama with a halo.

“Media cancel James Mattis”
I didn’t read anything about the media actually “cancelling” him. Who had him scheduled as a guest and then cancelled?
He was on CNN the other day and the host tried his best to get Mattis to badmouth Trump and he refused.
General Mattis wrote this book in less than a year.
President Obama has been writing his book for almost three.
At this rate, there will never be an Obama memoir published.
