Do the right thing, Mr. President – and stand up to the bullies.

NO, let's beat the crap out of the "bullies"... They so richly deserve it.

We need him in Tennessee to replace the leftist RINO trash infesting the Governor’s office.

DJ, how would bowing out of a Cabinet fight make it possible at all that he could become governor? The TN leftist Republicans have been around a long time, certainly since Howard Baker.

Do the right thing, Mr. President - and stand up to the bullies.

“Push” came and went on Clinton’s watch. Now in the aftermath if not continuing debacle of Obama we’re into “Shove” phase. A clear Shove needs to happen or the bullies will never stop stealing our lunch money. Alternative is hook & jab awaiting around the corner.

He was considered a favorite before the Cabinet pick.

Folks acting like Trump encouraged him to drop out - I would imagine Trump told him he had his backing, but wouldn’t push him to expose himself and his family to a anti-Christian witch hunt.

The most important thing President Trump can do for his appointees is stand up and help them through the Senate process. IF this means throttling ol Chicken Neck McConnell then DO IT. Do not let these appointees be treated like shiite and spat on.

I wonder if this is the way President Trump treated his new employees prior to being elected. Hire them in, do not provide a mentor and throw them to the wolves. Can lose some good talent that way.

Obviously, by his success, that was not the case, why he is allowing this to happen now is a mystery.

Political Correctness is the death nail to MAGA.

It takes mountains of courage to stand against it, PC is a never ending barrage of deadly missiles all of which are fired with pin point accuracy and the ammo is never expended it can be used over and over again.

Yes, the Gov. cannot even get education right. I am no fan of our Senators either. Has Alexander ever had a real job?

He had planned to run for Haslan’s Governors seat. I will vote for him if he still does.

He is a WP grad and an MD. That is rare. I say we need a real combat arms type like infantry, armor or artillery. The current guy is queer. Obama sure trashed our country.

“This isn’t about not standing up for someone or someone’s religious beliefs, this is about doing what’s best for the future of the Army and the soldiers who fight for our country,” the official told me.

"The official" seems to be saying that that doing what is right for the Army and for the soldiers requires adherence to homosexual, transgender, and pro-Moslem ideology.
