Right “conservatives” are panicking. Depends on how you define conservatives. These creatures in this picture are big government neocons and Bush REPUBLICANS and are conservative legends in their own minds and resumes only.

If Mattis can’t support the Presidents foreign policies he needed to go to the house. Mattis is still defending the Post-WWII world order which is in the process of crumbling and Trump is a part of that. Tillerson was the same way, defend what you know, but what they know is past it’s prime and clearly isn’t working. They want to manage American decline rather than stop and reverse it. They failed to think outside the box.

They kind of remind me of the group of leaders in the 1960’s-1970’s who went with the notion we must learn to live with the USSR and accept it’s dominance so we can survive-detente, which only increased Soviet aggression. But they didn’t know anything else to try until Reagan came along and said in regard to the Soviets: we win and they lose. Reagan had to fight the same kind of backward thinking but was ultimately proven correct. I like Mattis but his letter bordered on insubordination I thought.
