He goes on to contrast the American ethos of unity with Nazi ideology...
I don’t care about his whole stupidity about dividing our nation. He clearly has not been paying attention to what happened with George Bush in the 2000s, and how we had TWO major waves of riots in 2015 under Barack Obama.
What bothers me is his absurd claim about use of military for extreme riots. We’ve had presidents send in actual troops, and in 2017 when Trump talked about sending in national guard under federal control to quell rising violence in Chicago, newspapers reported that there were 12 times when the feds have done that, starting with Eisenhauer in 1957 for desegregation.
Most of the time, just like now with Trump’s “threat” which he will likely never have to follow through on, were to protect black people from white thugs.
In this case, we know that a good amount of the violence is started by whites. We think Antifa, they think White Nationalists. In either case though, the remedy is the same, go in and stop the white people from terrorizing black neighborhoods.
It is amazing how many democrats oppose this, and how many liberals cheer on what they claim are white supremecists burning down affodable housing and looting black businesses.
Mattis you are a disgrace to America and the uniform you wore.
Did Biden promise him a cabinet position between diaper changes?
Salty like the Mustache Bolton.
Every day, our Republic gets another knife in the back from the next salty traitor.
I’m not sure we’ll survive this.
Mattis is all talk and no action. He’s a pussy if there ever was one. He gave himself the nickname ‘mad dog’.
Mattis the aging homosexual can ESAD.
‘Effing phony!
James Mattis.. Well I guess the left has found their Lee.. So, when do we get it on..??
Go away Maddog. You may have served the country in combat but you are the one endangering by helping divide it.
Get over it, Jimbo. The President listened to your advice and rejected it. You worked for him, not vice versa.
It appears the ol' "mad dog Mattis" is a DOG that PI$$ES in his own food bowl.
Mattis is such a disappointment. I’m going to have to get rid of my “Be polite. Be professional. But have a plan to kill everyone you meet” coffee mug. Now, it just makes me sad.
When you are fired as a man, you gather your belongings, leave, don’t look back and shut the hell up. You were fired. Get a life.
A woman may do the opposite.
Of course having a man that couldn’t produce a legitimate
birth certificate wasn’t a threat to the Constitution. He
was never asked to confirm his citizenship. and his
papers were sealed.
Eh, no problem there huh Mattis.
I think it is more like the media/dem complex that has been working 24/7 for the last 4 years to divide America along a verity of faultlines. How on earth did such a moron become a USMC general? He’s a Bush and 0bama appointee, that should have been two big red flags for Trump that he was not to be trusted.
It’s really incredible how Trump’s holding a Bible at a burned-out Church has triggered the left, causing many of them to come out of the closet. I have to wonder if it’s the knee-jerk Dracula-Crucifix reaction when the evil encounters the Holy —OR— is it a panic reaction to Trump setting himself up as the Law and Order President?
It is sad to see that the man once known as the “MadDog” has now chosen to become the “YappingB**ch”. Here’s a little hint for you Jimbo, you are a FORMER General, a FORMER Marine, and a FORMER SecDef. You are none of those things now.
Unless and until you are prepared to drop the Monk’s robes and take on the mantle of actually being the President of this great nation, maybe it is time for you to just STFU. Oh, and when you do become President, how about we throw in a few little annoyances to make it interesting?
Like having your intelligence agencies, who you are supposed to rely on for accurate, well-timed information to guide decision making, conduct illegal surveillance and politically motivated investigations of your campaign before the election and continue those investigations of your staff even after you are duly elected by the American people. How about we throw in a news media whose journalistic credentials can be traced back directly to Joseph Goebbels?
How about, just for s**ts and giggles, we throw in a worldwide pandemic whose origins trace directly back to one of America’s primary adversaries in the world and whose existence was cloaked by denials until it was certain to affect the American population? How about we throw in riots throughout the country sparked by the illegal, immoral, disgusting actions of men who wore the clothing of police officers; but, who never should have been allowed to wear a badge. On top of that, why don’t we add a subversive, terroistic group whose stated intention is to bring down this country to initiate and coordinate riots, looting, vandalism, and murder under the cover of legitimate protests against the actions of these stupid men?
Tell us, oh great philosopher, how would you have handled all of this any better than the man who is sitting in that hot-seat right now? Your pontificating has removed any shred of respect or regard that I ever had for you. The self-aggrandizing and self-promoting tone of your article is not worthy of a man who has held the positions of trust that you have been given. Unless and until you are ready to actually walk the walk instead of just talking the talk, maybe it is time to take the 30 pieces of silver that you most certainly got for writing this hit-piece, take your worthless butt back to your cloister, and contemplate your freaking navel or something. We are done with you.
Mad dog went mad.
