Mad dog not such a mad dog then getting out while he still can
This getting out of syria will be the biggest mistake and will prob lead to the slaughter of the Kurds by the turks and leave Syria open up to russia and iran
It was only a matter of time after the Syria announcement, everyone knows the withdrawal of troops is a bad idea, a general (can't remember his name), said on tv the other day that they were something like 20% through training, so clearly not ready for this.
He's fulfilling a campaign promise and not considering the consequences, it's utterly ridiculous.
Trump described it as retirement - Mattis simply said he was stepping down. His comments about treating allies with respect and having over 40 years experience are damning as are his comments about China and Russia.
This resignation is causing widespread concern as it removes the last remaining adult voice that Congress thought could temper the wilder military moves that Trump might make. All eyes will be on who he nominates to replace Mattis and that person can expect his Senate Hearings to be a tough examination of how he will manage Trump.
He’s just given a speech and included in his comments that one of the things they have a problem with at the border is coyotes. Yep a $5Bn wall to stop coyotes.
