We've humiliated ourselves as a nation by electing the likes of Trump only 8 years after Dubya left office. We've confirmed to the world that way too many of us are anti-education, obese, warmongers with no interest in defending the weak or oppressed. We inspire nobody.

It's a known fact in the Marine Corps that General Mattis does not appreciate being called "mad dog" by anyone other than his troops or members of the corps. Just sayin.
