Mattis humor

[bullwinkle]

got a large laugh from me.

Former Defense Secretary Gen. James Mattis roasts Donald Trump: 'I earned my spurs on the battlefield'

 

[Olde Europe]

Yep, came as a surprise to me, I have to admit.

Also of note:

But Mattis quickly moved on from the jokes and picked up a more serious tone, citing a speech that Abraham Lincoln gave in 1838 to the Young Men's Lyceum of Springfield, Ill.

In it, Lincoln "observed great nations crumble for one of two reasons," the first being foreign invasion, Mattis said, which the future president dismissed as "inconceivable."

The second, he said, paraphrasing Lincoln, "was corrosion from within – the rot, the viciousness, the lassitude, the ignorance."

"Anarchy is one potential consequence of all this. The other is the rise of an ambitious leader, unfettered by conscience, or precedent or decency, who would make himself supreme," he said.​

Thank you for posting the Lincoln quote. However, now we can look forward to a tweet calling Lincoln a low life loser who got himself shot by a patriot.

Actually Lincoln was one of our worst presidents, he suspended habeas corpus... unforgivable.
… And he was an Indian butcher. Lincoln: No Hero to Native Americans
Lol

Well of course Trump knows more about warfare than Mattis. He has all the Flash Gordon comic books and has figured out how to take down Ming the Merciless in as short a time as he conquered those ISIS that the Kurds stole credit for confining. What was it Trump said? He conquered ISIS in a month? What a leader!!

Trump is not a General. Trump has never been a General. Trump will never be a General. A Commander in Chief is not a General.

trump isn't and has never been in the military. He had his chance in the 60s but he got a doctor to say he had bone spurs.

trump isn't a general. Has never been a general and will never be a general.

trump is an insult to everyone who has been in the military.

 

[airplanemechanic]

No Trump isn't a general, he's above general, he's CIC.
