He's ok for a 4 star. His biggest claim is that every service memeber holds him as a deity. He's just a warriors type of guy loved by his men and decent at his job. There was actually a big push by a lot of service members to get him to run this election but he refused.

Many of his quotes have become Marine doctrine.

Yes, we were taught that in boot camp in 2007. Didn't know it was from him at the time.

yes PLEASE

>implying Trump would appoint someone who requires a Congressional waiver to serve

>>32063545
It's a Republican controlled Congress

>Implying Republican Congress wouldn't fast track that shit

>>32063458
The ODA fucked up on thier end by not telling anyone the number of casualties or even if they were still in combat. Mattis originally refused solely because of a lack of information.

He continued to refuse still due to a fear of the attack being diversionary. For all he knew, the second he sent Marines away to try to get to the ODA, an attack could then begin on the undermanned base.

Mattis was given a tough call but it was a logical call to make. Sometimes the best call is still ones that result in the loss of life. War is Hell.

Republicans don't like Trump, both parties hate him.

>>32063747
Doesn't mean they'll dislike Mattis.

>>32063747
They may dislike Trump to varying degrees, but they will want people in his cabinet that they will like, and Mattis is definetly well recieved everywhere. The Republicans will get a Secretary of Defense who gives no fucks about gender quotas, Stress Cards, or Political Correctness.
