Wait and see.

He's going to kick arse on the greatest national security issue of our time and that's illegal immigration.

I'll take that and especially if he can keep his drug warrior bullshite to a minimum.

wasn't Mattis relatively hawkish?


He's more of a believer of fighting to win if you're going to go through the trouble.

Obviously, he has faith in military solutions to problems but that's doesn't make him a warmonger or even particularly hawkish.

I'm pro-Mattis but sounds like this isn't done according to the transition folks

It better get done. If Donald fricks up this no brainer, he'll really make a clusterfrick out of actual tough decisions.

This is EXACTLY what I was/am expecting. More of the same.

But keep on believing that because McDonald's changed shift managers they'll stop selling hamburgers and instead offer sushi.

Tx Tiger is a 9/11 truther and thinks jet fuel can melt steel beams. He's not worth conversing with seriously.
