      Listen. Generals Mattis & Kelly are not our friends. They may be leaving the Trump administration under duress, but these men have orchestrated & presided over two of the harshest, most bigoted years in modern American history. Be careful who you listen to right now.

      There are a lot folks lauding them right now, and for them, your remarks are right on point. For the rest of us, these resignations just make clear what an utter cluster-eff this Administration is and that is legitimately frightening.

      Yeah, when the last adults leave the room, even if they are evil, that is telling. They are choosing to give up a lot of power, and the option to continue to be evil, because the person in charge is THAT unhinged. That's the real story here.

      I agree that is telling indeed. I just reject the notion that they are our friends or heroes of some sort for leaving. Know what I mean?

          They’re not our “friends” but we have a common interest in not delvolving into a banana republic. If firefighters show up at my house, I’m not gonna ask their political leanings while they put out the flames.

          The firefighters will put out the fires. I don't think the generals were doing that.

          That's a very optimistic view. I read Mattis' resignation letter as such that he absolutely was putting out the worst fires

          I agree on both fronts. Anytime the decency or IQ mean drops it’s an L. Though, tbh, I’m not sure Kelly leaving moves the numbers much.

          Why is Mattis seen in a negative light in your opinion?

          No one said that Shaun. What ppl are saying is the last person with some sense is resigning. Please quit making it something it's not.
