All networks are now reporting that Trump has picked mad dog mattis as secretary of defense! Woot!

"no war is over until the enemy says it's over. We may think it over, we may declare it over, but in fact, the enemy gets a vote"
 
:rolleyes: Figures trump would pick a guy like this.

"You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil. You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway. So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them. Actually, it's a lot of fun to fight. You know, it's a hell of a hoot. It's fun to shoot some people. I'll be right upfront with you, I like brawling."

What would you prefer defending your family ?
 
Yet another step towards military dictatorship. The Secretary of defense role was meant to be held by a civilian. We already have military input with the joint chiefs of staff.

he's a nationbuilder. He's known for COIN (counter-insurgency) .Compare that to counter-terrorism.
Counter terrorism is "whack a mole" -get in get out, and repeat as needed.

Counterinsurgency is buying in to another nation's societal problems as a means to go after terrorism...it requires a higher level of engagement

He's opposite what Trump claims to be ( non-interventionist)...at least he's against waterboarding & torture.

Either one or them will have to modify their approach or they'll be banging heads on policy.

But I also get the sense Trump picked Mattis because he wants to signal that The Big Stick is back. The Stick doesn't entail Hillary-esque mindless intervention so much as a military that would be used only as a last resort.

And God help you if we do.
