“That nickname was given to me by the press, and some of you may have experienced similar occasions with the press where perhaps they didn’t get it quite right,” Mattis said during his testimony.
Mattis acquired the nickname “Mad Dog” – a moniker that is not used by people who know him, friends say – after he made comments such as “be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet” and “a good soldier follows orders, but a true warrior wears his enemy’s skin like a poncho.”
But news reports referred to Mattis by the moniker — which he has publicly said he does not like — as far back as 2004, when he was commanding general of the 1st Marine Division
Just tuned into the news after a few hours and haven’t caught up on this thread but Mattis go fuck yourself. History is written by the winners and whoever wins this will show you to be the ■■■■ you are. This blatant attempt to try and make history look back fondly on you isn’t fooling anyone. Yeah yeah the news is giving you some feelgood but thats only because thats how they make they make money. You are a complete piece of shit.
I have a pretty substantial amount of my net worth tied up in STONKS and tbh fam, I haven’t even looked at what the market is doing since COVID-19 hit the scene.
I can’t imagine more than 10-15% of the country gives a flying fuck about the stock market, and among that group approximately 100% of people know who they’re voting for in November. I see no way the stock market cheerleading helps Trump.
Insert pony-in-bunker joke, but Trump said he wasn’t taken to the bunker; he went down there to inspect it very briefly because it might be needed some day.
that’s smart. just completely gaslight him so losing the election is an unbelievable surprise and he’s in that state while still president for like 9 weeks
