    Mattis views do not align with President Trumps'..so it's time to go.He will be replaced with another patriot..

    Mattis is stepping down after the president on Wednesday ordered that the U.S. withdraw its troop presence in Syria....and war-hawk Nancy Pelosi also opposes the move..She wants troops to stay longer and allow more American lives to be lost in a battle we should not have been in ,,in the first place..

    I guess, if both of them oppose getting out of Syria they will really oppose President Trump's plan to start the reduction of American forces in Afghanistan.

    More than 7,000 American troops will begin to return home from Afghanistan in the coming weeks...The move will come as the first stage of a phased drawdown and the start of a conclusion to the 17-year war ..

    The Syria conflict, now in its eighth year and U.S. military presence in Syria has not been authorized by Congress..  Yet, House speaker-designate Nancy Pelosi favors U.S. military presence in Syria.. Our continue presence in Syria carries significant risks one being the loss of more of our military personal..let alone an increase in military expenditures...

    Instead of Pelosi calling for U.S. military presence in Syria she should first be calling for Congress to formally authorize it.

    In 2014 this same Nancy PelosI backed legislation that authorized President Obama to train and equip Syrian rebels against Islamic terrorist groups ..saying at the time that the legislation does not authorize the use of U.S. combat forces in the region ..

    Democrats, Pelosi said,she doesn't support any use of American troops in Syria ...

    “I don’t think the American people are up for it,” Pelosi said. “I don’t that it would even achieve success to send troops in. But whatever it is, I’m against it.”

    Pelosi added, “The worse it gets, the less reason I think we should send in troops. It’s just an endless flywheel.”

    So,now 4 years later ...under President Trump she's all in on keeping troops in Syria..

    Obviously Nancy Pelosi is showing signs of dementia/ Alzheimers, at times during resent interviews she cannot formulate full sentences and constantly repeats herself..the 78-year-old congresswoman behaved like a senile senior and it's getting worse..

    Hey Slim, Vladimir Putin shares the same view as you and Donald J Trump.

    President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia on Thursday hailed the decision by President Trump to withdraw United States forces from Syria, calling it “correct” because the American troops were not needed.

    Instead of Pelosi calling for U.S. military presence in Syria she should first be calling for Congress to formally authorize it.

    In 2014 this same Nancy PelosI backed legislation that authorized President Obama to train and equip Syrian rebels against Islamic terrorist groups ..saying at the time that the legislation does not authorize the use of U.S. combat forces in the region ..

    Democrats, Pelosi said,she doesn't support any use of American troops in Syria ...

    “I don’t think the American people are up for it,” Pelosi said. “I don’t that it would even achieve success to send troops in. But whatever it is, I’m against it.”

    Pelosi added, “The worse it gets, the less reason I think we should send in troops. It’s just an endless flywheel.”

    So,now 4 years later ...under President Trump she's all in on keeping troops in Syria..

    Obviously Nancy Pelosi is showing signs of dementia/ Alzheimers, at times during resent interviews she cannot formulate full sentences and constantly repeats herself..the 78-year-old congresswoman behaved like a senile senior and it's getting worse..


    Hey Slim, Vladimir Putin shares the same view as you and Donald J Trump.

    President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia on Thursday hailed the decision by President Trump to withdraw United States forces from Syria, calling it “correct” because the American troops were not needed.

    Slim, if Pelosi bashing is your best contribution to this thread, perhaps you are ready for a holiday break.

    At what point in the next year will the " WINNING TEAM " realize there losing or are they even capable this  ? At this point the other nine candidates look a heck of a lot more mentally stable! Even Bridge gate Christie redeemed himself by saying, No I'm to busy

    Atta boy, Slim. Blame Obama for a three year old involvement while ignoring the seventeen year old Afghanistan GWB war your hero also wants to abandon. As long as the war is a Retardlican war, no need to say anything.

    an_laugh Obama's War?

    This Afghanistan fiasco started in earnest with the RR of terror and has not let up for the most part since.

    Nothing like partisan falsities to convince yourself you are superior.

    You fellows need to keep up...no none in this thread said that the fighting in Afghanistan was Obama's war..In fact President Trump is not ending the fighting in Afghanistan he is drawing down troops..he is ending the fighting in Syria.. Syria ..

    The conflict in Syria without debate is Obama's war ...Can anyone in here dispute this ? 

    If you can lets hear it...................

    In fact, Obama's legacy is ...that during his presidency we have been at war longer than President GWBush, or any other American president.

    ..and all this under a Nobel Peace Prize president..Who could do worse?

    OK, Slim; since you don't get the drift. Obama could not possibly been "at war" for more than ten years; his presidency and two years of Trump. GWB-Afghanistan is seventeen years old. Do the math. Retardlicans in office at the start and 10 of the seventeen years.

    confused

    I get the drift ..but you don't get the math..don't challenge me on this ..you will be wrong..

    The presidency of George W. Bush began at noon EST on January 20, 2001..

    The war in Afghanistan started on 7th October 2001..

    So the war in Afghanistan was for GWBush's presidency minus form Jan 20th 2001 till Oct 7th 2001..total of about 8 months ..So the Afghanistan war was going on for all but 8 months give or take  of Bush's term

    Under Obama America was at war in Afghanistan for the full 8 years of his presidency...thus during Obama's  presidency we have been at war longer that any other American president...including GWBush..

    Speaking of math; how did Obama have a full 8 years of Afghanistan? Did he declare war at his inauguration or did he inherit that war? You charge Bush with only seven years and four months of a war HE started and contend that makes him less responsible? Yep, great math. By the way, Obama got bin Laden, another problem Bush couldn't handle.

    We have been in Afghanistan since RR...lets not kid ourselves, in fact I bet even prior to RR, but for sure during his reign of terror.

    Clinton slowed down the military but really we havent left the region since RR and this facade of exiting Syria does not mean anything, we are still in the region and will keep staying in the region likely forever.

    Obama this or Bush that, its all silliness. The military has little political affiliation it will keep functioning irregardless of which party is in power.

    You are drifting way off what we are discussing.....but if you insist in giving Obama credit for getting someone ..he also got Muammar Qaddafi..that's another Obama intervention, that ended up a mess.....he toppled a tyrant ,,but the end result to his day is anarchy in Libya..

    As far as "Did he declare war at his inauguration or did he inherit that war?"      You don't inherit something ...when you bid on the job.

    Well, maybe, but I didn't use that expression for the first two years. I let the TRUMP FOREVER crowd back him up until they were headed downhill toward a cliff. Those still backing him come Hades or high water have earned the moniker. Dedicated Re__________ are abandoning their egotistical maniac, and hoping they can hang on until sanity again looks possible. It could be a long, steep, uphill climb for the GOP, but all the way there will be a few (nickname deleted) that want to put him on Mt. Rushmore.

    I still say the at the inauguration of Trump's successor that individual will be able to start with Gerald Ford's opening line. "My fellow Americans, our long national nightmare is over". 

    peace

    Jim Mattis : “The end date for my tenure is February 28, 2019, a date that should allow sufficient time for a successor to be nominated and confirmed,”

    President Trump:  Defense Secretary James Mattis' tenure will end January 1st 2019 .....he will leave the administration at the first of the year.....dragging it out for a couple of months is not good..........

     After Obama fired him President Trump gave him a second chance.....but it didn't work out..
