Quoting: Yew Only intelligent people would realize that is a laughable type of assertion. I didnt read it as that, i read it as Trump is fueling it. Not sure if some of you remember but Trump said more than once people shouldn't be allowed to protest. Once during his campaign and once over Kapperdick. Now before you right wing dumbasses say something stupid, no i dont support Biden or any other corrupt piece of shit, in fact i supported Trump until he threatened to use military against peaceful US citizens. I still hope he is going to do the right thing and it looks like he has as it was only a threat but still, Trump doesn't like protests. |

Never has a sitting US President suffered such a hate campaign from Day One. I hope when he is out of Office he to takes to Social Media and keeps engaged with his followers. Then he can be surrounded by his own people. Dogsbollocks |

What did Obummer do to stop the police brutality and for BLM??? Nothing, thought so. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 78366089 United States 06/04/2020 08:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Re: Mattis tears into Trump: 'We are witnessing the consequences of three years without mature leadership' (CNN)Former Secretary of Defense James Mattis on Wednesday castigated President Donald Trump as "the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the American people" in a forceful rebuke of his former boss as nationwide protests have intensified over the death of George Floyd. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78991713 "Donald Trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the American people—does not even pretend to try. Instead he tries to divide us," Mattis said in a statement obtained by CNN. "We are witnessing the consequences of three years of this deliberate effort. We are witnessing the consequences of three years without mature leadership. We can unite without him, drawing on the strengths inherent in our civil society. This will not be easy, as the past few days have shown, but we owe it to our fellow citizens; to past generations that bled to defend our promise; and to our children." READ: Former Defense Secretary Mattis' statement on Trump and protests His pointed remarks follow more than a week of nationwide protests across the country calling for justice for Floyd, a black man who was killed last week by a white police officer in Minneapolis. In response, Trump earlier this week declared himself "your president of law and order" and vowed to return order to American streets using the military if widespread violence isn't quelled. The comments from Mattis are a significant moment for a man who has kept mostly silent since leaving the administration. The retired Marine general had been pressed many times to comment on Trump, troop policies, the Pentagon, and other current events and had always refused because he didn't want to get involved and be a contradictory voice to the troops. Instead, Mattis always insisted he had said everything he wanted to say in his resignation letter. And until a few days ago he had privately held to that view, but Mattis has become so distressed by the events of the last week that his views on speaking out changed. The remarks will be a significant moment for many service members who idolize the former defense secretary, who -- despite a career based on loyalty and respect for the military chain-of-command -- is sending troops the message that the country can unite without the President's lead. The President responded to Mattis in a series of tweets Wednesday night. "Probably the only thing Barack Obama and I have in common is that we both had the honor of firing Jim Mattis, the world's most overrated General. I asked for his letter of resignation, & felt great about. His nickname was 'Chaos', which I didn't like, & changed it to 'Mad Dog,' " Trump said on Twitter. [link to us.cnn.com (secure)] And Trump was praising General Mattis before and after the elections LOL, Mattis is a big thumb sucker that can't get over someone having more authority than himself. He can now say Trump is the one person keeping him up at nignt. |

He Ran this site and many others under T@V1St0K. Autists dug it all up. He headed up the Program out of Elgin air force base in Florida. They also found Trinitys DOD payments as a Contractor (under his real name which is auto-banned from posting on this site. And coincidentally he lives in Florida too, right by EAFB |

It's much easier to steal taxpayer dollars that way. |

Point him at an enemy and he’ll attack like a mad dog. But he failed in the political realm. He wanted to tell POTUS who to attack. He got butthurt when Trump said no to Syria and Iran.

And Sun Tzu's Art of War is his favorite book. He follows Chinese philosophy and teachings. Mattis...Art of War,.....based on Sun Tzu. In maintaining the practice of studying enemy commanders, Mattis follows the teachings of Sun Tzu, “When you are ignorant of the enemy but know yourself, your chances of winning or losing are equal.

Trump has show a lack of leadership during the rioting crisis. He hid in his bunker because Kusher et al. didn't want him to take control of the looting/rioting lest he offend the people of color ... as if any of them would vote for him anyway. YOU KNEW there would be rioting the second the Floyd situation emerged. He needed to go on the air immediately and give a strong speech and lay out that any violence would be met with force. Instead he let the shit spin out of control for several days. |
