    How many ex Generals has he appointed to his cabinet ?

    Three so far:
    Secretary of Defense - retired Marine General James Mattis
    National Security Advisor - retired Army Lt. General Michael Flynn
    Secretary of Homeland Security - retired Marine General John Kelly

    Really have to keep an eye on this administration..
    What kind of people with what kind of experience would you prefer to be in charge of defense or security? I, for one, think that they are excellent choices.
    Even Flynn?
    Not a huge fan of Flynn. I was more meaning that people with prior military strategy experience are great choices. I do think I that Mattis is a good pick though.

    Having this many military people is a horrible idea. Maybe having one for the military perspective on things is reasonable, but that mindset surrounding trump with his ineptitude about foreign relations is bad news. The odds of the US starting another war just went up significantly.

    But not all three were members of his cabinet at the same time or appointed together. Also the Secretary of the VA has always been someone from the military. So I expect the Cheeto to select another former general for that post. As of now, there are the generals in this cabinet than any presidential cabinet since WWII.
  • Possibly. What it is for certain though is moronic as hell.

    So soon to be National Security Advisor Flynn said last August that Arabic signs were along the US Mexican border to guide state sponsored terrorists and radicalized Muslims into the US. This bonkers crap is pretty much going to be a daily occurance now, huh.

    Forget their political views for a minute. Your first complaint is with their age, race and sex? What if they stood for what you believed in, would that still be a problem?
