Right now on reddit (r the donald) there is a big divide with easily 40% of the posters sad and confused as to why Mattis resigned, some even hinting they think it's all over. The mods are censoring many comments with 1,000 upvotes to contain the opinions. Some are saying Trump lied blatantly by saying Mattis is retiring (he's probably retiring after resigning we don't know the details yet), others are saying Trump did the right thing... there is a huge variety of responses. Point I want to make is there was a cult of personality about General Mattis as if he was a god of war and infallible. A warrior monk who knows everything. He is obviously a smart and great man, so is Trump though. But we voted for Trump and not Mattis.
I trust Trump to do what's best for America. I know his awareness is higher than the majority of the best, and his gut is pure. Seems if Mattis wanted to tell Trump he disrespected him he would have not said in his resignation letter that he deserved a commander in line with his vision. Do you see how professional that is for Mattis to say that? How he places the mission above all? How it has to have congruency? Can't have a successful flight with a co-pilot who wants to go in another direction. Someone who disrespected our POTUS wouldn't qualify his reasons for resignation this way in my opinion.
Don't let all the noise make you think anything has become bad. In fortune 500 companies c suite executives are hired all the time to achieve specific goals and when they achieve it or can't achieve it, they move on. His cabinet is no different. Trump is solid and we need to be solid with him so he can tackle cultural marxism at home and globalism abroad. If you see someone being confused about all this, educate them that we are bringing the troops home just as promised. Don't let enemies try to exploit this to make people lose steam... it's unfair to those who would lose steam, because the train can't be stopped so they might as well be excited along with us.

They do. Trumps awareness is like a 3rd dimensional ball rolling on a 2d world. The 2d world just sees a circle.
