Well I know every Marine in my newsfeed was excited. Personally I'm hoping this means we can put an end to the social experiment crap and go back to the warfighting mentality. He has a reputation and carries a lot of respect. If his appointment makes our enemies think twice about messing with us, then OOHRAH to that.

Tecumseh was a great leader and a great businessman. He dealt well with Outsiders in business. He had a huge family, his people were organized and functioned well according to what I've read.
This is what it takes to be a leader. This is what our soldiers must be each and every day in whatever capacity. They must stand as one man no matter personal beliefs. They do this in the heat of the battle.

Less war, more money. Historically we have seen, the more aggressive, ready to fight Hawks we have the fewer enemies we have wanting to fight us. We have plenty of people that believe Trump is ready to get us into a war and if we have fellow citizens believing that, Putin, N. Korea believe that and will want nothing of it.

You're absolutely correct Major.. back when Reagan ran, leaders of other countries didn't want him, they weren't sure what he might be like and didn't want to take that chance.. a couple of our planes were clearly in int'l airspace and Libya had extended beyond actual limit.. our guys shot them down!
Libya found out we didn't frig around..
Foreign countries are petitioning, they don't want Mattis either, they learned what Marines are like..

Ithat's good.. right now we don't have the ordinance we need. Obama got rid off some good ordinance in the name of evening things up with those that were not as well equipped as us. We had really good advanced missile systems..
He wanted to not replace our stock, reduce explosive capability to give an even keel.. he was taking care of his jihadi brethren.. to give them a chance to regroup.. letting them now we were waiting for them.. that amounts to aiding and abetting comforting the enemy. Charges he needs to be indicted with..
