The honeymoon seems to be ending between retired Gen. James N. Mattis and Donald Trump’s transition team amid an increasingly acrimonious dispute over who will get top jobs in the Defense Department — and who gets to make those decisions.

Good, Mattis is a good honest warrior, he will clash with people when he thinks they are wrong. We need more of this and a lot less going with the flow sort of mentality.

Don't know who, in the transition team, would be arguing with Mattis! This is the one guy that has seen the world as a leader, knows how to recognize useless people and can recognize incompetence! It's not like he is clueless, regarding the Department of Defense, or for that matter, much of anything else! I never had the honor to serve under him, but have quite a few friends that have and love him, would follow him to gates of hell and beyond. He is not the type of leader to put up with pandering bullshit civilian handlers will try to saddle his department with.

SP5 Christine Conley - then you know nothing of the type of people he's taking on for his cabinet.

Trump is not the bashful thin skinned sock puppet that obama was, he is an actual leader, who has actually run real organizations. That is why he is so successful.
