Here’s one. I was pleased with the selection of Kelly and Mattis, but it seems they didn’t understand they were to SUPPORT the Presidents agenda.

Mattis did support Trump in the beginning. He professionally resigned over disagreement of Syria policy, but Trump fired him anyway

Trump says he 'essentially' fired Mattis (who actually resigned in protest)
President Donald Trump claimed Wednesday he "essentially" fired his former Pentagon chief James Mattis, despite a resignation letter in which Mattis wrote he was departing because he didn't share Trump's worldview.

LTC Eugene Chu Agree with your statement, but as I recall, the President is in charge of foreign affairs, not the SECDEF. Mattis did the right thing and resigned.
