Photo: Win McNamee/Getty Images Last evening, President Trump’s first Defense secretary, James Mattis, wrote a scathing op-ed describing his former boss as a threat to the Constitution and lacking the maturity to govern.
Second, Trump described Mattis as “the world’s most overrated general.” This is a very different assessment than the generous one Trump made upon Mattis’s retirement. It also raises questions as to why Trump hired Mattis in the first place. Since his career as a general entirely preceded his tenure as secretary of Defense, it would seem to be a major error by Trump that he selected the world’s most overrated general for such an important position.
Third, Trump undercut what is Mattis’s most valuable attribute by claiming that Trump himself came up with it. In fact, the nickname can be found in innumerable news accounts going back at least 20 years.
