Retired Marine Corps General Jim Mattis, who served for two years as President Trump's Secretary of Defense before resigning, says that political divisiveness is a danger to America. He joined "CBS This Morning" to talk about his resignation, and his new book, "Call Sign Chaos."

I did as well as I could fo as long as I could... Whenmy concrete solution and strategic advice, especially keeping faith with our allies, no longer resonated, it was time to resign... --- Jim Mattis

It appears that TRUMP did not listen to his own hand picked General because he know's it all.

Not true Ron. Mattis refused to criticize the President, in spite of the determined effort of these 3 reporters to get him to say something negative.

News Flash Steve, saying something negative about Ttump is not the reason why Jim Mattis turned in his resignation Steve, Trump was no longed listening to Jim Mattis and he told you that in this interview, was you paying any attention?

Mattis said he told Trump he deserves to have someone more in line with his thinking. Mattis was spot on. The conduct of these reporters was detestable.

Mattis will have a much better interview with Martha McCallum tonight at 7.

Now you saw the honor of a man in Jim Mattis that Trump would not listen to and that is the point, so Gen. Jim Mattis moved on. Don't you get it Steve?

Like this lie that Trump told about the HURRICANE DORIAN: TRUMP SAYS ALABAMA WILL BE HIT BY STORM, NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAYS IT WON'T.

The National Weather Service (NWS) had to quickly reassure people that Alabama would not be hit by Hurricane Dorian after President Donald Trump mistakenly said that the state would be in the firing line for the Category-5 storm heading westwards from the Caribbean.

He tweeted: "In addition to Florida – South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama, will most likely be hit (much) harder than anticipated," the president tweeted on Sunday.

Meteorologist James Spann was curt in his assessment of Trump's comment, tweeting to his 415,000 followers: "Alabama will not be impacted by Dorian in any way."

Trump also caused confusion when he said that he was uncertain if he had heard of a Category-5 storm before, telling reporters that such a hurricane "is something that I don't know that I've even heard the term, other than I know it's there."

However despite Trump's assertion, Hurricane Dorian is in fact the fourth Meteorologist James Spann was curt in his assessment of Trump's comment, tweeting to his 415,000 followers: "Alabama will not be impacted by Dorian in any way."

Trump also caused confusion when he said that he was uncertain if he had heard of a Category-5 storm before, telling reporters that such a hurricane "is something that I don't know that I've even heard the term, other than I know it's there."

However despite Trump's assertion, Hurricane Dorian is in fact the fourth Category-5 storm to have threatened the U.S. since he took office in January 2017.to have threatened the U.S. since he took office in January 2017.

Where was Trump during Four Category-5 storm that hit The U.S. coast? or was this a LIE too?

Was he listening to the head of his National Weather Service?

What does any of that have to do with General Mattis Ron? Did you really expect a business man and a military man would not be like oil and water?

Tuesday, September 3rd 2019 at 7:52PM
Steve Williams
No!!! Not when the business man hand picked the military man to handle all things Military, which is out of the business man scope of expertise.

Mattis worked for Trump for 2 years Ron. I changed jobs every couple of years too, so what?

Tuesday, September 3rd 2019 at 10:34PM
Steve Williams
Do you know what Mattis is doing now Ron?

Tuesday, September 3rd 2019 at 10:35PM
Steve Williams
What ever it is, I hope it makes him happy OK!
