A very solid pick.

That's a much better pick than I was expecting. My favorite professor in college was what I would term a "military intellectual," and there's hardly a finer breed of soldier in our armed forces. Good luck to Gen. McMaster, I hope he and other patriots like Mattis and Kelly can keep the ship of state afloat with so many ideologues and amateurs bouncing around the White House.

The fact Bolton has gotten his paws on the administration in any capacity is extremely depressing.

Holy cow I agree with Eharding on something!

I wish you wouldn't compare Kelly to Mattis. Mattis is a literal massive FF, whereas Kelly is nearly as bad as Mike Pompeo.

Is there something about Kelly I'm unaware of? Seems like a no-BS Marine to me

Mattis is my favorite of the two, of course
