Gen. Mattis denounces Trump

In union, there is strength

Former Trump Administration Secretary of Defense Gen. James Mattis, who resigned in December 2018, has studiously remained silent about his opinions of this president. Until now:

“Donald Trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the American people — does not even pretend to try. Instead, he tries to divide us. We are witnessing the consequences of three years of this deliberate effort. We are witnessing the consequences of three years without mature leadership. We can unite without him, drawing on the strengths inherent in our civil society. This will not be easy, as the past few days have shown, but we owe it to our fellow citizens; to past generations that bled to defend our promise; and to our children.”
