but Woodward's new book has a different account about the retired Marine's departure

Donald Trump has continued to assert that his former defense secretary was fired rather than voluntarily resigning, a claim contradicted by the renowned journalist Bob Woodward's new book.

Speaking at an ABC News town hall on Tuesday, Trump criticized Jim Mattis, a retired four-star Marine Corps general, as one of many "disgruntled former employees" who left his administration under adverse circumstances.

"Highly overrated general, didn't do the job," Trump said of the highly revered retired officer.

Mattis announced his resignation in December 2018, citing disagreements with the president's decision to withdraw US troops from northern Syria. The withdrawal, which Mattis strongly opposed, abandoned the US's Kurdish allies in the region.
