The real test will be an international crisis involving our military and its use. The real fear is how Trump & his boys could screw it up. The Yemen raid is an example of how not to do it. What could happen to our soldiers is too scary to imagine.

the whole "we have all these nukes, why can't we use them" comment that drumph apparently made last year that terrifies me....

(40,209 posts)2. Wasn't General Mattis suppose to be the grown up?
Wasn't he suppose to be the adult in the room who would be the cooler head in a crisis? Meanwhile he was standing over Trump when Trump signed the EO on the ban. He also reportedly told Trump that Obama wasn't bold enough to ok the Yemen raid. Mattis was suppose to be the one to keep it together during an international crisis. He seems more like a bad influence.
