Thanks. I don't normally pay CNN much more mind than any other american news media; I prefer The Guardian, but that's a very well done article.

Predictably, Trump fired back with a tweet calling Mattis "overrated". He also added another lie by saying he came up with his "Mad Dog" nickname. That was given to him by his troops in Afghanistan and Iraq. I know it wasn't Trump because I found a reference to it in a 2006 article.

He's just an asshole.

Trying to turn around everything to his advantage.

In the history books they should just have one line for him. "Twat, died unloved and destitute."

Sociopath: Rewrites history to suit his personal memory, especially when it's unfavourable. He's just deplorable.
