Donald Trump Picks Retired Marine Gen. James “Mad Dog” Mattis for Secretary of Defense
A FANTASTIC PICK!!!
Yesterday, at a post-election thank you tour stop in Cincinnati, Ohio, president-elect Donald Trump announced to the audience that he will be picking retired Marine Gen. James “Mad Dog” Mattis for Secretary of Defense. Mattis, 66, served more than four decades in the Marine Corps and as reported is known as one of the most influential military leaders of his generation, a strategic thinker who occasionally drew rebukes for his aggressive talk. Which makes him perfect to dismantle the PC nonsense that has spread to the military. Mattis is known for being a Marine’s marine. Even some on the Left were impressed by the selection. Rep. Adam Schiff (CA), the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, praised President-elect Donald Trump’s nomination of retired Marine Corp General James “Mad Dog” Mattis. I guarantee there were cheers across out military both here and abroad when this was announced. This is one impressive individual.
President-elect Donald Trump said Thursday he has chosen retired Marine Gen. James N. Mattis, who has said that responding to “political Islam” is the major security issue facing the United States, to be secretary of defense.
“We are going to appoint Mad Dog Mattis as our secretary of defense,” Trump told a rally in Cincinnati, the first stop on a post-election “thank-you tour.”
Trump joked that the media and audience should keep the news to themselves. “We are going to be announcing him Monday of next week,” Trump said. “Keep it inside the room.”
Mattis, who retired as chief of U.S. Central Command in 2013, has often said that Washington lacks an overall strategy in the Middle East, opting to instead handle issues in an ineffective one-by-one manner.
“Is political Islam in the best interest of the United States?” Mattis said at the Heritage Foundation in 2015, speaking about the separate challenges of the Islamic State and Iranian-backed terrorism. “I suggest the answer is no, but we need to have the discussion. If we won’t even ask the question, how do we even recognize which is our side in a fight?”
Best Mattis quotes from the Washington Free Beacon:
1. “I don’t lose any sleep at night over the potential for failure. I cannot even spell the word.”
2. “The first time you blow someone away is not an insignificant event. That said, there are some assholes in the world that just need to be shot.”
3. “I come in peace. I didn’t bring artillery. But I’m pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you fuck with me, I’ll kill you all.”
(San Diego Union Tribune)
4. “Find the enemy that wants to end this experiment (in American democracy) and kill every one of them until they’re so sick of the killing that they leave us and our freedoms intact.”
5. “Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet.” (more)

President-Elect Donald Trump Saves Jobs at Carrier … The Negotiator in Chief
A NOTE TO MSM AND OBAMA … HOW CAN SAVING JOBS FOR AMERICAN WORKERS BE A BAD THING?
President-elect Donald Trump has not even taken the oath of office yet and he has delivered on campaign promises (video). Not only has he saved Ford workers jobs, an act that went under-reported bt the MSM, he has also now saved 1000′s of jobs for American workers that were slated to move to Mexico by Carrier. Donald Trump and Mike Pence are supposed to travel to the Carrier plant and meet with the workers. This is a huge boost to the incoming president-elect’s presidency as he shows not only can he talk the talk, but he also delivers.
This is called a good start America!!!
This is how you gain credibility … doing what you say and promise
Donald Trump staked his credibility as a negotiator — the underpinning of his grand entrance to politics — on a very specific claim.
He wouldn’t just stop the trend of globalization and outsourcing. He’d convince Carrier — an Indianapolis-based air-conditioning manufacturer — to abandon its plans to eliminate more than 2,000 Hoosier jobs and shift its production to Mexico.
Well before even taking office, he’s delivered — Tuesday night the company announced it would keep about 1,000 of those jobs in Indiana.
A note to the MSM and to Democrats, the people who’s jobs were saved and those who will have their jobs saved in the future do not care how Trump got this deal done. They care that they have a job, they care they can feed their family, they care they can put gifts under the Christmas tree for their children and they care they will not be unemployed. DON’T YOU PEOPLE GET THIS? This is why Democrats, the Left, liberals and the MSM lost the last election. They do not connect, nor understand the American working people.
From Fox & Friends, take a good look at how real Americans feel about their job being saved, and they were a life-long Democrat
How sad, this is how a bitter and failure of a presidency reacts to success that they could not do in 8 years … they try and downplay the news

BET Founder & Democrat Bob Johnson Says, ‘I Never Thought Donald Trump was a Racist” (VIDEO)
THIS IS A DEMOCRAT’S PARTY WORST NIGHTMARE … TRUMP SUCCEEDING WITH BLACK AMERICA.
BET founder and Democrat Bob Johnson has nothing but words of praise for president-elect Donald Trump. Johnson stated that he did not believe that Trump was anti-African-American or a racist. This is certainly a different narrative than the liberal MSM has been spewing. It is a Democrat parties worst nightmare come true in Trump and Republicans make inroads with black America and the current black, Democrat monolithic vote is no more. Bob Johnson said he was offered a cabinet position, but turned it down.
“To me, I never thought Donald Trump, and I still don’t believe it today, was a racist. I don’t believe that he’s anti-African-American,” said Johnson, founder and chairman of The RLJ Cos. “For too long, the African-American community has been ignored by the Republicans because they thought we were always locked with the Democrats.”
Media mogul Bob Johnson, who met with President-elect Donald Trump earlier this month, told CNBC on Tuesday the post-election rally in the stock market has been a reaction to having a businessman in the White House.
The BET founder, a Democrat, also said on “Squawk Box” that he’s known Trump for years and believes Trump wants to work with African-Americans and all Americans to boost the economy.
“To me, I never thought Donald Trump, and I still don’t believe it today, was a racist. I don’t believe that he’s anti-African-American,” said Johnson, founder and chairman of The RLJ Cos. “For too long, the African-American community has been ignored by the Republicans because they thought we were always locked with the Democrats.”
Trump is not in either camp, Johnson said: “Certainly not an establishment Republican [and] he’s not a Democrat, he was open. And he’s a business guy. And business guys tend to look at where’s the opportunity for a benefit.”
The market is right to be optimistic about the possibility of Trump’s policy proposals kicking U.S. economic growth into a higher gear, said Johnson, who had supported Hillary Clinton during the campaign.

Donald Trump Names Rep. Tom Price as next Health and Human Services Secretary
SAY GOODBYE TO OBAMACARE … THE PRICE IS RIGHT.
President-elect Donald Trump has chosen Rep. Tom Price (R-GA) to be the next head of the department of Health and Human Services. Price is a fierce critic of the not-so Affordable Care Act, known as Obamacare. Look for Price to repeal and replace the failure that is Obamacare. As reported at the Politico, Price is an orthopedic surgeon and has been a longtime opponent of the Affordable Care Act, which the president-elect has pledged to repeal and replace. The Georgia congressman was an early supporter of Trump’s and endorsed him for president last May.
President-elect Donald Trump has chosen Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga.), a fierce critic of the Affordable Care Act and a proponent of overhauling the nation’s entitlement programs, to lead the department of Health and Human Services.
In a press release first thing on Tuesday, Trump announced his selection of Price, a third-generation doctor who chairs the House Budget Committee and became a fervent champion of Trump’s candidacy. In naming him to join his cabinet, the president-elect called Price “exceptionally qualified to shepherd our commitment to repeal and replace Obamacare and bring affordable and accessible healthcare to every American.”
Trump also named Seema Verma, a health-care consultant who was the architect of Medicaid changes in Vice president-elect Mike Pence’s home state of Indiana, to run a crucial section of HHS: the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
As HHS secretary, Price would be the nation’s top health official and the incoming administration’s point person for dismantling the sprawling 2010 health-care law, which Trump promised during his campaign to start dismantling on his first day in the Oval Office. The 62-year-old lawmaker, who represents a wealthy suburban Atlanta district, has played a leading role in the Republican opposition to the law and has helped draft several comprehensive bills to replace it. The GOP-led House has voted five dozen times to eliminate all or part of the ACA but has never had a chance of accomplishing its goal as long as President Obama has been in the White House.

CNN Poll: 53% Say They Think Donald Trump Will Do a Very or Fairly Good Job as President
MAJORITY OF AMERICANS THING TRUMP WILL DO A VERY/FAIRLY GOOD JOB AS PRESIDENT …
According to the most recent CNN poll, even before president-elect Donald Trump as been sworn into office, 53% of Americans say that they think Trump will do a very or fairly good job as president, while 40% say he will not. Considering Donald Trump won the presidency in a landslide in the electoral college, but lost the national vote, 48% to 46.6%, this would mean that 5% of those who did not vote for Trump think he will do a good job as president. At least they are willing to give him a chance, unlike the liberal MSM and pouting liberals who still cannot cope with the fact they lost. Many on the Left cannot seem to be able to take Tom Hanks pearls of wisdom and hope. Take a look at the CNN poll below and see in comparison the blind faith that Americans gave Barack Obama when he came into office. Hey America, how did that “hopey-changey” stuff work out for you? Hmm … so well that Donald Trump president was born.
Two weeks after Election Day, most Americans say President-elect Donald Trump will ultimately do a good job as president, though fewer approve of the way he’s handled the transition so far, according to a new CNN/ORC Poll.
A narrow majority (53%), say they think Trump will do a very or fairly good job as president, and 40% say they have a lot of confidence in Trump to deal with the economy, a share that outpaces the percentage who had that much confidence in Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton or Ronald Reagan ahead of their first inaugurations.
The fact of the matter is that many on the Left and the MSM cannot have a successful presidency other wise it means their doom, even though it benefits the United States and its citizens. A better US economy, safer from terrorism, energy independence, creation of real paying jobs, reduction in regulations, combating the flood of illegal immigration, school choice and employment empowerment zones for minorities … these are all great things that would benefit America, yet destroy the Democrat party for a lifetime.
