    'He earned his spurs from a doctor': Gen James Mattis mocks Trump

    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...y_to_clipboard

    “I earned my spurs on the battlefield; Donald Trump earned his spurs in a letter from a doctor,” Mattis said.

    In another zap he said: “A year according to White House time is about 9,000 hours of executive time, or 1,800 holes of golf.”

    There is no question that when the folks get fired they are really unhappy about it.

    Hey Guys, The remarks were at a ROAST. It was supposed to be a dig in the spurs speech.

    That's good to know. I have never thought of Mattis being that callous.
