He got fucking dragged by Trumpworld after he resigned over Trump’s stance on Afghanistan (or was it the Kurds?), it was probably one of the most severe about-faces I’ve ever seen from conservatives about one man.

It was because we abandoned the Kurds. Mattis felt very strongly on the matter. He also went to bat for transgender service members.
