Today's big criticism of President Elect Trump in the mainstream media is that he is selecting too many generals to be in his cabinet. What a calamity. Trump has selected retired general Mattis as the defense secretary and another retired general as head of Homeland Security. Top that off with General Flynn as National Security Advisor and there are three retired generals with top positions. So? Mattis is someone with unquestioned talent regarding the military. He is known as someone who gets things done and does not let bureaucracy stand in the way. In other words, he is just the sort of person who could reshape the Pentagon in a very positive way. Flynn is former head of the Defense Intelligence Agency under Obama. He has years of experience with national security matters. His military experience is a positive not a negative for his position. Similarly, having retired general Kelly as head at Homeland Security is great. Kelly has years of experience dealing with many of the major problems handled by DHS.
Sometimes, it just gets ridiculous to watch the media and the critics try to find fault with anything that Trump does.
