So 'Northman', how many billions or hundreds of millions are you worth? And when you were POTUS exactly what did you accomplish?
My memory escapes me on this at the moment.

Here's what 'Ol Walt was referring to: James Mathis Mentioned Donald Trump Has the Understanding of ‘a Fifth-or Sixth-Grader,’ Bob Woodward E-book Claims
By Theweeklyn - September 4, 20187 0
President Donald Trump was described as having the mind of a “fifth or sixth-grader” by Secretary of Protection Jim Mattis following a gathering about North Korea and U.S.’s involvement within the area, in keeping with a brand new guide.
Famed reporter Bob Woodward particulars why Mattis made such a comment in his guide Worry, excerpts launched by The Washington Submit on Tuesday confirmed.
Trump and Mattis had been at a Nationwide Safety Council assembly in January, throughout which Trump questioned why the US army had such a powerful presence on the Korean Peninsula. Mathis, in keeping with the guide, advised Trump that the hassle and cash spent within the area was supposed to “forestall World Warfare III.”
“Mattis was notably exasperated and alarmed, telling shut associates that the president acted like — and had the understanding of — ‘a fifth-or sixth-grader,’” Woodward quoted Mattis as stating.

The Pentagon didn’t instantly reply to Newsweek’s request for remark about Mattis’s claimed characterization of the president.
Woodward obtained the data and perception for the guide from unnamed White Home officers who had been granted anonymity.
Mattis, in contrast to a number of different high cupboard members, has largely prevented the president’s wrath and has till no longer been linked to an adverse report concerning the president.

Former secretary of state Rex Tillerson had reportedly made related statements following a gathering on the Pentagon a 12 months in the past. He referred to as the president a “moron” after army officers had defined how the U.S. and NATO had constructed up its army equipment following World Warfare II. Tillerson left his publish in March.

Woodward, who co-authored the famed All The President’s Males concerning the Watergate investigation, is simply the most recent writer and author to disclose damning opinions of the president by his internal circle and others.
And Worry figures to convey much more criticism and questions on Trump’s health for workplace. White Home Chief of Employees John Kelly is quoted as saying Trump is an “fool” and that his present publish is “the worst job I’ve ever had.”

Earlier this 12 months, Trump was topic to damning accusations in writer Michael Wolff’s guide, Fireplace and Fury. Wolff claimed Trump thought he would lose the 2016 election, Trump scoffed at studying extra concerning the U.S. Structure and that most of the president’s aides and allies had been shocked to be taught of how little he is aware of about insurance policies.
And former White Home adviser Omarosa Manigault Newman launched her personal tome, Unhinged, which included claims First Woman Melania Trump hoped to divorce her husband shortly and the way Manigault Newman believed Trump’s psychological state had deteriorated over the past 10 years. Now for the part that Walt and the other Ignorant Eight around here don't get. Take a look at the question Trump posed. Maybe I'll paraphrase for low IQ Leftists" Trump (Noting how we've spent TRILLIONs over the past 70 years on the Korean Peninsula and nothing has changed and it remains a tinder box) — "Why are we spending stupid amounts of money here?" Mattis - (astonished that the answer isn't obvious) "Mr. President, WWIII could break out any minute. The NORKS could over run the DMZ and/or level Seoul within an hour with their massive artillery. You understand that, don't you?" Trump - (exasperated) 'Why in the phouc are we still doing the same shytt here that never has worked? It hasn't worked in 70 years. We've had three rulers come and go. Did you ever think we're doing it wrong?" Mattis (stuck in antiquated Cold War thinking) - "Mr. President, If not for our masive prescence here, the Norks would be temped to re-invade" Trump - (Knowning that the NORKS once had the backing of not only the Soviet Union, but Mao's Communist China, has none of that today. Furthermore, the phucers are starving at home) "We don't need the military here. One move over the DMZ, and I'll have a Trident sub obliterate them." (Trump knowing it would never be necessary) Mattis (shytting his pants. "Did I just here that? OMG! Did I just hear that"?) "Um, Mr. President, things are a little more complicated than that. There is the threat of radiation over our allies in the South, possiblity of reprisal by not only the Norks but the Chinese. Millions of lives would hang in the balance." Trump (Yawn! No shytt. They know that too. Called Mutually Assured Destruction) - "Mathis, we've had the military here eating up our resourses for 70 years. Anybody ever think that a.) either crippling them economically to the point that they come crawling to us or b.) offering them chance at economic prosperity that the South is enjoying or c.) hit them with both and we can then get our troops and resources the hell outta here?" Mattis (being the military man hasn't a clue what the President is talking about) "Um, right, Mr. President. So I have two choices. I can believe Walt, and this report of a quote in Woodward's E-book that Mathis thinks Trump has a 5th Grade understanding of things. Right, a self made BILLIONAIRE who has worked in international real estate for 50 years has only a 5th Grade understanding....or I can look at how Trump works his foriegn policy, as well as his domestic policy and conclude that he sees alternatives to the Cold War style stand off that hasn't accomplished anything in 70 years and finally got Kim to table to talk. It finally got the remains of our soldiers home after 70 years. It has halted missile launches and nuclear testing on the peninsula. Walt and the Ignorant Eight will go with the 5th Grade explaination because they WANT to believe it. It suits their narrative. Any positive gains Trump gets are purely by accident, in their mind. It is no accident that Woodward (thru Mattis) and Amarosa and the other former insiders that are the darlings of the Left are all cashing in in the book market.

And Mattis has made how many millions?
Not the only benchmark, but hi-end business dealings seem to be a bit multi-dimensionsal. Trump never seemed to make any money, until after his fourth or fifth bankruptcy, when he came into huge sums of Russian Oligarch money.. First time in his life he was ever out of debt. If you don´t count when his daddy helped him out in the beginning. Mattis on the other hand has been in the US Marine Corps since 1969.. around the time when trumps dad got him his forth or fifth deferment.. for a bone spur in his heal. Keep selling yourself this story. Keep believing in Russian Collusion. Keep waiting on the Blue Wave and impeachment that will save your tortured mental state. Your therapy sessions will last long after Trump's second term ends in February, 2025.

We have very low unemployment, very high revenues to the government, etc, etc; yet, there are still thousands of politicians, pundits and know-it-alls who are succeeding in convincing a large portion of the voting public that all of this sucks. Sheesh. We've lost our collective minds.
It's truly amazing how these conservative economic policies, when implemented, are always coincidences with respect to an improved economy across the board. It's also amazing that, historically, 100% of the time that socialist and communist policies have been implemented, economies have tanked and people's lives have been destroyed. That is, apparently, also just coincidental.
Now tell me who has the mind of a fifth grader.

If it takes a fifth grade mentality to get us out of the hole we dug for ourselves over there then let's get on with it. One thing's for sure it hasn't worked for the past SEVENTY YEARS. To Hell with Bob Woodward. He is a jackass that's already brought one president down. He's just looking to get another notch on his belt.

The fact that Trump is retarded is what's going to prevent him from being hanged for his treason.
We don't execute retards in this country. We have laws against executing retarded people like Trump.

Besides, these retards think Mad dog is as stupid as they are, even if Mattis thought this he would never say it, he ain't stupid, he knows what it would mean for his career.

As has been said Woodward is way past his 'best by, date. He has been largely irrelevant since Watergate. It should be noted that Mattis was The CIC's 1st cabinet appointment, after many consultations and briefings with Gen. Mattis. I am about 1/2 the way through Gen. Mattis's biography now and seriously doubt that he would make any such statement to any reporter.
