That was the name his troops (I think) gave him. He is far from being mad anything!

He reads and understands history and is generally thoughtful.

I believe he is the only cabinet member who is not actively working to undermine or destroy his department.

We should have many more of his caliber!

The irony that the only sane voice in the White House is a general with the nickname "Mad Dog" is somewhat staggering.

The one thing that is absolutely certain, we will all know the nuclear shit is about to hit the global fan if he ever resigns suddenly.

or even worse, forces Hair Twitler to fire him.

He's the only person there that will come out of this without the stench of Trump on him, so long as we are not all killed in a nuclear firestorm.
