Try and keep some control. I use to think Kelly Mc Masters and Mattis thought along the lines until I heard one of the pundits (I forget who.) Explain that in the VERY early days of the Admin it was agreed that one of them would stay in the country close to trump at all times.

I am torn after hearing that pundit. Those 3 must have saw something that scared them enough to keep to that deal.
