Secretary of Defense Will Likely Fall to a Military Man

At the moment, there are several contenders hoping to land the spot of Secretary of Defense. In keeping with his guns blazing campaign promises, two of the top contenders are former generals James Mattis (pictured), and Jack Keane. Keane was an informal military advisor to Hillary Clinton. He also worked under George W. (ahem, the Surge) and currently works for the company that makes the Humvee. Mattis meanwhile, was once described by Time magazine as a “Warrior Poet” and was once quoted saying that “it’s a lot of fun to fight,” adding, “it’s a hell of a hoot.” So neither is great, but you probably don’t want to appoint the guy who thinks shooting people is good fun.
