The former secretary of defense has remained tight-lipped about his views of the Trump administration, saying he wouldn't speak out from "the cheap seats."
Former Secretary of Defense James Mattis ― who has refrained from discussing his differences with President Donald Trump following his resignation last year ― said on Tuesday that he would speak out “when the time’s right.”
In his December resignation letter, Mattis appeared to challenge Trump’s military judgment, urging him to take authoritarianism in China and Russia seriously. Though nearly a year has passed since he left the Trump administration, Mattis remains tight-lipped about his opinions on Trump’s tenure, telling Haass it wasn’t yet appropriate for him to offer any critiques.
