5.) Mattis Rumours?
Woodward’s book claims that James Mattis would sleep in his clothes due to fears that North Korea would strike in the US. This point alone is just plain stupid, in all likelihood someone in the White House made this comment as a joke and it went over this so-called journalist’s head. What is interesting about this comment though is that it shows that concerns over Kim Joung Un and the Hermit Kingdom were very real in the White House.
