Fox News: General Mattis says relationship with Trump 'was not tense'

General Mattis says relationship with Trump 'was not tense'

Former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said on "Fox & Friends" Tuesday that his relationship with President Trump “was not tense,” pushing back on that speculation from Host Steve Doocy.

“The president is a forthright man and so am I," General Mattis said.

“I would meet with him weekly. There was nothing going on that I wasn’t open with him about. That’s the way I deal with my boss anywhere I have ever been,” he said.

While Mattis, a career Marine who retired as a four-star general in 2013, promoted his new book "Call Sign Chaos" (co-authored with Bing West), about learning to lead, he said that the book does not reference working in the Trump administration.
