Jim Mattis the unflappable: From Russia to Iran to Turkey, all is well

The world may be fraught with tension and turmoil, but in the world of Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, there's nothing to see here.

There was bipartisan blowback after the Helsinki summit between President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, where Mattis was not invited, but Mattis said that’s not affected him.

“I have talked immediately after the Helsinki summit, both the chief of staff and the national security adviser called me, I wouldn’t say immediately but as soon as they got free,” Mattis told reporters Friday as he stood on the River entrance steps waiting for the foreign minister of Oman to arrive.

“There have been no policy changes that have come out of it.”

Really?
