Secretary of Defense James Mattis dispelled reports Tuesday that he was apprehensive about working with President Trump’s incoming National Security Advisor John Bolton.

"I'll tell you right up front, it's going to be a partnership, we are going to go forward," Mattis told reporters during a news conference at the Pentagon.

When asked about his differing world views with Bolton, Mattis responded, "I hope that there's some different world views. That's the normal thing you want unless you want group think."

Good Cop, Bad Cop.

These 2 ought to get along just fine.
My 'Viking Hunter' High Adventure Alternate History Series is FREE, ALL 3 volumes, at most ebook retailers including Ibooks, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and more.

In Vol 2 the weapons come out in a winner take all war on two fronts.

Vol 3 opens with the rigged murder trial of the villain in a Viking Court under Viking law to set the stage for the hero's own murder trial.

Who will or won't get along can be surprising. I'm sure they've both worked with people of differing opinions.

Yeah - we know how they love differing opinions in this administration.  So many of them are now available for comment.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Except those that haven't wrapped up their book deals, of course.

Except that Trump has brought aboard Bolton, knowing his views, while still keeping Mattis.  And Mattis is probably the safest guy in the entire cabinet.
