'Political price to pay': Trump orbit expected to ramp up Ernst criticisms while she withholds Hegseth support

[shockedcanadian]

This has to be the playbook for Trump his second term. He needs to keep his Super Pac open for the purposes of donating to the GOP in the Mid Terms and 2028 even as he won't directly benefit. Any politicians who are purposely trying to block his agenda and nominees must be challenged in Primaries with well funded, competent people.

The world is in a very dangerous place. Trump needs the team that he wants in place for his administration.

President-elect Donald Trump’s allies are expected to ramp up criticisms against Republican Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst as she stalls on offering support to Trump’s secretary of defense pick, Pete Hegseth.

"It's really this simple: If you oppose President Trump's nominees, you oppose the Trump agenda and there will be a political price to pay for that. We are well aware that there are certain establishment Senators trying to tank the President's nominees to make him look weak and damage him politically, and we're just not going to allow that to happen," a top Trump ally told Fox News Digital.

Trump nominated Hegseth, a former National Guard officer, as secretary of defense last month, saying "with Pete at the helm, America's enemies are on notice — Our Military will be Great Again, and America will Never Back Down." Hegseth was a host on "Fox & Friends Weekend" before Trump's nomination.

Usually we refer to that kinda behavior as bullying. Adults don't engage in it.

At least they didn't.

It isnt bullying to remind voters of her choice,.the bullying is coming from the Establishment politiicans who are tryng to usurp the voting of 75M people. You can't have an entire administration forced to.bend the knee because the Establishment demand that.only career swamp creatures who will spend unheard of amounts of debf to be nominated,, especially when he ran.on change. Now if he nominates the local fast food cashjer to head of your DOD, ok. Everyone knows that this is not their reasoining and it is important for their constituents be made aware of how their local rep is voting.
