Prediction, Hegseth doesn't make it to the confirmation process.....if there is one.

[DonGlock26]

From Murkowski.......

I commend Pete Hegseth’s service to our nation, including leading troops in combat and advocating for our veterans. However, these accomplishments do not alleviate my significant concerns regarding his nomination. Managing the Department of Defense requires vast experience and expertise as the department is one of the most complex and powerful organizations in the world, and Mr. Hegseth’s prior roles in his career do not demonstrate to me that he is prepared for such immense responsibility. His leadership of two veteran organizations was marked with accusations of financial mismanagement and problems with the workplace culture he fostered.

The problem with Democrat and Rinos' smears is that no one believes them anymore. We want people like McConnell and Murkowski removed from office. They are the problem with DC.

Are we invading North Africa again?

I'm pretty sure we are already there.

The point is that FDR wisly picked the best man for the job regardless of experience.
Admiral Nimitz was promoted over many higher ranking officers as well.

She is a lawyer. He is a combat veteran.

This isnt about eating donuts.

Taken together, the statements by these three Repub senators are a damning indictment of trump, their fellow Repubs in the Senate, AND THE VOTERS WHO PUT DOTARD IN A POSITION TO WEAKEN THE COUNTRY.

What smear?

 

[berg80]

He is a combat veteran.

There are thousands of combat vets. That status doesn't make a person qualified to run the DoD.

 

[DonGlock26]

What smear?

Did you read Murkowski's statement?

More liberal gnashing of teeth.

You pick an advisor you trust. In this case a veteran with combat experience. Spec Ops experience. He gets advised by Top Generals of the Jount Chiefs.

So. The kbowledge and experience is there.

It sure as hell helps.

What makes your opinion important?? Were you a member of the boy scouts??

Why thank you. Whenever you gas up at the pumps, think of MAGA.

Dotard isn't responsible for record oil production in the US under Biden exceeding the level under trump.

More to the point, I'd rather pay more at the pump than see my country taken over by an authoritarian ruler.

Yep, what was the smear?

Biden did everything he could to cut it. Oil companies and the courts walked all over him.
