Trump picks Fox News host and Army National Guard veteran Pete Hegseth for defense secretary

[Delldude]

We know that from the way Trump ran his business and his first Administration.

IIRC, He was taken to court by the dem clowns over that and found not to be violating the law.

[Rawley]

Good to see you getting to know your new Sec. of Defense.

 

[Delldude]

Trigger much, dude?

 

[justoffal]

Everyone is holding their breath as to who the "Press Secretary" will be.

It may be time for that position to be given to a man. Females on both sides have had it for a long time.

 

[scruffy]

Stupid leftard asswipes like cross dressing clothing thieves, but they hate men who cheat on their wives.

Democrats are full of shit. Big time hypocrites.

Oh, he has command experience. You remember those pictures of detainees at Gitmo being subject to abuse? He was a platoon leader, probably the 84th Troop Command but I need to do more research. He was an infantry platoon leader in Iraq where he did see action. He became a captain in 2012 and went to Afghanistan where he was a senior counter insurgency trainer. How did that turn out? NOT SO GOOD.

He has no senior military or national security experience. I really don't know if he could qualify for an even midlevel security clearance, but apparently, Trump is going to hand those things out without an FBI review. Quite frightening.

The man is a disgusting, racist, pig. He is 96.4% Scandanavian, who even brags about something like that? While married and working at Fox he had an affair with his producer and they had a baby. Had he done that in the military he would have been court-martialed and spent some time in the brig. At FOX, well it is SOP.

I mean I knew, and I warned you all, this administration is going to be a total shit show. I just didn't think it would happen this fast.

He's worked in the gvt for 20 years

That’s a huge stretch.

Looks like Don has picked more Israel firsters than even Genocide Joe.

 

[gipper]

Make zIsrael Great Again…

 

[Rawley]

That’s a huge stretch.

No stretch, fact.

 

[jc456]

Who knows? A few republican senator's are saying WHO and questioning this decision.

who cares

 

[Marener]

No stretch, fact.

Being in the National Guard for 20 years is not the same as working in the government for 20 years.

 

[Rawley]

Being in the National Guard for 20 years is not the same as working in the government for 20 years.

LOL According to your standards, my mailman is qualified

 

[TimFitz]

says who?

Hilarious shit being spewed today.

Says just about anyone who understands leadership.

These are the hallmarks of effective and competent management teams. Governments and corporations overseen by strong leaders who have the self awareness and courage to appoint a strong team and work with tem succeed.

Ones who trade in office politics, chaos, corruption, self dealing and incompetence don’t.

I realize that your ilk are loudly cheering for yes men, chaos and ideological fringe tabloid people.

But as Trump’s bankruptcies, and his chaotic mismanaged first regime proved, this is not a path to anything other than more Trump BS, with few, if any, real results to show for it.

 

[TimFitz]

Trump is going to succeed spectacularly

And it will drive you nuts

There is no sign of that.

He’s already playing for the right wing media, and little else.

 

[ZestolPastilevsky]

What would your life be without oil?

I’ll tell you

It would really suck

Yeah, but I'm not willing to launch a war of aggression against some random country and kill millions for it. Especially when we have it here, or when we can just...you know...trade and buy it like normal people. I hope you don't think robbing a store is a viable alternative to just buying what you need, or getting it yourself.

 

[Marener]

Where did I elucidate a standard?

The people running the military today are not good for our nation and its defense... they couldn't win a war against a 12th century Afghan Army... they couldn't win in Iraq... they are allowing China to surpass us militarily... they are **** ups...
Hegseth will be a huge improvement to what we are stuck with now....
