Trump should tell him that if he gets the SAVE act past in the next week, he’ll replace Hegseth

And then tell Tillis, sorry I changed my vote he’s staying

Well, someone’s head should roll for this Iran frick up. I’d say Hegseth is where the buck stops

If Tillis doesn't like him it's probably a good thing.

This tells me Trump should absolutely keep Hegseth.

Well. Dan Driscoll is absolutely suspect now. Can’t say I know anything about him beyond this.

And don't play whataboutism about Mayor Booty running Biden's transportation department. Again..two things can be true.


Whataboutism….
I love how asshats like you throw that out when I didn’t see you complaining about Lloyd Vader as SecDef under Biden. That guy was an unfit loser who projected weakness to the troops. Thats even before he and Biden botched the withdrawal from Afghanistan. I guess you love losers.

Tell me you’re a pussy without saying it.

What qualifies him to manage an entire war? Strategy, logistics, supply...



You don't think the SoW does all these things by himself, do you?

We have specialists for these things. Hegseth's job is to put people into a position to succeed and determine the overall direction of the military, not to micromanage.

Dwight Eisenhower was made a general because of his logistics ability, not his wartime strategies. Even the 5 star general himself couldn't do it all.

The guy is in over his head but he makes some good points. Military policies were too woke. Uniform and fitness standards needed a revision. Dudes in dresses are mentally ill. I could go on. Sometimes you need an outlier fall guy to get the jobs done that you couldn’t get a seasoned Retired general or captain of industry to do for you. Those people would be worried about their legacy. Pete has no legacy to protect.

Pete doesn't want to see this, but his detractors seem to think it is good for the military along with trannies and furies.

Driscoll had few qualifications, but evidently a big Harvard dose of inflated ego.

Only a dbag doesn’t realize that his opinion at this point doesn’t matter for jack. I look forward to hearing him whine about any firm that picks him up gets govt blackballed.

Tillis is as “persona non grata” as it gets. Cornyn, and other rinos too.

“ Sometimes you need an outlier fall guy to get the jobs done that you couldn’t get a seasoned Retired general or captain of industry to do for you. Those people would be worried about their legacy. Pete has no legacy to protect.”(quote LN).

Hegseth will make the call to militarize and face down Communist Insurrection which directly affects National Security, and the Left/Dems know it. Biden threatened the Right with “F-15s in his ‘Hitler Speech”. It won’t be street muh protestors burning, pillaging and interfering with basic infrastructure mechanisms, unchallenged, like Trump’s last term. Hegseth will send in a loyal Marine force of truly patriotic Americans who don’t buy into the Color Revolution BS.

We are way past the petty and lawyerly mind games and the partisan Judicial ‘rulings’ fiascos. Fakes like Tillis can attempt to deflect and deny the “fundamental transformation” that is obvious to even the common folk on both sides of the Capitalist v Socialist divide but that changes nothing. A definitive struggle for formal power is inevitable. That is the historical norm.

Albeit ‘Affordability’ concerns are real. Thanks to Biden/Dems Open Border and subsidies to all comers policies.

This ain’t rocket science but it is a hard pill to swallow given the risky societal dynamic. It’ll take Jesus to clean up this mess.
