#PeteHegseth initial appointment as #DefSec underscores #DonaldTrump DISDAIN & DISRESPECT for the men & women of the U.S. Military and the national security of the United States.
In 2020 when #Trump called fallen soldiers “suckers and losers”, he meant it!
Yikes, I don't know that I would share this article. Even though the guy is correctly calling out Hegseth's missteps, he is still praising Hegseth and Trump.
I don’t understand why people didn’t remember that this happened ALL THE TIME in the first term. He’s The Master Distractor. Just makes me wonder what’s really happening. Maybe we’ll find out in the next six months while our lives are actually at stake.
Politico is doing the White House business here: “clean up on aisle 3”. — faking responsibility through a “responsible” news org site to soften the fallout of Hegseth’s beheading (or pardon). Disgusting read frankly.
... and yet he still paints Hegseth like a hero and the Biden administration as ineffective. Could hardly get through the article. I stopped when he started the same party line about Biden.
The level of incompetence in the Trump administration across the board is astounding.
A delusional lunatic wrote this.🙄 Good Lord. Trump wouldn’t know leadership, shrewdness, or honor if they smacked him in the face. Hegseth apparently served with honor in the past, but jettisoned any sense of that to be an extraordinary liar and toadie. What an embarrassment all around.
“President Donald Trump has a strong record of holding his top officials to account.” Bwahahhaaa (breathes) hahahahaaaaaa. Oh man - thanks for the comedy, Politico
I literally can’t tell who’s more vile, Hegseth or Ullyot. I mean it. It’s a complete toss up. There no daylight between them in terms of how utterly awful they both are.
Pete Hegseth is either the dumbest man in the room or the most dangerous. Tossing classified intel like spare change, reckless enough to burn the house down and arrogant enough to think he won’t get caught.
Boasting about bringing in conservative media to the Pentagon in a oped written for Politico. I'm sure his favored outlets all declined to publish this.
What everyone misses is that Trump was never hiring for competency, he was casting a TV show. He chooses photogenic people who look good on TV and sets them against each other, looking for the drama.
“Well…I really didn’t know him that well…I don’t watch a lot of weekend news. Maybe Eric or JD had some good things to say about him…I don’t know, you’ll have to talk to them.”
Yes, true, but I felt revulsion and needed to stop reading that about 2/3 through. Partisan hack writing dreck filled with his his unvarnished (wrong) opinions. My guess is he maybe wants back in and potentially in Hegseth's role.
With this cretin in charge, it’s probably better that Ukraine seek help from other countries who aren’t run by the most corrupt and incompetent group of morons ever. Dude also has no honor and has no clue how the military really works
I get (not trhat I agree with) Trump putting incompetent Secretaries in departments he hates like Education. But he supposedly believes in a strong defense so putting someone totally unqualified there shows he really doesn't care.
This is what happens when you get rid of DEI. Under qualified dumb white dudes get positions cuz they're 'friends' with the other under qualified dumb white dude.
