President-elect Trump’s support for his choice of defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, is said to be wobbling, with Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida under consideration for the role.

Way smarter, way more experienced manipulating the law and way more dangerous to all of us. Will have zero issue unleashing trips within our border. Sent Fl LEOs to Tx (on Fl dime) to work Tx/Mex border. Paid for planes to send immigrants to NE.
He was toast on national stage. Big 2nd chance.
He has manipulated the law in Florida for political gain. He is much smarter than T and therefore much more dangerous. He was done on national stage and this invigorates him. He is now a solider and will be ok unleashing troops within the border and deal with legality later.
I’ll be called out but DeSantis is much more a practical solution. It’s Trump that’s making the choice, of course you can’t expect him to pick a democrat right? That being said, an appointee that poses less threat to America democracy should be acceptable. DeSantis is not a MAGA but an opportunist.
You won’t like most of his policies but one thing we can be sure is that when Trump orders him to shoot at protesters or political rivals, he won’t obey. That’s the most we can expect from his pick. Don’t even think that he’ll pick Schumer or Biden as the rold
The real winner in Pete Hesgeth's problematic appointment to head the department of defense? Florida governor Ron DeSantis...

All the time and energy spent by Texas pols kowtowing to Trump hasn’t given them much in return. United States of Florida cabinet. Wait until he gets his way on gas prices via higher Mid east production increases. Low energy prices mean high unemployment in Midland.
This is the lazy Trump brain at work. First pick someone he sees on Fox a lot, when that doesn't work pick someone he sees hanging around Mar-a-Lago. When Tulsi gets the boot expect the mayor of Miami to be up next.
During trump's first term he said he would surround himself around the best people. That was good because what's best for America is what matters. Now it seems he doesn't care at all about what's best for America. He's digging from the bottom of the barrel for ppl who will help him tear down America
Here come the communists lies to take out Trumps people. NBC just ran and complete lying propaganda hit piece on Hegseth. Sue the living crap out of NBC for deformation. Next come the Democrat women operatives screaming he raped me 1 billion years ago on Mars in a tomato field
When you put your #DeSantis in, your #Hegseth out
In, out, in, out, you shake it all about
You do the hokey cokey and you turn around
That's what it's all about
When you put your #Trump-job in, your #nut-job out
In, out, in, out, you shake it all about....
DeSantis will be a blow to DEI and LGBTQ+.
I hope they don't go off half cocked and straight up throw out Trans. soldiers that have served the country honorably.
He is, obviously, a better choice...not great but better.
He was a Navy Lawyer for a short period.
I read more and more posts that second picks from Trump are “okay” when you compare with the worst 🤦♀️ mmmhh yes … it’s seems to me that Trump tactical moves are working .. right?
I expect the people of Florida would benefit from Ron’s nomination. The rest of us would get the bonus of getting to know the “real” Ron DeSantis in a Senate confirmation hearing. Allowing Congress to deprive us of this vital process is totally unacceptable.
Just stopping in to remind everyone that the @nytimes.com is largely responsible for the outcomes of this election. Instead of focusing on the psycho, the focused on Joe Biden’s stutter.
Habberman and the rest of these assholes don’t get to clutch their pearls anymore.
Sex offender Trump is surrounding himself with other perverts. These slime balls want to control female reproductive rights? AND voters willingly chose this?

Trump won. He gets to choose.
I’d much rather our troops and the defense of our country rest in the hands of DeSantis than Hegseth.
