I think it will be good to have someone shake up the status quo. Our adversaries are interested in training their soldiers to kill us. Sadly, the US military leadership is invested in things like equity, white fragility, and PR ads celebrating having two moms. I think it’s better they focus on lethality.
Hegseth has human failings. Do you know someone that doesn’t? As for qualifications, if the SecDef can go awol for 5 days and not lose his job over it, I’m willing to grant some leeway for his replacement learning on the job a bit. Hopefully he comes up to speed quickly so we can get the Greenland invasion underway. Saber rattling is boring.
Take a few deep breaths. I imagine it’s stressful being on the fringe of political thinking these days but you chose it.
