"I am honored to announce that I have nominated Pete Hegseth to serve in my Cabinet as The Secretary of Defense," Trump said in a post to Truth Social. "Pete has spent his entire life as a Warrior for the Troops, and for the Country. Pete is tough, smart and a true believer in America First. With Pete at the helm, America's enemies are on notice - Our Military will be Great Again, and America will Never Back Down."

Another example of Trump's pick.

The number one criteria? Loyalty. No 2? You have to be at least 6 ft tall.

Before anyone starts laughing, start thinking about the dipshits, Trump had in that spot before, who turned out to be disloyal. Writing books, publicly denouncing him etc.

Mark Espar

Christopher Miller

Remember this jerk? He refused to send National Guard to the Capitol on Jan 6th.

Trump talks about the enemy from within the Military will end on Election Day.

The other thing, Trump puts people in positions, that allow them to sink or swim. Pete has his work cut out for him, but who knows, he will grow up real fast.

Pete has written 6 books on the subject.

I bought his book, The War on Warriors, last night on Audible and spent hours listening to it.

He has a very clear vision of what has to be done...and he is a fighter. Pete is going to clear out the Woke Marxist traitors in the Pentagon and military.

I wonder if the President is going to put out a call to senior officers who left the military out of disgust with current leadership. Might want to put out a call to junior officers and NCOs as well.

Trump's plan to rescue the country and the Constitution is beginning to become clear. The Lefties in DC and all around the country were right to fear a Trump victory. He and his team are going to devastate the efforts of those who have been destroying it.

So glad President Trump didn’t pick Mike Rogers of Alabama. Thank you Mr. President. Pete will be great!

Anytime a democrat or democrats and the democrats’ lamestream media oppose a nomination by President Trump or attempt to discredit President Trump’s nominee, all Americans will know the proper choice was made.

The necessary Pentagon putsch is on. Leftist concepts of what they regard as “Equity” will be crushed and removed. The neo racist anti American efforts at renaming bases and removing monuments is at an end. Fort Brag and the Moses Ezekiel Reconciliation Monument honoring Confederate fallen will return to Arlington. The left will taste the bitter fruit of demoralization. Parents of southern boys will once again offer their sons to serve in the military. PRIDE RESTORED.

I'm not so sure Trump is thinking outside the box with this appointment.

We live in a world where spin and propaganda and the narrative reigns supreme.

Why not pick someone who is an expert in storytelling? We've listened to spin, propaganda, and lies for years. Let's just hope he gets the right message out and not more of the same.

Did I mention that his bio makes him look pretty darn smart?
