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 think Trump has learned his lessons about who can be trusted. He has spent the last 4 years separating the wheat from the chaff.

DC, the government, and the military are about to be purged.

I thought Chris was a good guy.
Then, there is this clip of Chris lauding Mike Pence
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-jxqwTWkuw

Remarks from Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller regarding Mike Pence and their collaboration on “some of the most complex military operations this country has ever conducted”.

Now, I do not know what to believe!

This is a quintessential Trump pick. He’s a fox news host like Trump was just a tv personality. He’s not from the inside or from within government which has them all flustered. They haven’t had a chance to get a guy on the inside of his inner circle yet. They are frantically trying to figure out how to infiltrate and influence.
