Greg Kelly Calls for Hegseth to Drop Out, Backs DeSantis
NEWSMAX ^ | December 5, 2024 | By Sandy Fitzgerald

Posted on 12/06/2024 9:53:46 AM PST by KeyLargo

Greg Kelly Calls for Hegseth to Drop Out, Backs DeSantis By Sandy Fitzgerald Pete Hegseth, defense secretary nominee, has "serious baggage" and is not the right pick, while Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is the "perfect fit" that President-elect Donald Trump needs, Newsmax's Greg Kelly said.

"No one's perfect, but it's a perfect fit," Kelly said Wednesday on his program, "Greg Kelly Reports," about Florida's Republican governor. "Administrating the Pentagon, the biggest federal bureaucracy, and making it lethal again and not woke and all those things. I think it's a perfect fit."

Kelly said he did not support DeSantis' run for the presidency this year, "but he's been a very good governor of Florida." "When you're the governor of Florida, you're responsible for a lot of things," said Kelly. "That is the kind of resume that really qualifies you to run the Pentagon. ... I think DeSantis, if the opportunity becomes available, and I think it's going to very soon, he should take it because he's not good at running for president."

I watch Newsmax and like Greg Kelly's program, but now with him making this apparently a personal complaint about Pete Hegseth, it concerns me what Kelly is doing with his biased reporting.

Video at link.

From what I have learned is that both veterans worked at FOX and Kelly has issues with Pete Hegseth.

But, what is it that Kelly seems to have a personal beef with Hegseth?

However it is obvious that Kelly supports DeSantis as Defense Secretary.

Kelly says that he has received calls from MAGA supporters saying WTF is he doing?

Probably not the same link, but this story was posted the other day and the general consensus was To Hades with Greg Kelly. Who does he think he is? We don’t care what he thinks.

F**k Greg Kelly. This "Lt. Col" flew over Iraq in Operation Southern Watch, enforcing the United Nations imposed No-Fly Zone, between the two Gulf Wars. DeSantis was a Navy JAG. Hegseth saw actual combat in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The Deep State is SALIVATING at the idea of DeSantis having access to the top-levels of the Trump Administration. Likewise, one has to start to wonder about Kelly...

No one cares Greg.

Compare Pete’s military bio to Greg’s

The choice here is a warrior like Pete or just another politician in a uniform

I’ve listened to O’rielly and Savage do the same thing. Play the devil’s advocate from time to time. Separate themselves from the rest and raise a few eyebrows. They’re worried about irrelevancy. Coulter was really bad.

The left has Mahre and Carville throw us a bone from time to time.

There have been a ton of posts in the past few days about “Greg Kelly” and what he says about SECDEF.

Who the hell is he and why does what he says matter about anything?

Smear a MAGA candidate. Then replace with DeSantis.

This reminds me of what happened a year ago.

Trump was the MAGA target in late Fall of '23. Now it's Hegseth.

Enough of this.

Sure, Greg. Start the collapse right out of the gate by folding. What the hell does he think the left will to to DeSantis?

Grow some cojones or join the dem party.

DeSantis is a good governor, but that is a far different animal. Leave him where he is.

I absolutely disagree with Greg Kelly on this issue. Sounds like a case of jealousy to me. You are better than this Greg. Restore my belief in you.

We keep reading the same story posted. I’m disappointed by Greg Kelly’s statement on this I like his show a lot. But he’s just wrong on this one and I see that he may have a personal beef with Hegseth.

North Mountain calls for Greg Kelly to sit down, shut his filthy sewer, quit being an Assistant DemocRAT, and let President Trump build his team.

I voted for Donald J Trump. I voted for J. D. Vance.

I didn’t vote for Greg Kelly.
