@Suzierizzo1 Yes! Definitely! My oldest son, Patrick Reed, already shook his hand years ago when he was campaigning at Youngstown State University, and he has the photograph to prove it.
@harryjsisson@AntiToxicPeople I guess the White House is not troubled by the optics. Itโs very obvious that there is something wrong but no one wants to admit it for fear of pissing Trump off. The Sycophants need to get a backbone and say something.
BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Donald Trump's Fed Chair Andrew Warsh just admitted that Donald Trump's Iran war has created serious supply chain shocks that are making inflation worse. Wow.
@OccupyDemocrats He NEVER shouldโve been in the position to begin with. But neither should his convicted criminal leader. But you get what you pay for. Or should I say what you voted for in this case. My conscience is clear; I didnโt vote for the convicted criminal
BREAKING: MUTINY! Republican senators brutally turn on Pete Hegseth as his illegal Iran War collapses into humiliating failure.
Rats always flee a sinking shipโฆ
โI donโt have any confidence in him anymore. I think heโs all over the place โ heโs accelerating the retirement or forcing out some of the most distinguished leaders in the DOD that we have,โ said Senator Thom Tillis, who has not been shy about criticizing the administration due to his looming retirement.
Unfortunately for Donald Trump, Tillisโ vote will be crucial if Trump wants to ram through a budget resolution before the August recess. The White House is absurdly requesting an additional $73 billion for Pentagon and intelligence spending, the lionโs share of which will be wasted on the Iran War.
Countless Americans are struggling to even afford groceries, but the President wants to burn through our taxes to wage a war he canโt win on behalf of Israelโs national interests. And standing at the front of this historic debacle is Hegseth, a man who would be out of his depths in two inches of water.
โI think heโs got a massive insecurity complex, he has a lack of experience in large organizations, he micromanages too much. Heโs lost my confidence,โ Tillis said of Hegseth.
But Tillis isnโt the only Republican who feels this way. He revealed that there are โother peopleโ who are just โone decision or anotherโ away from speaking out against Hegsethโs disastrous tenure. Given how quickly this alcoholic, washed up Fox News host makes mistakes, we will inevitably reach the tipping point where the political cost of speaking out (and thus incurring the ire of the MAGA base) is more palatable than the cost of silence.
The Hill spoke to an anonymous Republican senator who is โclose to Defense policymakersโ and they revealed just how dire the confidence crisis has become for Hegseth.
โI have heard out of the Pentagon that thereโs a loss of confidence โ within the Pentagon. And of course then everyone here on the Hill hears those same concerns,โ the lawmaker said.
In addition to the botched Iran War, Hegseth has instituted a culture of ignorance and fear at the Pentagon, derailing the promotions of highly qualified female service members and forcing respected, experienced leaders into early retirement.
โEverybody knows about some of the Game of Thrones stuff going on with some of the other service secretaries and Hegseth,โ said Tillis. โIt seems like he wants to run the whole place.โ
โWhen youโre a leader, you better damn sure have people smarter than you in the room,โ he added. โYouโre supposed to be air traffic control for all these brilliant people and heโs undermining the DODโs success by undermining these brilliant people who spent their career in uniform.โ
The problem is that with Hegseth, no matter what room he steps into, every single person in it is smarter than him. But rather than embrace his own profound intellectual limitations, he lashes out, childishly punishing people for knowing more than him. His perfect version of the Pentagon is a building full of 80 IQ men (because he only wants men around him) who do nothing but flatter his ego and praise his idiotic decisions.
Another Republican senator told The Hill that there are โrumblingsโ about the stunning failure to anticipate Iranโs closure of the Strait of Hormuz โ which virtually every geopolitical analyst predicted.
โI think thereโs a sense itโs taken longer than what we thought and that maybe our strategy didnโt factor in the Strait of Hormuz or [Iranโs] ability to be willing to hit their neighbors. I think there was some miscalculations maybe,โ the senator said.
What would happen to you and your job if you performed as poorly as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth?
Please โค๏ธ and share to demand that Hegseth be fired immediately!
ACCORDING TO MAGA THIS IS AN EXTREMELY MASCULINE MAN ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
