Not qualified? Look at his predecessor…went to the ICU for a few days and didn’t tell anyone!

Great and all. However, I disagree with the assertion of character above all. Bottom line - if you post the job description next to his resume, he does not meet even the minimum qualifications. He demonstrated during the hearings that he less understanding of global security organizations or geopolitics than a well informed average citizen. This is no different than any other autocracy installing a crony. I'd commend her if she called that out. She gets ZERO kudos for this statement

Don't hold your breath. She sucks. ME deserves so much better


Collins voted no in the test vote.

She’ll vote for him when it counts. She’s sure he’s learned his lesson.

That does not make him unqualified. It's a serious issue and was totally wrong - but do you know what words mean?

Hegseth is an affirmative action hire in the original practice of it. WASPy white athletic party guy who assaults and harasses women gets jobs he’s not qualified for because of his identity as a white, Christian, athletic, big drinking, male who actively demeans women to prove his manliness and then jokes with all the other men in the old boys club.

How long until he's stinking drunk on the job or in AirForce One?

I don't disagree. But he was qualified for the job on experience, skills and merit. Hegseth is not.

I'm the PP and I agree 100%.

It makes me so sad, as a woman, that not a single make Republican will take a stand against him.

They are fathers and brothers. Do they really believe he treats women with respect, when his own mother said he did not?

They just don’t care.

(And they don’t care if the department charged with protecting all of us is well run. 😲)

You should not have to BE a woman to care about that.

Or SACLANT.

Oh how I wish someone would have asked him whether DEFCON 1 or 5 was the bad one!!! People notoriously get it wrong and I bet he wouldn’t have known.
