Of course dcum doesn’t like him, he works for a living.

I will take a grunt over 10,000 4 star generals any day of the week.

He went to Princeton and Harvard. A real man of the people.

I graduated from p’ton and Stanford and I’m a loyal trumper. What position can I get?

He returned his degrees. Start with that. Did you send yours back?

Oh please. Trump wouldn't give a guy like him a second look without those "returned" degrees because, though he pretends he's not, he's obsessed with surrounding himself with prestige as a way of validating himself because he's been shunned by the upper crust New York social scene and never been taken seriously by the real titans of industry.

Generals are perfumed princes. They are basically politicians. That’s it .

It's the Secretary of defense. If it's always a general or other top rank in that position, maybe it's important to have a skilled politician that also achieved a top rank in that role.

Well, I am a vet who would rather be led by the guy with a CIB. Period.

Literally, you are likely more qualified than this guy.

What’s your military experience?

DP. Just out of curiosity, I looked up some former Sec. Defs. Here are the ones who were appointed by Democratic presidents:

Ashton B. Carter
Barack Obama Administration: ZERO military experience

Chuck Hagel
Barack Obama Administration: fought in Vietnam as enlisted, left as Sergeant (which I believe is lower than Major?)

Leon E. Panetta
Barack Obama Administration: ZERO military experience, unless you count two years as a young Army intel officer

Robert M. Gates
George W. Bush / Barack Obama Administration: left Air Force as 2nd Lieutenant (lower than Major, correct?)

William S. Cohen
William Clinton Administration: ZERO military experience

Leslie Aspin
William Clinton Administration: ZERO military experience

The point isn't to diminish the wealth of *other* experience all of these men had, but simply to point out that having military experience is NOT a criterion for the job.

You are correct. So besides some military experience, what other major qualifications does Pete have that would make him qualified to be SecDef?

He's far more than a grunt, but never made the "political" transition to rise above the rank of major. That said, he isn't a babe in the woods when it comes to civilian politics, having covered that in his stint at FOX. Yes, that's one of the reasons Trump nominated him, but it's not the only one. It seems like Trump is tired of the career politicians with token military service serving as SECDEF. He wants someone who will execute his agenda for the DoD - not someone who has their own agenda and is looking to sit on corporate boards for big $$$ after a few years.

Someone to "execute" with no executive experience?

Also, not enough "South Americans" are enlisting.

Yeah right. He continues to list it on his wiki page and resume.

It's just so painfully obvious. He has no executive experience. He's a Fox News weekend host. This isn't the job to get that executive experience. He has no chance of being effective.

Liaison to the Dcum Uniform Military Battalion, or D.U.M.B.

D.U.M.B is comprised of highly trained wine moms, whining about actual Soldiers who deployed and served their country (Vance, Pete) and pretending they can identify their @ss from a hole in the ground.

You’ll do great! Welcome aboard!

You sound like a bitter guy who received one too many Article 15s and holds a grudge.

Combat veteran (army) wine mom here. Trump voter. Current DoD civilian. It is an —- interesting —- choice. Spouse is at DHS, I think he got the shorter straw.

Please tell me how your life is so bad. Please, you special delicate little snowflake, tell me what's so wrong in your life? Was it Biden's fault your mommy didn't love you? Is it Kamala's fault your husband left you? That you're in massive credit card debt to pay for your fancy car? What a loser.
