He’s a major. This is a clownish pick who is impossible to spin. Zero credibility. |
No, they just open the marriage. |
Sure...he's entirely qualified to run the biggest agency overseeing almost 3 million people and over $800 billion budget. Based on, what exactly?
Yeah, ok. |

Yes. It's comical and extremely insulting. |
A Fox News host? The GOP is a joke. This is nuts. |
Not to mention, the agency most responsible for our national security. |
I guess when you have a bunch of people who have no idea what they are doing, the "deep state" can just ignore them and do their thing. |
Oh, come on. Just think what a morale booster this must be for the 70,000 O4s currently serving. "Yes, you're qualified to be SECDEF! And you're qualified to be SECDEF! And you're qualified to be SECDEF! And..." |
Do you understand that so far, no one being appointed to these positions have anything close to the requisite experience needed administer the job? |
The GOP officially becomes a joke when they rubber stamp these picks without any oversight or hearings. |
It’s mid-career. Most serious military members would reach Lt Col or Col by his age. |
So can anyone who has ever served. That doesn’t make them qualified to be the US Secretary of Defense. |
