I am guessing, no more wars that he would need to oversee.

You’re saying Democrats don’t get divorces?

Well, our party hasn’t run a thrice divorced guy with 5 kids by three women who paid off a porn star her cheated with while claiming to be the party of “family values”.

Yeah our party only had a president who sticks cigars in an intern's vagina!

THIS ^^ I can't even take people like the PP seriously.

Two bronze stars

I love how liberals have zero sense of humor. Literal Liberals, to the end.

Oh well...if he can relate to being in the military then sign him up. It is the Secretary of defense so being able to relate to being in the military would be such a great quality.

The current one was previously a four star general

The one who decided to have surgery without telling anyone - not even his second in command? That one?

That one should have handed in his resignation a while ago.

If you're saying this guy is better than that guy, I'm not reassured.

Will the Senate confirm him? Is that a question for tomorrow, after the new Majority Leader is decided?

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?

A good SecDef doesn't need to have had military experience. Sorta the whole point of it being a civilian position

Ah, a progressive woman with no military experience declares the Secretary of Defense doesn’t need military experience.

🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 out of 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 for you, congratulations.

Yes...he or she doesn't...look up the history of the establishment of the office...can someone else back me up here?

Wtf would you want someone with no experience in charge of the military?

You can answer your own rhetorical questions that you already have an answer to. Have a nice evening.

Hmmm he doesn’t seem to think much of that.

That little clip is not helping this pick make any sense. Why is he being a drama queen?

As the secretary of defense is a civilian position intended to be independent of the active-duty leadership, a secretary is required to have been retired from service for at least seven (originally ten) years unless a waiver is approved by Congress.[22] Since the creation of the position in 1947, such a waiver has been approved only three times, for Army general George Marshall in 1950, Marine Corps General Jim Mattis in 2017, and retired Army general Lloyd Austin in 2021.[23][24]

Looks like another lizard.
