Hegseth

[TigerGrowls]

Good analysis imo. The hate for Hegseth is out there from the left. He's safe and will work hard for Trump.



Why is Hegseth so important, and why do they want him out so much?

A Color Revolution is a kind of insurgency. An insurgency requires making people fear it more than the actual government.

Beyond being a decorated combat soldier, Hegseth was also a counter-insurgency instructor in the army for many years.

But it goes deeper. Hegseth is mediagenic and media savvy. He’s a charismatic communicator. And by all indications, a large number of troops love him.

In this way, he’s vastly more effective than an older SecDef who might have more political and policy sophistication.

This is important because with that level of support amongst the troops it makes it unlikely that any Deep State officers will be able to move their troops towards insurrection against the current administration.

Put another way, it’s not so much what he can get the military TO DO. It’s what he can prevent the military from doing.

And that’s why they are desperate to get rid of him.

Soldiers hate Hegseth. He’s incompetent and is definitely in the closet. He wears more makeup than a drag queen

I don't buy this

Yeah he definitely has a secret grindr account

 

[sleepy64561]

He’s questionable at best

 

[TigerGrowls]

I don't buy this

What about it and why?

 

[Warlock]

I think your read on this one is probably right, OP.

Record recruitment says this take is nonsense lol you’re just butthurt because he kicked your trans boyfriend out

 

[baltimorened]

unless the military has changed significantly from when I retired there won't be any movement by troops in insurrection. even bringing that up as a Non possibility is reckless IMO

You keep telling yourself that people are joining the army to serve under Hegseth. They’re joining out of desperation because the economy is in shambles

What about the civil war?

 

[PAWrocka]

I have two Marine buddies, both of them are “MARINES” through and through. Even though they are out and have been out for 15 years, they both still have that “look” in their eye from time to time if you know what I mean ….

both are hardcore Republicans, both think Hegseth is a complete toolbox …

 

[baltimorened]

What about the civil war?

the last civil war was about 150 years ago..a lot has changed since then

 

[GDead_Tiger]

Hegseth is getting impeached

The constitution and national security measures are still in place so measures can be taken in emergency situations.

Because he is. He has nothing in his history to indicate he's a man of quality or worth respect. My grand dad was a Marine, he would have hated Hegseth.

[Warlock]

He's toast. If Trump doesn't fire him, he's getting impeached.

The American public deserves to see the footage of our troops murdering helpless, shipwrecked civilians during Operation Southern Spear.

He’s an alcoholic, a wife beater, a philanderer, a racist, and a misogynist

I normally sympathize somewhat with people who struggle with addiction, but not him. He's also a true white supremacist.

Very very doubtful,... nice try.

 

[coldbud1994]

I don't buy this

Not one bit. This is a man that brought a You-Tuber (Jake Paul) to the Pentagon to tell the military brass how to be tough.

 

[coldbud1994]

What about it and why?

He might have picked up an award for something, but he was a public information office in the military. That is a job for people no one else likes. Calling him a decorated combat veteran is misleading.

 

[Warlock]

Massie is on the floor moving for Hegseth impeachment. No secretary of defense has ever been impeached before.

Yep. He was never in combat. Jd vance got closer to the sh*t than Hegseth.

Vote required by Wednesday.

 

[Warlock]

Massie has won me over for the most part. I love how he looks like he stepped out of the 19th century.

He has the same Coke deal as Rubio and Don Jr

I can assume you were in combat .....

If this doesn't make you a fan, nothing will

 

[LafayetteBear]

He’s an alcoholic, a wife beater, a philanderer, a racist, and a misogynist

And those are his good qualities.

Sounds like JinxyPat, except for the pull-ups..

Hegseth served in combat dickhead. If you dont have an answer you should shut your piehole. The only other answer is you lied on purpose.

Yes, Pete Hegseth served in the military and had combat deployments. [1, 2]

• • Military Service: Hegseth was commissioned as an infantry officer in the U.S. Army National Guard in 2003 and served as a major until 2021.
  • Deployments: He deployed to Guantanamo Bay, Iraq (supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom), and Afghanistan.
  • Combat Awards: He was awarded two Bronze Star Medals and the Combat Infantryman Badge (CIB), which is presented to infantry soldiers who personally fought in active ground combat.
  • Military Records & Evaluations: His service evaluations from his time in Iraq noted that he led an infantry platoon through months of combat operations, including air assault raids and base defense. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Cartel members and drug traffickers should be shown no quarter .

Hegseth should be fired, impeached … should’ve never gotten the job in the first place … but it’s **** like you posted why we are here.

they were drug runners and were dealt with accordingly

[TigerGrowls]

Hegseth is doing a great job imo and should remain.

Yeah no. Guy is terrible. Just a moronic meathead. Tough when your own party thinks you’re a dick.
