1. He's in so over his head

Doesn't have a clue what the job is or how to do it.

2. One thing all politicians SHOULD do

Is take the word SHOULD out of their vocabulary.

Trumps word smithing proves his people were wrong. An NCO in the military with a little experience handling and transmitting classified documents knows trump lied about an incredibly important piece of information. Or as Senator Duckworth said, he was not telling the truth. It was his attempt to save the day and he failed. Miserably.

3. Excellent point. TFG will never admit he was wrong no matter how insane and convoluted his explanation is.

And he's apparently willing to accept the same nonsensical explanations from "his" people.

4. Hegseth is woefully unqualified and exceedingly inept.

.... Plus Hegseth is so elated that he landed his head of the DOD job. Now he is eager to show the world what a big big shot he is that he is letting his guard down as far as security considerations are concerned. So people can peek in on and look over his shoulder while he is doing his important bigshot stuff.

See,... see,... look at me - I'm not a funky who has access to wartime video games like all the other kids. I am the warmonger war gamer who is the most powerful one in the universe. See,... look over here,... I have my finger on the nuclear button and could launch multiple warheads to save the world from the nasty and naughty bad guys.

Like an adolecent frat-boy,... all the power and authority thus far bestowed upon him - is blowing up like a latex balloon - and this latex balloon which is really in actuality his head - is about to soon explode if people don't keep an adult supervision eye over him.

This endangers all parties involved in this Kegsbreath Hegseth macho wargamers charade - most of all the United States of America and the people who give a damn about this country - who stands to lose big time.

This is why only qualified mature individuals are issued keys to castle where the Knights armor and armaments are stored. Not with some nincompoo, hot headed, drugged out drunken, a immature frat-boy in charge of the weapons depot.

5. Very well said and I'm sure that you're right.

This incompetent frat-boy was attempting to show off. But we also know that of all TFG's unqualified nominations, Hegseth was likely the most dangerous.

6. Hegseth wears his toxic masculinity like a,...

.... purple heart or a badge of achievement and honor.
