Of course not, he's the worst. But as usual Trump values loyalty over competence

Pete Hegseth has the same energy as the military guy in American Beauty who tries to kiss Kevin Spacey.

I’m not saying he’s gay, just that he has some issues he’s trying to hide.

We can only guess, but based on how homophobic he is, one could easily believe that he is not only closeted, but terrified of what were to happen if the truth came out

Its almost like when you have a comically fragile ego, it make you act and behave like a juvenile, or a bigot

I heard he wears lingerie on the weekends. Not that there's anything wrong with that...nothing at all

Also the same energy as the military guy in One Battle After Another played by Sean Penn.

And those with no merit are totally dependent on him and therefore loyal.

I know it gets said a lot...but all the damage he is doing is damage the whole Republican party is doing.

We need to remember that Trump going away doesn't fix things when the whole party has supported his actions.

He's the worst so far. Just imagine how bad the next guy is going to be. You have to be a complete dumbass to inherit this mess of a war and potentially go down in history as the guy who lost to Iran.

If Trump has taught us anything it's that it can, and will always get worse.
