WSJ: The Embarrassing Pete Hegseth

Featured Replies

  • Popular Post

So we've all seen the cringefest that was the Pete and Donny double moron whammy a few days ago, making a complete laughingstock out of the US of A. It's beyond comprehension that even parts of the MAGA faithful would not have felt embarrassed by this utter and complete clown show.

And now, even the reliably loyal WSJ needs to put it out there, that Pete Hegseth is a muppet, and probably the worst Sec of Def in American history.

 

"The Pentagon needs sober, judicious leadership, not a drama queen who makes things jarring and fevered."

"When you are driven by a sense of urgency you must still try to act like a normal person—normal in your comportment, which means sober, judicious. Not like some pumped-up drama queen who makes everything more jarring and fevered, and who comes across as the living answer to the question, “What would it look like if Captain Queeg took Adderall?”

You know why people say something’s wrong with this guy? Because it appears something is wrong with this guy."

    The left's hysteria over Hegseth reminds much of their unhinged hysteria over Brett Kavanaugh. Also complete nonsense accusations by deranged haters trying to destroy a persins life because they dare

Wow. Peggy Noonan. A primary speechwriter and Special Assistant to President Ronald Reagan from 1984 to 1986.

Some members have previously extolled the "masculine virtues" of Pete Hegseth.

This has been toned down.

But sometimes there seems to a touch of longing in the admiration AN members express for Hegseth.

Praise from those who are in love with the guy is not convincing as a political argument.

I do not have much of an opinion on Hegseth either way. That the left hates him, attempts to belittle his service and has to rely on mostly false claims to attack him, is enough for me to support him. 

 

The left would have me believe that both Hegseth and JD Vance are silly buffoons, while Tim Walz is a man's-man, and was competent to be Commander in Chief. 

 

The left has lost all credibility.

Imagine what the Black, DEI generals must have been thinking?????

 

Idiots do not, by and large, get to become generals.......yet to become a Secretary of State?????

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!   I do not have much of an opinion on Hegseth either way. That the left hates him, attempts to belittle his service and has to rely on mostly false claims to attack him, is enough for me to support him.

So, who's more embarrassing?  Pete, or the WSJ? 

 

Along with the rest of the MSM, they're suffering the worst ratings and lowest credibility in the history of the American press.

 

Meanwhile, I hear the military recruiting is up.

You know he has to be doing something right, or the left would not have to lie to attack him, they could just attack him honestly.

The scariest thing is that it's impossible to tell nowadays whether they have a legitimate policy complaint, or they just hate the Bad Orange Man.

 

When they're railing in support of a child abusing, wife beating, human trafficking MS13 illegal who's been under order of removal, they lost my support.  And whatever respect I had for the so called Fourth Estate.

This always happens when the job market is crashing......and the only alternative is picking fruit.

Job market crashing? Unemployment is basically the same now as when Trump took office.  

 

Nice try though.  

Does anyone think bringing all the generals back made sense for that lame speech. Imagine a general getting his troops together when he's back overseas and explaining to them why he was summoned back home.

We are now going to use American cities as training grounds.. no more donuts .. or something.

I think bringing them back made sense. 

 

I've been on conference calls, and I've flown in for meetings, and the latter is generally taken more seriously.

Then recruitment must be through the roof in Newsom's California.

Edit:  On an aside, I wonder which come first, the chicken or the egg?  Do unemployed people move to Blue areas for the freebies, or do Blue policies put more people out of work?

Release the Epstein files unredacted.

How many service members is Pete Hegseth responsible for that died due to Bidens and Sec-Def Austins sheer and utter incompetence and stupidly, how many billion of dollars of military equipment did Pete Hegseth gift to the taliban during bidens botched Afghan withdrawal?

 

Feckless haters go NOTHING as usual. The only thing embarrassing is the muppet Pete Hegseth replaced, the same muppet that went AWOL, informing nobody of his unexplained absense.

I would imagine the  whole show was a cover, the real reason, well war with Iran is going to happen very soon, tankers have been movedinto position, the Iranians have made it clear any new attack on them by the US and they will attack US bases in the middle east

Wasn’t that part of the plan? So much of what has been going on has been to deflect away from the reality.

Don't forget "Russia, Russia, Russia".  Still waiting on slimy Adam Schiff to produce the "evidence of Russian collusion".
