That's crazy. He was great in Fox and Friends. I am surprised he wasn't the best person for the job. Who will it be now? Maybe that Tyrus guy from Fox at night. He looks scary. I bet he would do a good job.

Steven Seagal loves Russia almost as much as Trump does, which has to put him in consideration. Seagal also made a movie called One Shot One Life which I am sure everyone remembers well. Seagal overcomes the odds quite often be insurmountable odds and always wins. That's the type of guy we need running the world's most powerful army. It works every time in movies.

Yeah, but Hogan brings all the Hulkamaniacs with him. This will make it much easier to take over Canada and Red, White, and Blueland. He'll be the greatest. We'll rename Canada Hulkamerica, and they'll be the greatest state ever, bigly.

The bad part is, this scenario is not completely out of the question.

Well, that's where Hulk Hogan would do a good job. I do think he lack of theatrics has been something that our Secretary of Defenses have been missing in the past. Hulk Hogan would do a good job. It would also be a good way for the military to raise money selling merchandise.

Our foreign adversaries are wetting their pants laughing. How maga can defend this shitshow is unfathomable. Even Fox Anchors can not keep a straight face anymore.

If we do not impeach Trump soon, and amend our constitution to keep future republican presidents in line, we will never be taken seriously, The longer we wait, the stupider we look as a nation. america can not be trusted anymore, meaning we will no longer have the global reserve currency. I almost feel like that is Trump's plan at this point, to destroy this country, exactly what he said Joe Biden would do if elected.

no, just amend it so we don't allow our president to weaponize our trade policies without congress having to intervine. Seeing as how our Republican congress is doing nothing, they can not be trusted either; they are complicit in this and I am pretty sure that is how foreign leaders see it as well. Republicans brought this o nus, not the democrats. Until they, at the very least, grow a spine and collectively push back against this president, why would any foreign leader take us seriously?

Yeah, I don't trust a party that tried to remove the opposition party's candidate from the ballot, either. No matter how terrible this guy is, that was the wrong move and may have been part of what got Trump elected. The best possible result of the past two Presidencies would be two new political parties, and ultimately the Dems and Pubs go the way of the Whigs

How many more "anonymous sources" reports (from friggin NPR of all places) that turn out not to be true are the board kooks gonna breathlessly rush here to report as fact before they have a moment of self reflection about how clueless they always end up looking when these anonymously sources left wing circle jerk opinion pieces dressed up as actual news fail to pan out? We're on at least year 9 of these types of stories yet it's the same wash, rinse and repeat with the board morons.

I am skeptical he will be replaced. That would mean Trump admitting he made a bad hire, which I doubt he would do. Also Pete is perfect for the job. The job requirements for that position are to do whatever Trump says, and Pete excels at that skill.

Almost new vintage PT Cruiser 2005 model year. Fire truck red, low rider, fully tricked out.

Owner was a little old lady who only drove the car back and forth to church every Sunday, 4 mile round trip. Except for one eeek every six months, when the car was serviced by the original dealer.

Bargain price of $40,000 for this vintage beauty.

Oh yeah, and NPR vouches for this great deal.

therefore, the bar would be raised very high for POTUS to digress and release Sec. Hegseth from his duties. The situation would need to make POTUS look bad in some way before he would consider changing direction for DoD Secretary in my opinion. I don't think we are there yet. And.....it is the New York Times who are leading the charge on this one with the release of the article citing an anonymous source. That right there would likely keep POTUS from making a move against Sec. Hegseth.
