Veterans know what the threat is and what to do about it. They are the experts in survival and are expected to protect the constitution.
Yup.. that’s why they voted for DJT…
@@PC-tc5je that guy that posted on truth social about disbanding the constitution to get what he wanted.
Also, the guy who is picking nominees who are EXTREMELY unqualified just because they would be loyal to him over the constitution. That is why he clashed with Mattis, McMaster, Kelley, Milley, etc….. because they honored the oath they took, swearing to the constitution not a person; and little Don’s ego couldn’t take them not doing whatever he wanted.
@@PC-tc5je Really..???? Guessing?
@@PC-tc5jethat's very funny, got any more terrible jokes?
@@jeffreypotts3493 Milley should be called back to duty, court-martialed, convicted and given the maximum penalty for treason.
The real question is why is it that ONLY SIX republican senators have issues with Hegseth's nomination.
Pointed discussion! That guy Hegseth is already TOAST!
@@marilynrowland5197 Yeah, and Kamkam had the presidency already in the bag.
Wet commie dreams….
😂😂😂😂😂
In laws = Outlaws
Who has their mother show up (for a job interview) to plead their case for a job? No adult over 18. Probably nobody over 14 years old!
What if they are a mentally challenged democrat, can mom come then ?
The same Joni Ernst that when Obama was POTUS and 2 people had died from Ebola "this shows a complete lack of leadership" and was silent on Trumps handling of Covid? That Joni Ernst? Oh great just like Susan Collins, will talk a good game but fall in line every time.
Joni Ernst managed the supply of trucks in Kuwait. She isn't the female version of Rambo :-) Anyway . . . The SecDef needs to come from the top ranks of the military, or you end up with the likes of time-and-motion bean counters, such as Donald Rumsfeld. And we know how that panned out. in Afghanistan and Iraq :-)
I thought Kammy was going to flip Iowa.
She let Kavanaugh through. I'm from Iowa, can't stand her.
He sent his mommie out today to clean up after him. Give me a break.
He served on the battlefield and is a two-time Bronze medal recipient. He's in
You need a break (how much sleep have you got since Trump's victory?)
Because the dems brought her into it. Just when I thought the dems couldn't be any more pathetic, they go after the guy's mother
So you're slamming an ex combat veteran for struggling with a substance abuse issue???
But in the same breath, you are likely cheering on the Biden family's drug addict for getting pardoned by his dad??? The very man that said he wouldn't pardoned his son.
I did stuff with you mom too, give me a break.
She is going to do no such thing..more BS from MSNBC
Joni would be an excellent choice. She's a woman, that would be a big plus for Trump. But she also has a love for her military comrades. She's a hardliner in the Republican Party.
Sen Ernst will vote NO.....NYET in MAGA talk ! LOL....as will Collins and Murkowski and even McConnell will say NO
He can't put her in charge.
1: She's a veteran
2: She's a WOUNDED veteran
3: She's a WOMAN!
All things that disqualify someone in his eyes.
A wounded veteran? Ernst? Uh.....no.
Joni Ernst is the only woman in America who tries to look older than she is.
Trump can’t afford to lose another senator!
11 years
Hegseth is unfit for job , toss him
He was a better fit for the job than Joe Biden or Kamala Harris was for being president.
@@linuxpatriot200only in your head.
Seriously, get help.
So were Harris, Buttgieg and Mayorkas.
Who weren't tossed either.
@@linuxpatriot200 clearly he isn’t when even Trump congressional bootlickers won’t vote to confirm him.
so is trump. I wish we could toss him!
Nicole Wallace always has that "freshly sharted my panties" look on her face when she's TDS'ing over orange man. I guess when you're so wrong so often, you just wallow in your orange man misery.
Like Caesar’s wife, these cabinet picks ought to be above reproach.
they are more like nero's wife
Your mom isn't above reproach after last night.
One GREAT choice after another! Isn't it FANTASTIC that we finally have genuinely capable individuals appointed to run our country?!? What a breath of fresh air!
We need flash cards of all these nominees and what jobs they are being nominated for!
They should include each ones’s photo and qualifications (if any), their background and a list of which Senators are on the relevant committees that deal with the agency or department they are being nominated for. Including the addresses and phone numbers of those Senators! Give the American people the tools to make our voices heard to the Senators who will be voting on these confirmation hearings!
You could offer digital downloads, yet messages, and/or printed snail mail versions! Postcards that could be addressed to our Senators with a list of key messages to include about each nominee and why they should not be nominated would also be a great idea!
I would start with simple things like if the nominee has no relevant experience or qualifications or if they cannot pass an FBI background check BEFORE the inauguration, then they should not be confirmed!
If their only qualification is blind loyalty to Trump they should not be confirmed! If they are vulnerable to being compromised because of their questionable behavior they should not be confirmed!
I think you get the idea!
Doesn’t matter NONE of them are qualified
If it comes down to her, I doubt it.
I am no fan of Joni Ernst but one of my senators from Iowa is a much better choice as DoD secretary than Hegseth.
One call from Trump and Joni will fold like a cheap lawn chair.
Ha!
@@dannybagley9424 Joni will never fold like a cheap lawn chair just because the D-Rat legacy media demand this.
Joni would do a far better job than Pete.
@@Marty_Wanlass😂😂😂😂
nominating her will get rid of 1 of his detractors in the senate, just like nominating ruebio opened up a senate seat for 1 of the trump kids... ron dasantis has to fill that senate seat before becoming a general....
Joni would be the first to admit that women should not be in fox holes.
This job is perfect for DeSantis. But he shouldn’t have to give Rubio’s senate seat over to Lara as a pre-requisite. That is nepotism, if not illegal.
He's got a soft job in FL. And Republicans love him down there. He won't give that up.
Do really think they care whether it is legal or illegal?
Like how your mom takes it?
Find a qualified military member with command experience
come on feel the noise
girls rock your boys
we’ll get wild wild wild
Transphobe
Like most other Republican women she will probably disappoint.
How about confirming Hegseth, but also let his Fox News colleagues join him so they can fix him up before the start of every day on the job? Breath mints, lots of coffee and he looks almost sober.
@davidschultz6028 Many Iowans love neither Pete nor The CONVICT Trump. Your threat against Ernst is silly given Pete's troubles. In fact, are you even an Iowa resident???
I was thinking about this whole shameful debacle this AM, and I had the thought: it'd be different if Hegseth was some kind of unique military genius that had an extreme amount of experience and if America were at war on three continents and "just" had some proven cases of marital infidelity - and we ended up just kind of overlooking it for the expedience of saving the ship. Instead, he's a total clown and a piece of garbage who has essentially zero experience and his only "qualification" is fealty to Trump. I would ask the GOP: is THIS the best?? I mean, I'm assuming the DoD is FULL of probably a thousand experienced officers who lean right who would be orders of magnitude better.
You took the seat of your bicycle didn't you?
Why does the pardoning of Hunter go back to encompass the past 10 years???
The next 10 years, statute of limitations will run out then.
Because of Trump's threats of retribution, real or imagined.
Why does Nicolle Wallace always sound drunk?
Senators that dont support Petes nomination, will pay the political price in the Midterms
👍👍👍
They have a fifty, fifty chance
When did Lindsey Graham become "moderate"? 😂😂😂😄😍😂😂😂😄
Joni Ernst is the next Liz Cheney.Bye bye Joni!!!
Only 6 ????🤢🤯😱🥺
They'll all say he learned his lesson. Heck, he's a "good ol' boy" how could he not?
What's it like to be stupid?
@@GodSlayerIblis like a good ol' boy!
Iowans for Pete!!!!! Vets in the DOD!!
Not that one. He doesn't have your best interests at heart. The military needs a vet, yes, but one who loves the Military.
In other news... "Hunter Pardoned by crooked Joe" not just one instance, 11 years worth!!!
Did you forget to take your Adderall today? Go take your meds.
Get over it! It’s a done deal
HOW MANY OF TRUMP'S PICKS ARE MEXICAN?
Do you mean how many are Latino?
How many are black? How many are Asian? How many are women? His racism is showing
BREAKING: depression has skyrocketed among liberals and Democrats since the election.
🤣
I find humor in trumps sh.. show.
@@TT-qo9dv My thoughts exactly!
Not at all, us Liberals are sending Big Mac coupons to Trump. We wish him well.
@@mistahcoughdropwild how all the "regulars" who used to be here...aren't...anymore

@@jjj-u5oEnjoy your cool-aid. I hope it works out for you. 🙂
We might not all agree on everything but one thing we can all agree on:
Trump is your next president.
trump will fix everything.
He may be the next president but he will never be "my president" and I refuse to accept him as such
@@americanpatriot6484If you want to call implementing a fascist dictatorship agenda fixing everything
He will be the first felonious president
@@Klaatu-Barada-Nikto-1951
Not even in office yet and Trump's already failing, just like he did during his first clown show of a presidency; these next 4 years are going to be extremely entertaining, watching him fail and fail and watching his voters drop their mouths in utter shock.
Our mouths will be open wide, like your mom's.
@@GodSlayerIblis I learned the hard way to never talk about a democrat guys mom, they cry and scream and might even pull your hair
Trump 🙌🇺🇸🙌🙏
Make my city Chicago safe again🤣
🤦♀️🤦
Apparently you didn't get the memo, the Donald only cares about the person he sees in the mirror.
Still trying to troll in MSNBC comment sections? Still no life?
@@NoMudNoLotusGRL speaking of trolls, what do you get when you cross a troll and a democrat,?
No one knows, the trolls wouldn't sink that low
Speaking of Tanks, how many did Biden, Harris, and Lloyd Austin leave behind for the Taliban?
Speaking of the Taliban it was donnie fata** who made a deal with and released 5,000 Taliban soldiers right before he left office the first time around.....
Love your picture…it’s so you.
Zero

Might I remind you, Democrats, YOU LOST!... Horribly!
why?
@b.t.2797 Why you lost?
@@PC-tc5je3 years 4 subscribers, like anyone really listens to you!😅😅😅😅
False. Trump's margin was 44th out of last 51 race.
@JanBirkeland Wait… you responded, so you listened… are you really unaware of that? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Regardless of Pete’s outcome, at least he didn’t suffer an embarrassingly historic defeat in the presidential election like kamala!! 😂🤣
Historic? Hardly.
Historically historic.
It was a very close election, and nothing historic about the results.
She lost the popular vote by 1.5 percent.... that is hardly historic unless you figure that it's one of the lowest margins in a long time
@@TT-qo9dv It was herstorically embarrassing to watch
We the people love and support Donald Trump.
are you sure, grandpa?
@@b.t.2797you one of the last hold outs of the grandma cult

@b.t.2797 yes, son… yes. Now go change into your Jammies…. K?😘
False...and never...ever.
Fun fact, president Trump will pardon all of the January 6th patriots
Of course, cops beaters deserve to be pardoned. Law and order...

Yes she will, if she goes against the needs of ameicans.

Im not comfortable with biden bding a hypocrite,liar,racist.😂😂prove me wrong.i hav facts.😂😂
Trump is looking at DeSantas, because his daughter-in-law Lara Trump wants to be Governor of FL.
How low will they go
That's not how that would work, lol! Kara Trump couldn't just step into his shoes as Governor of Ron becomes SecDef. The state has a Lt. Governor for a reason. If DeSantis were to leave the Governorship, the Lt. Governor would complete the remainder of the term.
Is anyone else happy 😊 that we don't have to spend TRILLIONS of dollars 💸 to rebuild Hamas now!!!😊😊😊😊😊 Thanks Trump 😊
Yes, tell it, trump is hoingvto lose to kamala😂😢😂
Um, Boris, what does "hoingvto" mean?
@@NoMudNoLotusGRL it means you lost
Amazing how many judgmental idiots are running around the country!! People who think that they're life has been flawless and perfect you are sadly mistaken. Some learn from the mistakes made and have confessed them to their Heavenly Father who is forgiving of all who believes in him, and is the only one who has the Judgement of everyone.
Joni will support Pete!
Pete Hegseth doesn't take 'no' for an answer, just ask the dozens of women he assaulted.
Joni knows Iowans love Pete and Trump.. if she wants to keep her job
She best go with our states wishes
Or suffer like Selzer and the D.M. Register..No RINOs will lead Iowa in its future...Pete is the man. Let Trump have whoever he wants.. says the MAJORITY of VOTERS!!! Roadblocks will be delt with.. including Joni if she chooses it... Viva Hawkeyes!!!!!!!
He should choose Joni. She's hardwired Republican, but would do a good job. She does love the Military.
Joni Ernst just needs a little diction therapy to lose the Midwest nasal twang and she’d be fine on TV.
She needs to show up in her uniform. That'll convince Trump. He's so impressed with uniforms, till they tell him no.
If Trump picked Hunter Biden, Nicolle would say that is a good pick
Time to come up with some new comments, troll.
Potato joe thinks African leaders are dull and boring. Zzzzzz
