No. It is not. As I’ve stated umpteen times it is embarrassing that DJT is our President. There are so many negative things about HIM that this forum points out ad nauseum. But in the world of poor border security, DEI, class warfare directed at the rich, demonizing police, he is at least not from that party. I’m no Hegseth fan. I just believe that it was Trump’s right to pick him. Even more so with RFK Jr. as I often end these posts…. The American people clearly chose Trump over the alternative. Let’s see if ‘the alternative’ learns anything from that? |

Hegseth didn’t arrive on the job saying he was a changed man. So, no reason to give Hegseth a break and see if it was real. "Trumpsplain (def.) explaining absolute nonsense said by TRUMP. |

It's embarrassing, but that does not stop you from supporting him and his political appointments. If the dude in Maine wins a Senate seat, will the then say "I'm not a fan, but it's the voters' rights to pick him. The voters in Maine clearly chose him over the alternative." and then support him, like you do Donny and Pete and Jr.? |

I don’t ‘support’ Donny. Nor Pete. And I detest Jr. For I’m sure the same reasons you do. I just believe that because I hate him doesn’t mean the doofus President can’t nominate him. I ABSOLUTELY respect the voters’ rights to put in the worst of the worst. I don’t think the squad should be ousted from Congress by anything other than a vote by their constituents. So, yes, if the voters pick Platner then of course I’d recognize his right to be their Senator. It’s a rare guy/gal that needs to be removed. (Santos). |

The Prez should just get anyone he wants in appointed office. The Senate needs to do its job on behalf of the American people. Confirming Jr isn't that. |
