Unless I am reading it wrong, the article mainly focuses on the fact he is denying the sexual assault allegation. From what I have seen, it was clear he had no management or command experience in the military. Was he on TV saying otherwise?
I think it’s because he didn’t disclose that he paid hush money.
His own lawyer confirmed to NPR a couple days ago, that he and his accuser ‘reached a settlement’ in which Hegseth offered money in exchange for accuser to sign an NDA, which is basically saying ‘hush money’ but with a lot more words.
Trump wants to lead people to believe that the DOJ was ‘weaponized’, and the best way to do that is to get a cabinet that won’t be mired in stuff like this after they allege that they have ‘fixed the DOJ’. If nobody is being prosecuted or sued it’d be offered up as conclusive evidence that the DOJ was, in fact, weaponized, and the less-informed would eat that right up.
Logical fallacy I may add, but the bar is set pretty low for his backers. If they just stay out of trouble after the inauguration they don’t need to fix the DOJ, and instead use that as ‘proof’ that the DOJ was unfairly targetting Trump and Co.
But, if the DOJ is still prosecuting and they’re still facing civil suits that kinda shoots that whole narrative to shit
We were under the impression that he had commanded a national military before, as we had seen him in the TV.
