It won't mean anything. Whoever they pick will likewise be an incompetent fascist cretin, just like WhiskeyLeaks.

WhiskeyLeaks
Thank you for this.
Wish I could claim credit for it, but I just stole it from much wittier folks.
Who could have seen this coming!
Everyone “accidentally sucked” into the WH text chain.
Did anybody find the transcript for this second leak? The first one was so cringe and I'd love to read this one as well.
If they ask me, I'll do it
They might... Do you drink on the job? Are you creepy to women? Do you require your spouse to be on work calls? If you answered yes, then you probably qualify!
Take a shot and say that again.
Really, it’s part of the qualifications.
But will you possibly quit drinking if they do?
Never.
Nah, its fine. Remember? He learned his lesson the first time! There was no reason to refuse him office when he was initially appointed! And definitely should not have been alarmed the first time his Signal chats leaked! Nobody would have thought that he would leak it a second time a month or two after the first leak!
What's the problem? Are they having trouble finding somebody less qualified?
Rob Schneider isn't busy, they should call him.
Who woulda think a brain dead, drunk, abusive, warped looking ken doll, wouldn't have the ability to lead the world's most powerful army.
I thought Trump just said he was standing behind Hegseth.
He's just waiting for the bus to come by.
Apparently Hegseth didn't get the hint to bend over
The appointment isn't valid unless announced in a secret group chat (with people who shouldn't be part of that group).
Churning through leaders usually comes right before a business catastrophically implodes. It's not a good sign for the health of the system.
Na, it's been like this in Trump 1. It's because they realy do not give a fuck about humans, even the ones on their side. They are just pawns to be used and disregarded at will.
Not to disagree with your point about failing businesses but the context is so different here; the US government is functioning beautifully. Best functioning ever. Nationally, internationally, top marks. Economy, society, technology top marks. Personnel? Amazing, qualified, competent, trustworthy, discerning, strategic, long-term serious brains on these folks. Need I mention the utter rock-solid stability we've witnessed? It's...hard to describe.
But will they find another perfect symbiosis of bootlickery and incompetence?
I hope I get to laugh in Pete’s face at least once before I die.
How many Mooches is a Hegseth? 9? 10?
