All Pete Hegseth talks about is being a warrior and instilling a warrior mindset in the military. Personal courage is the cornerstone of the warrior ethos. I wonder how that fits with being such a coward as to fire generals with 35 or more years of service in a press release on a Friday night.

Hegseth isn’t a warrior. He’s a weak wannabe pretend tough guy. Only a coward would hide in the dark like that afraid to face the people he’s screwing over. He can run with Special Operators and do pushups all day but when it came time for courage he slunk away.

I'm a bit puzzled by the whole warrior thing. Wars are won by soldiers working together, not by individual fighters of great prowess (which the word "warrior" suggests). The Romans demonstrated as much in their wars against the Gauls. This all just sounds like a bullshit teenage power fantasy.

He is laying the groundwork to use the military against American civilians. He definitely wants to massacre protesters. Occupying liberal cities is not out of the question. Remember what Hafez al-Assad did to Hama in 1982? Trump would gladly do that to San Francisco.

I have never seen a 'real warrior' have their mommy go on tour for them to try and gaslight the public to not feel what they're feeling or seeing what they're seeing when it comes to her child. She is an enabler and these kinds of mothers make monsters. The 'Karens' of Mothers.
