“I’d like to hear Gates explain is why he reckons anyone should trust his judgment about anything” Every time this man speaks he embarrasses himself. I hope he gets his consequences and shuts the fuck up

👏 👇 It’s a good article, other than overascribing intelligence
Here, the explanation may be simple:
Trump sees himself in Hegseth. From angry culture war posturing to his willingness to challenge the media and an obsession with image over substance, Hegseth's qualities are fundamentally Trumpian, suited to a television personality and not a public servant. Indeed, more than anyone else in the Trump administration, the self-styled "secretary of war" is uniquely well-positioned to mimic Trump himself in this way.

Luke Ontario @coolhand.bsky.social · 10h
He’s a narcissistic meathead. Case closed
What, then, is driving Hegseth? His policy preferences and ideology remain remarkably opaque even at this point. Profiles of the secretary have focused primarily on his reli-gion, suggesting he may be a form of Christian nationalist. Yet despite bringing extreme preachers to the Pentagon, and monthly prayer ses-sions, he hasn't pushed much of an explicitly religious agenda.
