Pete Hegseth Secretary of Defense

He would be an excellent SecDef. The Florida mob will be running the country. POTUS, Secretary of State, secdef, chief of staff, National security advisor, AG and a few more.

Maybe Palm Beach can become the seat of power .
He would be excellent but damn that’s a risky move on his part.

There a lawyer taking down a big guy in that? I thought he was a fixer?
The titular character is the fixer, but Tom Wilkinson’s character is the lawyer taking down the big guy (Tilda Swinton)

Edit: the final showdown doesn’t take place in the courtroom, but still has all the drama, etc. probably not as high on your list since the lawyer isn’t the star of the movie.😉
 
Your guy is going down. He'll pull his nomination to keep from embarrassing Trump more by going through the confirmation hearings where all his dirty laundry will be aired out.

Ton of smoke and the background investigation will probably find several fires:

 
Now this I could see. Lara to the Senate and in exchange Desantis goes to Defense. If he displays even an ounce is disloyalty he’s immediately made a private citizen. Could be good for both sides.

Nonsense. He’s very popular down there and Trump is like a god. If Trump wants him to be the next governor he will be.
He would get absolutely destroyed in a statewide race. He had like 20 percent approval in fla. Half the republicans don’t even like him. He’s a total Fing creep. He makes walz seem normal. Has zero accomplishments. There’s absolutely nothing that would suggest that any sane person would back him for gov. People hate Desantis in fla but support him bc he’s competent. Gets shit done. Hurricane responses etc. Gaetz has nothing redeeming. He’d get destroyed

The scary part is he might be able to eek out a statewide Republican primary, but then Republicans would be taking their chances in a general when DeSantis has built a 20 point cushion that any Republican should be able to cruise on.

Gaetz meets all of dbm's requirements for being a good candidate.

Requirements:
1 - Slavishly devoted to Trump.
2 - See 1.

Zero accomplishments? He got rid of McRino.

Y’all are so full of shit. Both dems and republicans here. This is a smear campaign against every one of Trump’s picks. Hegseth drops out they move on to Tulsi, RFKjr and Kash with similar smears. Time to take a stand and support Trump’s picks across the finish line. Toughen up buttercups. Don’t allow them to propagandize you into weakness.

The only opinions that matter are the those of about 10 Senators. I don't think they read the Water Cooler
 
Right. 20% approval. Right.


He would get destroyed STATEWIDE.

They answer to their constituents. This board is a reflection of that. If their constituents are as weak and easily swayed by the smear campaigns…well it’s not what conservatives should want. Trump was elected because the majority of US citizens want change. For Hegseth, that means to help us get out of the forever wars. To get woke out of the military. Etc. People don’t want status quo. And if that’s what these 10 Senators force. They’ll lose their seat next time around.

It'll never come to a vote. Just like with Gaetz. They'll be told behind the scenes he doesn't have the votes and he'll withdrawal. Trump obviously already looking for a replacement. Maybe Hegseth can change some minds, but doesn't look good for him right now
