Pete Hegseth Secretary of Defense

[CO. Hoosier]

DANC said he did. He was right:

Fox News' Pete Hegseth opens up about post-traumatic stress after Iraq deployment

In a new episode of Fox Nation's "Nuff Said with Tyrus," decorated Iraq and Afghanistan war veteran and Fox News co-host, Pete Hegseth, opened up about the challenges facing America's veteran and his own experience transitioning from military to civilian life.

www.foxnews.com

Okay. I know someone who has a 100% military PTSD disability from the Iraq war. Hagseth doesn’t appear to be anything like that.

 

[DANC]

I’m surprised a conservative hoped a progressive would win.

The idea that Aloha is a conservative is laugh out loud funny.

 

[BradStevens]

You’re getting soft in your old age. Find your balls or delete this handle forever. I’m very disappointed in you.

Marriage is softening him up. Just wait until he is humbled by children. He'll be the next Cosmic Kid.

 

[Aloha Hoosier]

No, I got tired of your single-minded obsession with all things Trump.

You have a real mental problem - and I'm not joking about that. You have serious mental issues - you can't let anything go. You bought the Russian Collusion hoax hook, line, and sinker. Others were smart enough to let it go when it was proved it was a hoax. Not you. Facts mean nothing to you. Admitting you were wrong would destroy your fragile ego.

You really should have a mental health examination. I'm sure the VA could hook you up with a good mental health professional. They're used to dealing with mental health obsessions.

You can't help yourself. You're a serial liar. How did I buy the Russian Collusion hoax? You still don't really know what Mueller found - you only know what you were told he found. You wouldn't know a fact if it slapped you in the face. You think that opinions are facts, and your opinions are worthless.

Tell us all about how 2000 Mules was credible. Its creator is apologizing for it now.

Isn't being a serial liar a mental affliction? You certainly have the affliction if that's the case. I honestly do believe you're the most dishonest poster that has ever cursed this board. And you just might be stupid too. Not as stupid as dbm is, but that's not a high bar, is it? What does your therapist say about your inability to stop lying?

 

[BradStevens]

That’s only if you take the strictest definition of Conservatism. If you take the American political definition, 9/10 self-proclaimed Conservatives would tell you that radical change is warranted in many/ most departments of the executive branch.

So the American definition is 180 degrees from the standard one?

It's OK to not be a conservative. Some times in history and in a certain place or society may call for being a radical.

 

[CO. Hoosier]

That is simply untrue. Many here were bothered by both--you, for one.

Of course. I often employ hyperbole to make a point. The salient point is that nobody who mattered or who could have changed things cared about that. In fact, many engaged in active deception about the problem.

 

[Aloha Hoosier]

It's exactly the same. You believe anonymous sources, while named sources swear the charges aren't true.

You can't stand Hegseth because he'd shit-can some of your good buddies in the Pentagon who gave gotten fat on their work policies.

You've put your career and ego ahead of the country time and again. You have lived off the teat of the government your whole life and you can't stand an outsider coming in and cleaning hours.

You stayed in the military because you couldn't do anything else and you loved having the power over the enlisted. I've known many of your type.

Proof that you're mentally challenged. You post nonsense all the time. LOL!

 

[ChicagoFineForNow]

So the American definition is 180 degrees from the standard one?

It's OK to not be a conservative. Some times in history and in a certain place or society may call for being a radical.

I think Conservatives would tell you radical change is needed to conserve the constitution and the founders vision of government. And they’d be right.

 

[The Original Happy Goat]

Loser gnat

I thought you put him on ignore. Keep him there. You always look stupid, but you'll look at lot less stupid if you stop responding to Aloha.

 

[DANC]

Surely you’ve been around people like Trump. You play the game…you have to word things in such a way as to make them think they are driving the bus.

You use them to accomplish your goal. Some people refer to them as “useful idiots”….as opposed to your preferred idiot who is in no way useful

He was perfectly fine with the Biden Crime Family being in charge.

 

[Aloha Hoosier]

The idea that Aloha is a conservative is laugh out loud funny.

You remain too stupid to understand the being conservative does not require voting for a totally unfit Trump.

 

[Marvin the Martian]

What is it about Trump that turned your head to mush and turned you into a dishonorable POS? That's some real TDS there.

Edit - If your head was mush and you were a dishonorable POS before you gave your life to Trump, I apologize to Trump for your condition.

Liberal derangement syndrome. If someone left of Genghis Khan says "Freedom is good" they reflexively go to, "We need an authoritarian."

 

[BradStevens]

Okay. I know someone who has a 100% military PTSD disability from the Iraq war. Hagseth doesn’t appear to be anything like that.

It sounds to me like he attributes his drinking and maybe his womanizing and difficulty staying in his marriages to PTSD. That would be consistent with (1) actual PTSD (maybe not the worst version of it) or (2) chickenshit excuse making on the back of people who suffer from a real affliction because of his own weakness/lack of self control.

Or it could be something else entirely. But we need to know this if he is going to be SecDef, don't we?

 

[DANC]

I think it's very dangerous to have a mentally unstable person as Commander in Chief. I'd prefer to avoid that situation. Now I'm with those of you that HOPE that those around Trump save him from his worst instincts and prevent him from making crazy emotional decisions.

LMAO But you were fine with Biden. Your double standard is so obvious, loser.

 

[BradStevens]

Of course. I often employ hyperbole to make a point. The salient point is that nobody who mattered or who could have changed things cared about that. In fact, many engaged in active deception about the problem.

So because the last admin did that, the next admin can do anything they want?

For the millionth time, two wrongs don't make a right.

www.foxnews.com

It's almost impossible for someone who has seen combat like he has to not have some form of PTSD.

Let's not make it seem like anyone who has had PTSD is crazy....... In fact, having PTSD proves you are sane in the first place. I would be very leery of anyone who has killed to not be affected by it. Wouldn't you?

 

[Aloha Hoosier]

LMAO But you were fine with Biden. Your double standard is so obvious, loser.

Once again, you prove you're dumber than dirt. Biden was clearly deteriorating mentally and physically. It comes from age. In fact, more than a year ago I said he shouldn't run because of that deterioration, and they should have a primary. Unfortunately, he dropped out too late for that. That doesn't make him mentally unstable the same as I honestly believe Trump is mentally unstable. Trump literally has little to no self-control.

I have no double standard, but you're not smart enough to understand. You should just stop. You're not smart, you don't have a clever bone in your body, you're humorless, and you're a serial liar. I'd rather not correspond with you. I prefer reading and laughing at you. LOL!

 

[Spartans9312]

The labels around here are all super confusing. Ty and the guy he supports are calling for radical change to the establishment and you are identifying them as conservatives. How do you describe someone who supports Ron DeSantis and doesn't support Donald Trump? Do you have to support Trump to be a conservative?

No. Aloha has labeled himself a conservative. I assume that is the socially liberal and fiscally conservative type. That is not the makeup of the coalition that voted in Trump.

 

[DANC]

You can't help yourself. You're a serial liar. How did I buy the Russian Collusion hoax? You still don't really know what Mueller found - you only know what you were told he found.

LMAO And you just can't help yourself. No 'collusion' was found - nothing even close. Yet you still persist. Mental problem.

2000 Mules? You mean the film you can't refute? Mental problems.

Claiming I have a mental affliction after I've shown you have one is a childish comeback. I know you have nothing else, so you'd be better off just keeping your yap shut.

Here you go. Take that first step. https://www.va.gov/contact-us/

 

[Bulk VanderHuge]

Brad works hard to be middle of the road and “level-headed”. I’m sure he has more conviction than he often displays on this board. Correct, I do not care what anyone random stranger thinks of me. I speak truth no matter how much it hurts. And you, my friend, have demonstrated yourself to be a dumbass.

Do your worst brother. Couldn’t care less what a pseudo conservative that wanted Kamala in office thinks about me. TDS to the nth degree.

The best way to convince everyone you don't care is to repeatedly tell everyone you don't care.

That's okay though, Skippy. Just remember this (even if it is a load of bullshit): "You're good enough, you're smart enough, and doggone it, people like you!"

 

[DANC]

I thought you put him on ignore. Keep him there. You always look stupid, but you'll look at lot less stupid if you stop responding to Aloha.

No, I like to see you and Aloha dancing like puppets on a string.

STFU, loser.

 

[Bulk VanderHuge]

2000 Mules? You mean the film you can't refute? Mental problems.

Dude, the director himself has refuted it.
Aloha is 100% correct about you.

 

[Aloha Hoosier]

No. Aloha has labeled himself a conservative. I assume that is the socially liberal and fiscally conservative type. That is not the makeup of the coalition that voted in Trump.

I'm not nearly as socially liberal as you might think. I was one of the posters here that argued against same sex marriage. My opinions on it haven't changed, but it's no longer relevant. The entire country has flipped on the issue and now it's the law of the land. I'm also the guy that started the thread on trans women (males) should be ashamed of themselves for doing women sports and beating women. My opinion on that hasn't changed either. I think the DEI stuff is stupid and I'm good if Trump eliminates that BS. I'm pretty socially conservative and fiscally conservative. I'm just not a Trumpster. However, 20 January he's our President and I'll support the President as I always do. I HOPE his people keep him under control.

 

[DANC]

You remain too stupid to understand the being conservative does not require voting for a totally unfit Trump.

No, much better to vote for an Alheimer's patient who promotes woke policies and starts us down the road to WWIII.

 

[twenty02]

You can’t see the forest for the trees. It doesn’t matter if there is any new news there. That’s the point. They make shit up and get it backed by anonymous sources. It’s a hit job, on all of them.

So where is the hit job on Bondi?

Or...

Scott Bessent
Rubio
Stefanik
Burgum
Ratcliffe
Etc....

He has admitted he's a different person than he was 10 years ago.

People are able to overcome their past, thank God.

 

[The Original Happy Goat]

For the millionth time, two wrongs don't make a right.

Let's not forget that the last admin probably only did 1% of what CO.H thinks they did.

 

[ChicagoFineForNow]

The man is asleep at the wheel!

 

[TyWebbIU]

This isn't one isolated incident. It's many. From many different sources. Including the guy's freakin' mom. Hell, he's admitted to the drinking and banging the one chick who was at the hotel with her family. He's a wreck.

This is the SecDef. We don't need a guy who can't handle his liquor, has PTSD, and has no relevant experience running a large organization or instituting change in one. It's more than just having an idea "hey, this needs to change"-- it's having the ability, knowledge, and experience to accomplish the change while still running the 3 million + person organization.

He was a wreck. Maybe. Doesn’t mean he is one today. The drinking stuff has been refuted. You are just sopping up everything the smear campaign masters throw at you. Maybe your real bias is shining through? Not sure. The pentagon has not passed an audit in years. It is a disaster. Hegseth can bring about needed change.

So, whatever Lloyd Austins qualifications, he failed miserably at nearly every turn. An outsider is the answer. Hegseth might be the answer, if we don’t disqualify him for having a beer.

 

[DANC]

Biden was clearly deteriorating mentally and physically.

And you voted for him! lmao There's no sense in arguing with you - you keep exposing yourself with your own posts.

Yep, that was Aloha's boy in 2000. Even thought he was showing serious decline, Aloha was all aboard the Biden train.

Solid. Respect. But you’re still a pussy in my book.

I never said collusion was found, but you still haven't bothered to read it to see what really was found. It's not flattering to Trump.

2000 Mules is flat out trash, which has been debunked completely. and now Dinesh D'Souza has admitted most of it is BS and is apologizing to those he falsely accused of voter fraud (some lawsuits involved too). The thing was obvious garbage to anyone that had any intelligence so it's no surprise that you bought it. It was designed to bilk dupes out of their money and D'Souza succeeded with you. Aren't you proud?

You are a serial liar. I honestly think that's probably a mental affliction. Is that one of your VA disabilities?

 

[Aloha Hoosier]

Yep, that was Aloha's boy in 2000. Even thought he was showing serious decline, Aloha was all aboard the Biden train.

You do know that polls show that Biden (in serious decline LOL) beat Trump in two debates according to the overwhelming majority of Americans per the polls.

 

[snarlcakes]

There are only 3 reasons I don’t want Chicago getting annexed by Canada. The Cubs, you, and bad ass Favre. Now I’m down to the Cubs and your communist a#%.

 

[Aloha Hoosier]

He wasn't in 2020, dumbass. Why don't you move along and stop embarrassing yourself.

Well, genius, that's what the investigation was all about - Russian Collusion. So you bringing it up is just.... weird. You do what all the Democrat propagandists do - throw shit against the wall and see what thinks. That's not flattering to you.

Sorry - you saying something is flat out trash without anything to refute is just means it's hit the mark All you do is rage against it, but you've never been able to refute the methodology, preferring to come with ancillary bullshit that has no bearing on the ultimate findings.

Bet you still think Biden got 84 million votes, don't you?

Again, can't you come up with something other than 'Oh yeah, you are too"? Stop acting like you're 12, unless you really are regressing mentally to a child-like state.
