Taking bets on whether they’ll be more or less incompetent. Taking bets
Probably a different FOX News reporter.
It's truly hard to imagine a pick less competent than Hegseth, though I've been surprised by the administration before.
Over/under
2/1 both ways. While he sits on the left side of the bell curve, so do the people hiring him. Taking bets, taking bets
Curious to know how it'll be determined? Time in office? If fewer days than Hegseth, that would seem to imply less competence, but I feel like a highly competent person in this administration wouldn't last long at all. There needs to be some optimum level of incompetence to survive. So a less competent SecDef may actually last longer, but cause more damage.
Time till catastrophe. Hegseth managed a catastrophic failure after sending battle plans to his friends and family. He stayed in office long after a major unforced fuckup, but that was someone else’s fuckup and therefore not counted in Hegseth’s competence.
a more competent secdef, would challenge TRUmp too much.
he sourced hesgeth from fox and friends, probably another on: possibly hannity, since hannity has been with trump and various golf meetings over the years.
Now, the hard question. Do you think that he would be better or worse? 2/1 odds either way~~
slightly more competent, but not by much. mostly because hesgeth is drunk all the time.
