@#14 ... Warren's ripping him to shreds. ...

Agreed.

I noticed that nominee-Hegseth has backed away from his prior comments (from a month or so ago) about women serving in the military.

His current comments sound more like he has been coached on what to say during the hearing, rather than any real change of his view on the topic.

@#20 ... Tim Kaine made him look like a fool. ...

Based upon the parts I watched, that seemed to be an easy thing to do.

I will say, nominee-Hegseth is a slick speaker, and presents himself well.

But what he presents, I have issues with.

For example, when asked if he would use the military to shoot at civilians, he dodged answering, and he went off on a deflection.

Even when called on that deflection, and asked the question again, he simply refused to answer the question.

All the above aside, the Republicans in the Senate showed few, if any, signs of opposing the nomination. The Senate Republicans seem to be falling in line, backing down, tail between their legs.

So, has Pres-elect Trump has shown his ability to break down the Constitutional Separation of Powers?

If so, that is A Good Thing - how?

@#35 ... Somebody should ask him how much he paid himself from those two charities for veterans that he left swimming in credit card debt and bankrupt. ...
