Trump expected to name himself to replace Hegseth as Secretary of Defense

[GulfofMexico]

Unnamed sources have been quoted as saying that Dictator Trump is expected to name the most qualified person in history to be his new secretary of defense---Dictator Trump himself. Known as an incredible military strategist, Trump can stop wars in one day with a single phone call. He already has the nuclear football, so he can fire a hail Mary at any country at any time, so advisers believed it wise to consolidate authority in the man most qualified to wield it. Top regime advisers further believe that Trump taking over as his own secretary of defense is the only way to make American defense great again.

10. God help us if Mike Flynn is his replacement.

He could do really serious damage to the US military. Putin highly recommends this move.
