    Is it even possible that a former Fox News host is not capable of being the head of the DoD? Surely this can’t be true.

    Trump demands loyalty from anyone who works for him, but he’ll throw them to the dogs to save his own ass. Mike Lindell, Rudy Giuliani, Scaramucci, Bannon, and plenty of others are no longer part of the inner circle.

    Hegseth is getting off easy; He’ll probably get a streaming or podcast deal out of this.

    On one hand im thinking a “double tap” kinda makes sense. And maybe even reflex, or " instinctual" of someone who’s been in the military. I guess the time duration in-between “taps” is relevant, and also, these are missiles, not bullets. So a few extraneous issues.

    Now im also thinking, these boats are likely many miles from shore, so with that in mind… after 1 missile and the boat is destroyed and probably everyone injured, no one is going to make it home alive… hitting the boat again to finish off survivors sounds merciful. Is that OK? Or am I thinking crazy?

    If i get blown up in the ocean and lose a limb, I think thatd be the end of me. Send another missile and finish me off please.

    Am I being crazy?
