Lloyd Austin is least qualified for sure. He needs a special waiver to bypass the law in order to
become secretary of DoD. That means by law he was not even eligible for that DoD job. Congress of both chambers had to have special legislation solely for him to bypass the law.
He is the least qualified because his civilian life is too short. 4 years, geeze. Most of us here are 4 times, 5 times more than him. When Truman drafted the legislation to create DoD back then, he did not care about the military background of the secretary, or at least weren’t concerned enough to address the issue in the legislation. Civilian experience matters much more militarily one for this job.
But what Austin's 4-year civilian life looks like? The board member of defense contractor. He represented special interest group, nothing else.

Hegseth! I associate Austin with the Afghanistan rout and the DEI emasculation of our military.

Yep. Austin was a stooge, and was not qualified for the job.

Really? Do you associate Hegseth with mismanagement of a small foundation, no experience with a
large agency, inappropriate drunken behavior and not washing his hands for 10 years?

There’s a reason Secretary Austin was confirmed 93-2 by the Senate.
In his cabinet selections, President Biden appointed experienced professionals who understood the enormity of their posts and their duties to the nation and our Constitution.

Level 2
There's a reason President Trump was confirmed in a landslide by the American citizens. BOOM!

Should the Board be censoring this type of misinformation?
