Pete Hegseth had to answer a lot of questions today. Some were important, some made sense, some were insane, and some were flat-out insulting and gross.
Looking at you, Tim Kaine.
All of that being said, Republicans did a fairly good job of showing just how qualified Hegseth really is for the job. While Sen. Markwayne Mullins held Senate Democrats accountable for their own hypocriticial BS, newly elected Senator from Montana (so long, Jon Tester!) Tim Sheehy came forward at the end of the hearing with what we think were some of the most important questions of the day.
Watch:
Sen. Sheehy asks a series of seemingly simple questions:

"Right there you’re representing qualifications that show you understand what the war fighter deals with every single day on the battlefield. You understand what happens on the front line where our troops will be." pic.twitter.com/Y7HIf1xDvm
The Sheehy (She/He) joke was pretty damn good as well.
This right here, this is the attitude and belief system that won in November. What we saw from Democrats today is on the way out, the divisive, angry, sex/race/prefence-focused outrage is on its way out the door because Americans have finally had enough. There were some of us who never like any of it (we're big meanies) but after so many years of this garbage hurting our country and our people, enough Americans voted to remove it.
We suppose that's really why Senate Democrats lost their minds today, not just because Trump won and his picks are likely going to get confirmed, but their candidate even lost the popular vote, so they have to accept the majority of Americans no longer support THEIR ideas and that's making them crazy.

Well, crazier than they were even before.
These confirmation hearings are going to be highly entertaining going forward ... for us, not for Democrats.
