Donald Trump’s Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth would not be able to pass a congressional confirmation process today, some Senate Republicans have said and now want the president to “move on.”
Several members of the chamber spoke to The Hill on the promise of anonymity to trash the former Fox News anchor now serving as the civilian chief of America’s military. Those senators said that they hoped Trump would “move on” from Hegseth’s efforts to transform his agency, while noting that the decision was ultimately the president’s call.
