Wow, what a moron Hekseth is, just as big a moron as Trump. I only heard some clips of what he said today although I watched about 10 minutes of Trump's lunacy about how wonderful his signature is and how terrible Biden's is.

"No more beardos"
"Everyone will be fit, two physical tests a year".
"No fatties"
"No more emphasis on so-called toxic leadership"

Just a couple of quotes above. He acts like the military fights like it did 80 or 100 years ago. Warfare is increasingly techno warfare. Beards, weight, "appearance"--those things are irrelevant in techno warfare. Intellect and computer savvy are the things that count. The guy talks about how important physical appearance while fatass Trump wanders around in the background. Apparently he doesn't know that for every person in the army who actually sees combat, there are around 8-9 who are in support positions. Sure, some of those positions require fitness but many don't. And he apparently believes that women in the military are just sitting around, fat and unfit, incapable of doing the same things that men do. This is nonsense.

Dumb dumb dumb--IMHO, they will succeed in alienating a lot of intelligent people who would have been military assets.
