The Trump And Hegseth Show: Toxic Masculinity
And use US Cities as military training grounds
By Liza Donnelly, Sep 30, 2025
Today, Pete Hegseth and Trump gathered 800+ Generals, spending millions to bring them to Virgina just so he and Hegseth could have a photo op. It was a joke, Hegseth looked riduculous. A former FOX talk show host talking to 800 men and women who have risked their lives for our democracy. I don’t really want to spend too much time on it, but it really annoys me. Their effort to ram a toxic brand of machismo down our throats is offensive.
Hegseth: “No more climate change worship, no more division, distraction or gender delusions,”
There are no words to describe this Not My President. –DrWebHe wants to get rid of facial hair in the military.
He wants everyone in the military to be really “fit.”
He defended his firing of more than a dozen military leaders, many of them people of color and women: the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr., who is Black; the first woman to command the Navy, Adm. Lisa Franchetti; and the U.S. military’s representative to the NATO military committee, Vice Adm. Shoshana Chatfield.
Walking around stage, he said he wanted to change the military’s “stupid rules of engagement” that he claims limit war fighters in the field. Hegseth had fired the top lawyers for the Army, Navy and Air Force in an effort to “remake the military into a force that is more aggressive on the battlefield and less hindered by the laws of armed conflict.”
He wants his “Department of War” (what Trump wants the Defense Dept to be renamed, but Congress has not approved it) to be able to play dirty, I guess.
Trump followed Hegseth, and try as hard as he could, he could not get the military leaders to laugh or even applaud. It is customary for miltary personal to remain non-partisan in situations like this, much to Trump’s chagrin. NY Times reporter Maggie Haberman wrote, “It was striking how many times President Trump tried to get the assembled military leaders to break character, or laugh when he mocked his predecessors or used his typical political lines. It was also striking how often they resisted before Trump finally threw in the towel.”
In his rambling delivery, repeating so many of his grievances to the assembled group of high ranking professionals, he brought up tariffs, Joe Biden and the autopen, the southern border, CNN, his feelings about Putin and his desire for a Nobel Peace Prize he feels he deserves. “I think we should maybe start thinking about battleships by the way,” he said at one point, pausing to bring up a 1950s documentary series about naval warfare. “I used to watch ‘Victory at Sea.’ I love ‘Victory at Sea.’”
Trump said he told Hegseth that “we should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military,” referring to urban areas in the US.
This man is crazy and dangerous.
The goverment is close to a shutdown, which will furlough many and stop services. Speaker Johnson has set it up so that this will happen: he canceled votes earlier this month after Republicans in his chamber pushed through a stopgap spending measure to fund the government through Nov. 21. That was a bid to “pressure Democrats into accepting the Republicans’ proposal, but they refused, blocking the measure in that chamber, where the bill is currently stalled, awaiting the 60 votes it would need to move.”
