In the video above, I explain why you should not be afraid of the event of Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump in front of the generals. Please give him a watch.
The fear is on which Donald Trump and his administration count. It is much easier to obtain the compliance of people or companies if they are afraid of what could happen if they retaliate.
The main motivation for Trump and Pete Hegseth calling generals in Virginia around the world was the desire to appear strong.
Pete Hegseth told the generals:
It all starts with physical form and appearance. If the Secretary of War can make regular hard PT, any member of our joint force can also. Frankly, it’s tiring to watch the combat training or really any training and see fatty troops. Likewise, it is completely unacceptable to see large generals and admirals in the corridors of the Pentagon and leaders in the country and the world.
It’s a bad look. It’s bad, and it is not who we are. So, whether you are a forest ranger or a chewkend, a whole new private or a four-star general, you must meet the standards of size and weight and pass for the PT test. And as the president said, yes, there is no PT test, but today, in my direction, each member of the joint force at each rank is necessary to pass a PT test twice a year, as well as to meet the requirements of size and weight twice a year, each year of service.
Also today, in my direction, each warrior through our joint strength is necessary to do PT. Each day of service should be common sense. I mean, most of the units already do it, but we codifying it and we are not talking like hot yoga and wear a very strong pt. There is either as a unit, or as an individual at all levels, chiefs jointly in this room to the youngest private.
The leaders establish the standard and many of you already do so, active guard and reserve.
Pete Hegseth, causing the appearance of generals without any real policy or strategy to offer them, was a warning.
The real Tell came when Trump spoke.
