President-elect Donald Trump is reportedly considering replacing his embattled pick for Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, according to sources cited by The Wall Street Journal.
Hegseth, a decorated Army veteran and former Fox News host, has come under intense scrutiny over allegations of financial impropriety and personal misconduct, casting doubts on his ability to gain Senate confirmation.
Reports indicate that at least six Senate RINOs have expressed reservations about supporting Hegseth’s nomination.
Hegseth’s military credentials and media presence made him an early favorite among Trump allies.
Enter Governor Ron DeSantis, a former Navy Judge Advocate General and a rising conservative star. DeSantis gained national recognition during his tenure as governor of Florida, where he demonstrated a commitment to military veterans, law enforcement, and conservative values.
But this waned, when he ultimately decided to run against President Trump in the presidential primary.
This is a developing story.
