Because Elon Musk will primary any Republican Senator who votes against Hegseth:
WOW. Senator Reed isn't holding back: Variety of sources, including your own writings, implicate you with disregarding the laws of war, financial mismanagement, racist and sexist remarks …alcohol abuse, sexual assault, sexual harassment and other troubling issues…

▪️"Would you carry out such an order from President Trump?"▪️ "Would you shoot protesters in the legs?"Hegseth dodged and refused to answer these questions.The protesters in DC that day were American citizens exercising their right to assemble and protest.2/

Throughout today's hearing, Pete Hegseth has made his fealty to Trump abundantly clear. As Secretary of Defense, he will do the bidding of and swear an oath to the President, not to the Constitution, even if it results in shooting U.S. citizens with differing political opinions.3/
