She didn't have her own words.That's for sure....
Mark T. Esper is a delusional brainless Trump hating liar. Only a brainless dumbass like you buy what he is selling.My guess is that Trump will give him an illegal order to fire on American citizens who are protesting. It'll look more like My Lai than Kent State. Trump will die in office and Hegseth will be up on charges of mass murder.
I’m a Marine. I Can’t Get One Part of the Pete Hegseth Hearing Out of My Head.

Former Pentagon chief Esper says Trump asked about shooting protesters
At his Senate confirmation hearing yesterday, Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth refused to state whether he would follow an unlawful order given by President-elect Donald Trump. During the nationwide protests after George Floyd’s murder in 2020, Trump asked the then chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, “Can’t you just shoot them, just shoot them in the legs or something?” It is entirely conceivable that during his second term, what was previously a question becomes an order.
Everyone in the military chain of command swears an oath to the Constitution that requires them to disobey unlawful orders—and to be very clear, a mass shooting conducted by the government against its own citizens is definitely that....
Former Defense Secretary Mark T. Esper said President Donald Trump inquired about shooting protesters amid the unrest that took place after George Floyd's murder in 2020. He recounts that incident, and many others, in a wide-ranging interview with NPR's Michel Martin on All Things Considered.
Esper said he stayed in the administration because he worried that if he left, the president would more easily implement some of his "dangerous ideas."
The former Defense chief also said he hopes Trump does not seek the presidency in 2024.
"We need leaders of integrity and character, and we need leaders who will bring people together and reach across the aisle and do what's best for the country. And Donald Trump doesn't meet the mark for me on any of those issues."
Only low IQ morons think that anyone would ask someone to shoot people in the leg.
What we did notice, which brainless tools like you wouldn't, is the strawman hypothetical bullshit Democrats engage in.
Trump will give them plenty of illegal orders. IMO, they'll all be prosecuted for it too.

His caretakers should put more "special sauce" in his oatmeal. A handful of fentanyl wouldn't hurt either.

you don't jack shit about being christian.Agreed.
His comment about his "Christian tattoo" is a half-truth...meaning a whole lie. It's a Christian Nationalist tattoo.
"Christian nationalist" is an oxymoron since a Christian is a Christian first and only, not a nationalist much less a racist.
Hegseth, an admirer of the Crusades, sports the Latin words “Deus Vult” on his bicep and a Jerusalem Cross on this chest.
It's Pete Hegseth's theology that ought to concern us – Baptist News Global
You may like or not like Pete Hegseth’s politics, but it’s his theology that ought to concern you more, Mark Wingfield says.baptistnews.com
“Deus Vult” translates as “God wills it.” The phrase dates to 1096 in the first Crusades. More recently, it has been adopted by Christian nationalists and far-right militia groups as well as perpetrators of racial violence.
Likewise, the Jerusalem Cross dates to the Crusades and has seen more frequent usage among some Christians. It is the combination of that symbol that caused some of Hegseth’s own colleagues in the National Guard to report him as a possible insider threat.
you're fool spouting nonsense.
