Greg Kelly Calls for Hegseth to Drop Out, Backs DeSantis

Pete Hegseth, defense secretary nominee, has "serious baggage" and is not the right pick, while Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is the "perfect fit" that President-elect Donald Trump needs, Newsmax's Greg Kelly said.
"No one's perfect, but it's a perfect fit," Kelly said Wednesday on his program, "Greg Kelly Reports," about Florida's Republican governor. "Administrating the Pentagon, the biggest federal bureaucracy, and making it lethal again and not woke and all those things. I think it's a perfect fit."
Kelly said he did not support DeSantis' run for the presidency this year, "but he's been a very good governor of Florida."
"When you're the governor of Florida, you're responsible for a lot of things," said Kelly. "That is the kind of resume that really qualifies you to run the Pentagon. ... I think DeSantis, if the opportunity becomes available, and I think it's going to very soon, he should take it because he's not good at running for president."
Hegseth, meanwhile, "hasn't done nearly enough for MAGA to warrant the Department of Defense job," and his "baggage," including reports of sexual misconduct and alcohol use, along with reports of an email his mother wrote him and then rescinded, are also concerns, said Kelly.
"There are some problems here, sorry, big time," he added.
