The words of the day on the Left and in media (pardon the redundancy as always) are "not qualified," and they're being used in reference to any number of Trump Cabinet nominees and others. One look at where their beloved "qualified" people have led the country and all we can say is count us in to get on board with the "not qualified" people.
One Trump nominee being called unqualified is Pete Hegseth, who the President Elect wants to head up the Department of Defense. The Democrats are calling Hegseth unqualified, so let's see how the people they think are "qualified" have done:

How many people in the private sector could fail that expensively and consistently and still keep their jobs? Lucky for them it's only taxpayer money.
Pretty sure @PeteHegseth won’t let this happen for an 8th time.

There's a reason the Hegseth nomination is feared, and it has nothing to do with their definition of "qualified."
However much @VivekGRamaswamy and @elonmusk take their personal security seriously, it’s not enough and they should do more.

Because I promise you, there will be dire consequences for anyone trying to stop a criminal empire of this size. https://t.co/zTKrbwteaX
Never let anyone tell you that Pete Hegseth isn’t qualified when all they do is fail under the current regime. https://t.co/oFawcxsDXg pic.twitter.com/QM7dPQI8bH

Being called "unqualified" by failures, career swine, crooks and grifters is actually a high compliment.

Here's another one of the people the Dems no doubt considers "qualified" to help run the Pentagon:
The dismissiveness of Deputy Defense Secretary Kathleen Hicks in this clip is simply astounding. Jon Stewart points out the Pentagon keeps failing its audits & she literally tries to laugh it off. This is the entrenched mentality the next SecDef will face.pic.twitter.com/2PGjZuxsRC

Rooting all this out will be a monumental task for the new administration.
