In a bizarre attempt to outdo his own record of unconventional cabinet picks, President Trump has nominated Pete Hegseth as his next Defense Secretary, because what could possibly go wrong with a guy who's already got a reputation for being a bit of a wild card?
In a stroke of genius, Hegseth has inadvertently revealed the secret to global peace and stability. It's quite simple, really: all we need to do is demand that our enemies appoint defense ministers who are drunkards, notorious philandering brutes, and adept at fiddling with budgetary allocations.
Imagine it: Russia's Defense Minister, Shoigu, stumbling through a press conference, slurring his words, and bragging about his latest conquests – both on and off the battlefield. China's Defense Minister, Wei Fenghe, would be too busy embezzling funds to bother with pesky details like military strategy. And North Korea's Defense Minister, Kim Jong-gak, would be preoccupied with his own reality TV show, "The Drunken General."
The benefits of this approach are numerous. For one, our enemies would be too busy dealing with their own internal chaos to pose a credible threat to global security. Two, we'd finally have a legitimate excuse to send our diplomats to international conferences armed with nothing but a dozen bottles of fine scotch and a playlist of Barry White's greatest hits.
Of course, there are risks involved. What if our enemies somehow manage to get their act together and appoint competent defense ministers? What if they discover that the key to success lies not in embezzlement and philandering, but in actual military strategy and diplomacy?
But let's not worry about that now. After all, as the great philosopher, Donald Trump, once said, "We'll just wing it, and it'll be tremendous, believe me."
