President-elect Trump’s nomination of decorated Army combat veteran Pete Hegseth to be secretary of defense brought out the worst in the liberal media. Much of the pattern was on display during Wednesday’s edition of ABC’s The View as they actively diminished and discredited Hegseth’s 20 years of distinguished service in the Army by claiming he “does not know anything about the military,” and suggesting he’ll just get lost in the Pentagon.
Moderator Whoopi Goldberg, who screeched whenever someone mispronounced “Kamala,” kicked off the conversation by mocking Hegseth’s last name and that he was a co-host on Fox & Friends Weekend:
GOLDBERG: [Trump] also picked – you ready? Co-host of Fox & Friends Weekend, not even, like regular, weekend, Pete Hegsgeth.
[Cast members telling her how to pronounce his last name]
GOLDBERG: Hegseth?
JOY…
