【國際關係深度評 🇺🇸】 特朗普的國防部長 Peter Hegseth:意想不到的選擇,會帶領美軍到何方?

特朗普任命的內閣官員陸續公佈,雖然全部都是他的鐵粉、非常年輕,第一批的名字卻算是沒有太大爭議,直到國防部長人選出現,在共和黨內部、乃至MAGA 陣營內部,都是始料不及。這位新貴 Peter Hegseth 的背景非常有趣,究竟會否有突破國防政策出爐,現在誰也不知道;能否順利通過任命,因為他的疑似性侵醜聞前科,目前也未100%肯定;至於未來,更是只能從幾點他的背景推敲。

Peter Hegseth 以 Fox 主持人的身份廣為人知,但其實他有不少從軍經驗,雖然軍階不高、難以令那些將軍心服是一大潛在問題,卻不能質疑他不懂軍事。他曾經在充滿爭議的關塔那摩基地服役,負責審訊「拘留者」,這已經成為美國近代外交的一大虐囚醜聞,但 Peter 一直為關塔那摩基地辯護,又曾說服特朗普特赦一些違法軍人,並對退伍軍人權益非常關注。有理由相信他會很受某部份軍人歡迎,如果任內有特別軍事行動出現,他也不會對「關塔那摩式」手法有任何猶豫。在喬治布殊年代,國防部長 Donald Rumsfeld 親自批准一系列虐囚逼供,這方面大概會是 Hegseth 的參照。

不過另一些軍人大概就會非常討厭這位部長,因為他開宗明義反對軍隊入面的「覺醒文化」,認為太多女兵會減低戰鬥力,更不會認為行軍打仗應該處處顧及平權。

在政見上,Peter Hegseth 作為 Fox 主持,很多內容都非常合特朗普口味,除了非常反對政治正確風氣,不斷主張追究武漢肺炎的中國源頭,全部都是新政府的「主旋律」。不過 Hegseth 其實是學歷非常亮麗的傳統精英:普林斯頓大學畢業,然後在哈佛大學拿到公共碩士學位,年前卻在節目中刪掉證書的「哈佛」校名,去抗議哈佛成為左翼 critical theory 「破壞美國價值觀」的搖籃。基本上可以肯定,這是一個有挑戰權威精神的、非常聰明、而有行動力的人。

很多評論認為,特朗普的團隊反正都是按照特朗普的意旨行事,沒有個人自由意志可言,「忠誠不絕對、就是絕對不忠誠」,所以用甚麼人都毫無分別。這自然是不對的:就算是再有能力的領袖,都不可能事必躬親,只可能統領大方向,國防部長對枝節的處理往往才是大方向能否落實的關鍵。就像剛才談及的 Donald Rumsfeld,將喬治布殊的反恐政策推倒當時的最極端,就算是黨內都充滿爭議,但他的新保守主義使命感令他一往無前。

如果 Peter Hegseth 秉承這種風格,美國只要涉及國防,就會變得以色列化,也就是不會顧忌特別行動對人權、環境造成的任何 collateral damage,像內塔尼亞胡清剿哈瑪斯那樣,而 Hegseth 確是非常支持以色列的整個行動。特朗普並非好戰的人,但如果要對外立威,最可能的對手自然是伊朗,Peter Hegseth 對特朗普上個任期暗殺伊朗聖城軍領袖蘇萊曼尼擊節讚賞,任內可能再接再厲,去樹立個人威望。這類特別行動本小利大,如果成功連最高精神領袖哈梅內伊也暗殺掉,就真的一鳴驚人了。

然而他對北約非常反感,也未有流露過對任何盟友的尊重,除了以色列,美國傳統盟友一定對這個任命非常有保留。由於這個職位是美軍會否保護台灣的關鍵,台灣有關部門是時候做工作了。

However, all these are still within the parameters of the legal framework provided. Congressmen can swap leaders by voting, can pass or block resolutions, and within the structure, intention matters little.

You are correct if Republican is still the traditional conservative GOP party with normal morality. But it has become MAGA republican now and nothing is normal any more. You should know the last speaker Kevin McCarthy wanted to work with Democrats to pass a temporary budget so as to avoid government shut down. Matt Gaetz led the MAGA house of representatives to kick McCarthy out. McCarthy asked Trump for help but request denied. All the Republican congress members know without the blessing of Trump, they have no chance to win re-election to keep their jobs. I was surprised you do not know such issues. No wonder you tell me US democracy is very rugged and Trump cannot ruin it. Trump 2.0 may even crippled US democracy this time. Elon Musk is going to cut Federal agencies from 438 down to 98 or even 80 with serious cut at FBI, CIA, FDA, Security & Exchange Commission, Education Department, Federal Reserve etc.. The just released from prison Steve Bannon mentioned Heritage Foundation has already built up tens of thousand MAGA talents to fill up the positions of the remaining fed agencies. Heritage Foundation is the creator of Project 2025. If you don't know about Project 2025, the following link will have a brief introduction. I have to use a Hong Kong proverb: NO EYE SEE...... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y16SZhZJHkI

都係形象 現代戰爭都縮埋後面襟制 男人女人都係咁打 文書野 文件野計算野 操控武器 女人不一定比男人弱 何必限制自己人力?

Good Year

本身男女大不同,軍事行動都要平權真的貽笑大方,經沈生的分析,認為特朗普在國防部長的人選的選擇真的如此這般。哈哈

Trump 條數會唔會係,反正佢地都未必做到四年任期,咪俾啲騎呢怪喺前面擋下子彈,遲啲再擺返個相對溫和少少既人上去,減輕後上官員既壓力? Pete Hegseth 都有個靚學歷代表佢有能力,但係 Matt Gaetz 就連學歷都無,睇 Wiki 啲犯事紀錄成尺厚,似係一個政治三世祖多啲。

That's more the task of the senate majority leader / speaker to discipline lawmakers

Both nomination of Peter Hegseth as Secretary of Defense and Matt Gaetz as Attorney General are horrified controversial that some MAGA House of Representatives and Senators gasp but dare not to express strong opposition. Definitely there are other less controversial potential nominees out there. Why Trump make such a move? Simply to test how loyal are the MAGA republican congressmen to his absurd demand. Then Trump will know how real he has become an emperor like Putin and Xi Jinping. Rep. Troy Nehls of Texas told reporters after a GOP conference meeting with Trump on Wednesday that he and other Republicans will do anything the president-elect asks. “If Donald Trump says, ‘jump three feet high and scratch your head,’ we all jump three feet high and scratch our head,” he said.

Trump 更自我 對一D智識全白或冇所謂旣領域 佢下面班人係點先至關重要 北約局太大佢改唔到的 美軍本身指揮系統聽聞好扁平下 好注重命令本身 佢有一定軍官背景 應該唔難搞 而且防長本身都係文職 比班將軍夾注 又唔睇下有咩作為 個人認為trump 好怕軍佬們自己又唔識收賣唔掂 不如搵個識嘅做翻譯 起碼有個自己人唔比人水到先

Good Year
