"Why is Pete Hegseth still here?" Trump made a declaration

ABC reporter Jon Karl spoke with Donald Trump, who expressed his intention to keep Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense despite receiving calls from dissatisfied individuals. Trump acknowledged that it would be easier to confirm a new secretary before Democrats take control of the Senate in January. Speculation arose about Ron DeSantis potentially replacing Hegseth, as DeSantis criticized party members for their performance in the recent elections. Trump defended Hegseth's work but noted that if Hegseth were appointed to the Senate, he would be popular. Meanwhile, Congressman Thomas Massie announced plans to reintroduce impeachment proceedings against Hegseth, supported by some party colleagues and Democrats, following the Republicans' disappointing election results.
