Bottom line...Can he do the job?
Actually, the question is whether there are people available who can do the job better than him.
If Trump's main prerequisite for picking him is because he thinks he'll be unquestionably loyal, then maybe his inability to remain faithful to his various wives is actually quite a big deal.
I think loyalty is a component. I also think the guy's view of what the military needs to be, plays a huge part. This is a guy with two bronze stars, so he's no perfumed prince. So, in that area, he's a true believer.
The problem is the wimmen.

Seems like that's true of a few of Trump's picks. I'd guess the levels of narcissism are higher than average in that little group.

Yet, the narcissist just pulled off maybe the biggest comeback in American politics.
Ever.
So, there's something there. Maybe it's just the economy. Or maybe the country likes a fighter and is tired of the legacy media blowing smoke up their ass. Or feels like lawfare is unfair and unAmerican.
And if his opposition doesn't get their head out their ass and figure out why the guy got elected, they may get a chance to live with the narcissists policies for the next decade.
