      2/1 both ways. While he sits on the left side of the bell curve, so do the people hiring him. Taking bets, taking bets

        Curious to know how it’ll be determined? Time in office? If fewer days than Hegseth, that would seem to imply less competence, but I feel like a highly competent person in this administration wouldn’t last long at all. There needs to be some optimum level of incompetence to survive. So a less competent SecDef may actually last longer, but cause more damage.

          Time till catastrophe. Hegseth managed a catastrophic failure after sending battle plans to his friends and family. He stayed in office long after a major unforced fuckup, but that was someone else’s fuckup and therefore not counted in Hegseth’s competence.
