I have no idea if Hegseth is in any way intelligent but it could be a good thing if DoD were run by someone who is not in the military/defense lobbyist community. It’s such a closed society and a bloated system and the military folks always demand insiders to run it so there will be no disruption.
Also we know from the previous Trump administration that cabinet appointments only last about a year.
