US President Donald Trump has admitted that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has detractors. The American leader told reporters in the Oval Office of the White House amid discussions about possible personnel changes in the leadership of the Pentagon. In response to a question about Hessett's future as head of the military department, Trump suggested that the secretary would have opponents. At the same time, the president criticized the views of some American military leaders. According to him, there are many four-star generals in the United States who hold ultra-liberal beliefs that he does not like. Earlier on Thursday, Trump said he had no plans to fire Gest, despite complaints against him. A day earlier, CBS News reported, citing sources, that the president had been talking to advisers about whether Hesse should remain at the helm of the Pentagon after the Republican Party's defeat in the midterm congressional elections.
