Some Republicans want to blame Secretary of War Hesseth for starting the war with Iran, which led to their defeat in the election, and vote for his impeachment next week, reports CNN, citing sources. The impeachment initiators accuse Geseth of persuading Trump to attack Iran "without an exit strategy and without a plan to deal with the inevitable political consequences." Trump himself is still confident in his flesh, he has personal sympathy for him and is going to resist attempts to impeach him or open an investigation against him, White House interlocutors told CNN. Just two days ago, the president was in the same room with him and said: "You are the best I have," said one official. Trump also fears the resignation of the Secretary of War, since confirmation of a new candidate for this position requires the consent of the Senate, whose majority will be held by Democrats starting next year. Note that to resign the Secretary of War, a simple majority in the House of Representatives and 2/3 votes in the Senate are needed. That is, for that to happen, a significant portion of Republicans must support impeachment. And if Trump is against it, it will be difficult to gather votes. We also wrote that Gasth was not the initiator of the start of the war in Iran, because he is usually not a figure capable of initiating decisions at this level (he is the technical executor of Trump's decisions). Republican hawks like Rubio, Ratcliffe and Graham played a major role in pushing the US president to attack Iran (more on that here). These are also the "hawks" who are now promoting the issue of Gessett's resignation, because they want to establish control over the Pentagon and weaken Trump's influence on it. That is, they are actually trying to "hold" Geseth responsible for their decision on the war with Iran. We analyzed the results of the US elections here.
