CNN panelist Scott Jennings has been vocal in defending President-elect Donald Trump’s choices for key positions, including Pete Hegseth for defense secretary.
Jennings argues that voters are tired of traditional Washington insiders and are drawn to candidates like Trump and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for their perceived authenticity. The debate also touches on Trump’s campaign against 'wokeness,' particularly in the military, with Jennings defending the president’s stance despite criticism from other commentators.
The discussion highlights the ongoing cultural and political divide in the U.S. over issues like military leadership and political correctness.

This is just another example of the ruling class distracting us with culture wars while both parties continue to serve the interests of the wealthy elite.
It’s wild how they’re trying to lump Trump and AOC together just because they both have some populist appeal. AOC is out here fighting for working people, while Trump’s picks are just more corporate cronies who’ll keep the status quo in place. The whole "anti-woke" thing is just a distraction from the real issues—like wealth inequality, healthcare, and corruption. We need leaders who will challenge the system, not defend the same old power structures.

It's about time someone pushes back against all this "woke" nonsense and actually focuses on people who will defend individual freedom and limited government.
Honestly, I'm glad to see someone finally standing up to all this woke nonsense, especially in something as important as our military. Trump’s picks might not be the usual Washington insiders, but that’s exactly why people voted for him—because they’re tired of the same old establishment. We need leaders who focus on strength and common sense, not political correctness.
Finally someone on CNN who gets it! Trump is shaking up the system and standing up to this woke nonsense that’s been weakening our military and country for years.
