Pete Hegseth and push-ups [View all]

Not that this has anything to do with anything . . .

SECDEF Pete Hegseth said during his confirmation hearing that he had done 57 push-ups that morning before showing up for his hearing.

BFD.

I’m 80. Retired from the Army in 1995 with 28 years of service, one tour in the bush in Vietnam. Completed US Army Ranger School in 1968.

I’m 80. I do 200 push-ups a day, 6 days a week. At 0600 I knock out 2 sets of 50, then, before bedtime I knock out another 2 x 50.

I will not get into sit-ups, lunges, curls, bench presses . . .

Hegseth is a wimp.


Oh , and did I mention that my 56-yr-old daughter - partner in a white shoe DC law firm - knocks out 200 a day also?
