CNN political analyst Scott Jennings had nothing but praise for the way Pete Hegseth handled himself during the Senate hearings today, despite the unhinged behavior and questions from people like Elizabeth Warren, Tim Kaine, and Mazie Hirono.
Jennings said that Hegseth ‘kicked their asses’ and that they didn’t manage to lay a glove on him.
He also chided these Democrats for their incredibly unprofessional behavior.

CNN analyst praises Pete Hegseth for dodging Democratic ‘mudslinging’ at confirmation hearing
CNN’s conservative commentator Scott Jennings gloated over defense secretary designee Pete Hegseth’s performance under a barrage of Democratic slings and arrows during his confirmation hearing Tuesday.
“In short, I think Pete Hegseth kicked their asses today. I mean, it wasn’t even close. They didn’t lay a glove on Hegseth. No mistakes. Calm, cool, collected,” Jennings told his CNN colleagues when asked by anchor Dana Bash…
The former Fox News host has generally been seen as one of President-elect Donald Trump’s toughest forthcoming nominees to get confirmed, but Jennings argued that Hegseth was well prepared for Dems attacks.
“I was appalled at some of the way these senators handled themselves and some of the lines of questioning. I mean, Tim Kaine sounded like a sex pervert in his questioning of Pete Hegseth,” Jennings jabbed.
Watch the clip and note how depressed the other hosts look as Jennings speaks:

This afternoon, Jennings added this comment on Twitter/X:
They didn’t lay a glove on Hegseth today. Why do Dems send their dumbest members to this important committee?

Jennings is right, Hegseth did do a great job. Most people expect him to be confirmed after today.
