So please explain how Hegseth, Gabbard or Patel are being appointed based on merit....
DEI replaced by TEI....Trump Engineered Incompetence.

They each have a wealth of experience which gives them a broader view of what needs to be done. Too often people are put into place who only know the narrow version of their task.
What is Hegseth's "wealth of experience"? He screwed up running an organization with 10 employees and a budget less than $10 million...and got fired. He reported the news on Fox.
Tulsi Gabbard has been a medic in the army and was in command of an MP platoon. She has held a number of political offices but her only non-government job was as a martial arts instructor. Looks like she has done quite well as a reserve LT. Col and elected politician....
The former representative owns three apartment complexes in Katy, Stafford and Austin, worth $55 million to $125 million, according to the filing.
Tulsi Gabbard raked in massive income engaging Republican audience, filing shows
Kash Patel has never run anything...He was a public defender for 8 years and a trial attorney for 3 years. He has been appointed to one position after another because nobody kisses Trump's ass like Kash.

Where DEI fails is when you end up promoting sub-standard people just because they are not white and male. Examples: Claudine Gay - Harvard President and UPenn President Liz Magill that DEI supporters stood by even after they were too stupid to be able to tell if calling for genocide of the Jews violated their schools policies. Magill had the decency to resign after the well deserved backlash, Gay stayed on the job until it was shown that she was a plagiarist and so many donors refused to give Harvard any more donations. Money talks. If a student in a Community College class got caught plagiarizing the way Gay did they'd be kicked out of class and maybe even out of the school. Gay's supporters stood by her in spite of this.
Getting rid of unqualified idiots like this isn't bigotry - it's common sense.
The support of people like this is why we see the backlash against DEI. People SHOULD be hired based on merit and not on the basis of their skin color, religion, sex or sexual orientation. It really is that simple.

So they failed to enforce censorship on people chanting anti-Israel slogans and that signals incompetence to you?
The rhetoric on both sides was extreme, but only the anti-Israel stuff was a problem....right?

"but.... but.... but.... someone else did something bad too......"
"both sides do it..."
you don't even realize that you are using the same arguments that the MAGAts have been using for years.
Neitehr of those women deserved to hold the positions that they did. They are both gone. It shouldn't have taken that much to get rid of bad leadership.

plagiarizing is why Biden dropped out of race for President first two tries
that student could become President as Biden
Again...aside from your opinion that the anti-Israel demonstrators should have been censored and weren't...what is the evidence that those people were incapable of doing their jobs?
I've worked places that were almost entirely white males. I've been lectured by my CEO for having two female candidates for jobs in my department. They did not become the top candidates to comply with DEI quotas. They made the top of the list by being interviewed for two days each by multiple other employees and managers.
You continue to assume that people are being hired solely because they are minorities. That isn't true of any place I worked. When two candidates were considered and they were equal in almost all respects, race or gender may also have been considered....

All TEI hires. Hopefully they are all rejected. We certainly don’t need a puking drunk running the pentagon, a Russian tool running NSA or a QANON nut running the FBI….

I'd say the fact that they were too stupid to realize that calling for genocide against the Jews is against their schools policies.
Couple that with the fact that the school's donors obviously shared my opinion on this issue .
Pretty straight forward.

That was a bullsh!t charge. Biden had properly attributed those quotes many times before. They hammered him on the one or two times he forgot to do so.
Biden was an incompetent leader but not a plagiarist, just a sloppy speaker.
So censorship is good if you disagree with the person being censored...got it.
Just how would you accomplish the task? Round up anyone within some proximity of having heard some anti-Israeli statement and punish them? Three college students were shot for wearing Palestinian scarves...what happened to those calling for death to Muslims?
3rd time was the Charm

Censorship? OK - in some case for damn sure. Should you be allowed to call people n*ggers, sp!~cs, d@gos, wetb@cks, etc? on a college campus? I think not.
What do you think would happen at ANY university if you called for killing all black people? I'm sure you'd be fine with that. AmIRite Mr Free Speech?

Biden's problem was that he was a decent if mediocre senator with virtually no executive experience and damn little ability to lead. He failed us all.
You do not seem to understand the point...you have a crowd of a few hundred people...some not even students there. Someone shouts out kill the Jews...now what? Enforcing acceptable speech in an environment of both pro and anti-Israel protesters is just not a simple task....and the Anti-Palestinian protesters were not even mentioned in the hearings.
Kinda different if a person shouts in the face of a black person the "n" word and can be identified...I can think of a number of instances of a mob of whites shouting racist slogans and nobody was punished for that....
You ignore his ability to unite NATO nations in support of Ukraine.
