It isn't merely that these two, and their colleagues, lack depth, it's that they are committed to a set of behavioral 'values' (sic) that are the antithesis of the American ethos and the basic principles of a civil society. In some respects, the personification of it all is to be found in the office of the Deputy Chief of Staff, Stephen Miller -- the Joseph Goebbels-Alfred Rosenberg-Grigori Rasputin, the avatar of the darkness of MAGAism.

Trump has no intellectual depth and Hedgseth is an ex-major lecturing general officers who could be his father.

I thought it was supposed to be "shaven" to fit the motif... silly me.
