    For as much as trump used to say “straight out of central casting” that really is how he fills important spots.

    It’s all about the optics, because he doesn’t understand what the jobs actually are.

    So for Hegsworth, he needs to constantly look “camera ready” he’s getting TV grade makeup every day, likely a couple touchups too. Because Trump knows him from Faux news, and that’s how he expects him to look.

    Then the “workout pics” are almost assuredly being shown to trump and without a hint of irony being told “here’s Pete “working” with the troops” and in Trump’s mind that’s what his job is.

    So…

    If they actually got rid of those two things, it will make it more likely trump gets rid of Pete. Because it’s destroying the image that Pete was picked for.
