Surely everyone knows this but just in case someone isn’t following US politics: Hegseth is full of shit and nothing he says should be trusted even the tiniest bit. It’s all propaganda, lies or, at the absolute best, half-truths. This administration has absolutely no qualms about lying to reporters, the country, and even Trump himself, who is getting at best partial information and very likely completely false information.
Even that is too much for his current mental capacity. Briefings now consist entirely of Hegseth and Vance going FWOOOSHHH and KABLOOEY with their mouths while running around the oval office with their arms spread open, pretending to be warplanes.

It’s been known since 2016 that Trump does not listen to briefings. He needs pictures and videos to understand anything.
His understanding of this conflict comes almost completely from footage of airstrikes. Watching stuff (and people) blow up.

Trump’s advisers look like that lady with everything going into the square hole.
