There's been a lot of discussion about his views on women in the military. Our own distinguished senator, Tammy Duckworth is the most preeminent example of the capacity of women to serve effectively and bravely. Mr. Hegseth has repudiated his well-founded and long-standing view that he's against women in the military. Frankly, it sounds to me like a nomination eve consideration. I'm speaking, of course, to you, Mr. President. I really respect the military service that you've provided to our country. (01:25–01:56)
