Trader consensus leans heavily against Pete Hegseth exiting as Secretary of Defense by June 30, driven by President Trump's unwavering public support and the GOP's Senate majority, which advanced his nomination through the Armed Services Committee despite scrutiny over past personal allegations including drinking, sexual misconduct claims, and a military academy scandal. Recent confirmation hearings highlighted concerns from senators like Susan Collins on his Fox News background and tattoos, but no bipartisan blockade formed, with key Republicans like Roger Wicker backing him. Media reports on vetting texts from his ex-wife failed to force withdrawal, signaling likely floor vote approval soon after inauguration, stabilizing his tenure odds through mid-year.
