The question hanging over the Pentagon chief's future in January isn't whether he'll stay, but what happens next. Trump made it clear he wants people to know how Sec. Hegseth feels about them, stating "He loves you and he protects you." He also described the work of the Pentagon chief as a FANTASTIC job and indicated a determination to retain him. Even with that stance, the uncertainty remains about the status come January.
