Navy Seals

March 3, 2026 by Guest Post 2 Comments

by Charles Sleath, Hamilton

I was just wondering again why Montana citizens are so fascinated with Navy Seals! Navy Seals are not trained to be desk jockeys. They are not trained to be gate guards. They are trained to eliminate (kill) bad guys. The bad guys think the Navy Seals are the bad guys. I was just wondering why the people of Montana elected two Navy Seals to represent them in Washington. Tim Sheehy said he wanted to go to Washington to “fight” the Democrats. What did that mean? Was he going there to physically assault them, or what? Doesn’t he know that his job is to help pass laws that will benefit Montana citizens, Democrats and Republicans! I wonder if he knows that means he needs the Democrats to help him pass legislation that benefits all the people of our state. I wonder why the people of Montana reelected Ryan Zinke? During his first term (2017 to 2019) he was the US Secretary of the Interior under Trump, but resigned after a series of ethics inquiries. He repeatedly violated ethical rules, then lied to investigators. I was just wondering!

    I think our fascination with Navy Seals is simply TRUST. Same with the People’s President, TRUST
