Uncertainty looms over Trump’s defence secretary pick Pete Hegseth

Donald Trump's embattled nominee for defence secretary says he still has the president-elect's backing after reports suggested his nomination may be in jeopardy over allegations of misconduct.
 
Trump is considering replacing Pete Hegseth with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis after Hegseth's nomination came under intense scrutiny.
 
Since Trump nominated the former Fox News host, questions about Hegseth's qualifications have been raised and a historical sexual assault allegation has surfaced.
 
Hegseth has denied any wrongdoing, and was never arrested or charged.
