On February 21, 2025, Caine was nominated by President Donald Trump to replace CQ Brown, whom Trump abruptly fired, as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. According to Trump, the two had previously met, with Caine telling Trump "I love you, sir. I think you’re great, sir. I’ll kill for you, sir." while wearing a MAGA hat.

That's pretty horrifying whether Trump is telling the truth or not.
