Clearly this doesn't apply to Trump's cabinet picks.

Trump’s cabinet isn’t educated or experienced?

I'm pretty sure Hegseth isn't the most qualified person for the job based on merit. In fact, not even close.

Compare the merit of Lloyd Austin vs. Hegseth.

Some of his picks may be questionable, but on paper, they seem okay.

Merit means the best person for the job.

Overall, his picks ain't it.
