Lack of testosterone does not mean no balls, except in a developing child. Presumably his sack is already established. It might get saggier, but will not disappear because of Lupron. Stop with the drama.

True. That is known as chemical castration.

Plus chemical castration is temporary and ends after the therapy ends.

Lupron Depot causes a profound decrease in testosterone levels it is common to experience a decrease in your libido, impotence, and testicular atrophy. Long-term use can also lower bone mineral density.

Atrophy takes awhile, wouldn’t you agree? Quit the drama.

Oh, and sexondly, many surgeons insert small prosthetics inside the sac if they do an orchietomy for testicular cancer that has not spread, similar to the way a post-surgical breast cancer patient can receive an implant. If he needs cosmetic care, surely he will avail himself.

He is a check the box secretary of defense.
That was his only qualification.
And he doesn’t take that job seriously. This was not a car wreck, he knew this surgery was coming up and he did not prepare for his absence. What else has he not prepared for?

It's almost like these people are operating on islands of their own without any overriding executive authority.

Oh....right. President Addle-Pate.

I’d like to know how he proved, after the fact, that he was necessarily even in the country.

He was in the country, says who?

Just axin’.
