The Orange Jackass saw the name "Hunter" and reflectively went on the attack.
I am honestly surprised he didn't mix up hunter Hess and hunter biden
Be probably did.
The correct response any respectable self-respecting president would have made to the athlete's comments: "The man is American. In America we say what we want, that's what makes America great. He doesn't agree with me. That's okay too, disagreement is an American tradition. I have my job and he has his- and I wish him the best of luck in doing his. Make us proud Hunter!"
But no, we have "he's a loser." Yes Dumbald, the Olympian is a loser. Whatever you say...
Yeah... You, an Internet rando sound immensely more presidential than our actual president. This is why he had mixed feelings, the situation is legitimately embarrassing and shameful.
Beating mouldy bins with a hammer sounds more presidential than that fuck.
It's sad that our altheletes are better at speaking about politics than our president.
Yeah, I was just coming to say his response shows way more tact and diplomacy than I could possibly muster in his shoes, and certainly more than Trump deserves.
Our athletes are better at speaking about politics than the so called "opposition" party
Why respond to what a human trafficking pedofile has to say
This is what I'm saying. Who gives a fuck what felon and a pedophile thinks?
Thanks for not posting anywhere what his response was.
On Monday, Hess appeared to respond in a social media post, without mentioning Trump by name.
“I love my country,” Hess began, adding, “there is so much that is great about America.”
“[B]ut there are always things that could be better,” Hess went on. “One of the many things that makes this country so amazing is that we have the right and the freedom to point that out.”
He continued:
"The best part of the Olympics is that it brings people together, and when so many of us are divided we need that more than ever. I cannot wait to represent Team USA next week when I compete."
While he doesn't have a FIFA peace prize to his name, I feel Hess's medals and awards are decent evidence that he's not a loser.
America's response to Donvict should be:
Quiet, piggy!
Headline: Olympic Skier Hunter Hess...
My brain: Hess, Hunter of Olympic Skiers
The James Bond-ish sniper image I got in my head after this comment made my night. Lol
HA! Shit is wild when they're on the bobsled track.
An amalgam of biathlon pursuit, ski jumping and bobsled; I'd pay to see that.
See and I just thought Hess had to hunt while on skis
The most dangerous game.
I'd like to see the orange jackass ski jump.
I think most people would be fine with any kind of jump from significant height.
Hell, I'd like to see him pay his own fucking way to the Olympics. The athletes did.
(The US does not subsidize its Olympic teams or athletes in general, they have to raise their own money or get some partial amount from a big donation.)
