Guess Pete Hegseth Thinks Dead American Troops Are Suckers And Losers Too


Change our mind.

https://www.wonkette.com/p/guess-pete-hegseth-thinks-dead-american



We discussed this yesterday, but it deserves another post. If Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth and Marco Rubio and Benjamin Netanyahu are going to have American troops’ blood on their hands, the people need to know exactly how it got there.


Yesterday, during Hegseth’s masturbating white nationalist teenager press conference, he got his back up at the journalists there, accusing them of reporting on American troop deaths in Iran only to make Donald Trump look bad. As if it doesn’t make Trump look bad enough that a week ago, if Trump had just fucked off and played golf instead of starting a pointless war nobody wants, six American troops would be alive today.

“[W]hen a few drones get through or tragic things happen, it’s front-page news,” Hegseth whined. “I get it, the press only wants to make the president look bad — but try for once to report the reality.”

Yeah, Fox News Daddy Issues little boy, we are. Six American troops have died (so far) to distract from the Trump Epstein Child Rape Files. If there are other reasons for this stupid war, we don’t know them, because the Trump regime doesn’t know them. We won’t be shocked to learn that incompetence, negligence and/or a complete lack of oversight/planning played a big role in their deaths.

Really is a sick fuck. He is absolutely orgasmic describing how the US is kicking the enemy while down. This is disgusting.
