Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth went on a rant, attacking Democrats as “reckless” and “defeatist” as they blasted the Trump administration over getting the U.S. stuck in Iran with no clear exit plan.
The former Fox News host turned defense secretary was triggered by Democrats calling Donald Trump’s war a “quagmire.”
“My generation served in a quagmire in Iraq and Afghanistan, years and years of nebulous missions and utopian nation-building that led us to nothing,” Hegseth said. “The way you stain the troops when you tell them two months in, two months in, congressman. You should know better. Shame on you. Calling this a quagmire two months in.”
