After Hess, 27, said at a news conference earlier this month that competing for the U.S. “brings up mixed emotions,” Trump complained about the “total loser” on social media.
“Very hard to root for someone like this,” the 79-year-old posted on Truth Social, adding that it was “too bad” Hess was on the U.S. team. MAGA outrage promptly followed.
