‘A Real Loser’: Trump Slams Olympic Skier Hunter Hess Over His ‘Mixed Emotions’ On Representing Team USA

President Donald Trump on Sunday attacked American skier Hunter Hess after the freestyle skier shared his “mixed emotions” on representing Team USA at this year’s Winter Olympics.

“US Olympic Skier, Hunter Hess, a real Loser, says he doesn’t represent his Country in the current Winter Olympics,” wrote Trump in a post to his Truth Social platform.

“If that’s the case, he shouldn’t have tried out for the Team, and it’s too bad he’s on it. Very hard to root for someone like this. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

Trump’s meltdown comes just days after Hess shared his conflicted feelings on competing for his home country.

“It’s a little hard. There’s obviously a lot going on that I’m not the biggest fan of, and I think a lot of people aren’t,” said Hess, who is representing America in his first Winter Olympics this year.

“I think for me, it’s more I’m representing my friends and family back home, the people that represented it before me, all the things that I believe are good about the U.S.”

Other American athletes have opened up about their emotions as they represent the States at the Milan Cortina Games.

Freestyle skier Chris Lillis, who won gold at the 2022 games, shared that he’s proud to compete for his country, but he’s “heartbroken” over immigration crackdowns.

Team USA women’s hockey player Kelly Pannek, who is from the Minneapolis area, also called out “unnecessary and just horrifying” immigration enforcement just one day after the deadly shooting of Alex Pretti.

“It’s obviously really heavy,” said Pannek, per NPR. “What I’m most proud to represent is the tens of thousands of people that show up on some of the coldest days of the year to stand and fight for what they believe in.”

The Trump administration didn’t win gold from fans at the Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony in Milan on Friday.

Vice President JD Vance, who attended the ceremony with his wife, Usha, was met with a wave of boos and jeers at San Siro Stadium.

In response to the cold reception, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One that he didn’t see the moment, noting that Vance was “in a foreign country, in all fairness” before claiming that his veep “doesn’t get booed in this country.” (Note: Vance has been booed across the U.S.)
