United States President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth “gets an A plus, plus, plus” for his defense against Thomas Massie, a Republican and the House Representative from Kentucky’s 45th district, who has called for Hegseth’s impeachment.
In a Truth Social post, Trump dismissed Massie as “disgruntled, angry, defeated,” and a “total loser.”
Trump’s comments came just after Hegseth completed his press conference, during which he labeled the impeachment attempt “a political spectacle” and a “farce.” He also insisted that the department’s actions enjoy “ton of support” in Congress.
