President Donald Trump on Tuesday gave Secretary of War Pete Hegseth an “A+++” for his press conference defending the Iran war amid an impeachment effort from Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky.Massie lost his primary earlier this year to a Trump-backed challenger. He has been a vocal critic of the Iran war and has brought impeachment articles against Hegseth for allegedly using the military without proper authorization from Congress. Hegseth defended himself in a Tuesday morning press conference.
“Pete Hegseth gets an “A” PLUS, PLUS, PLUS for his defense against a disgruntled, angry, defeated, former Congressman, Thomas Massie, a TOTAL LOSER!” Trump posted on Truth Social.
During the press conference, Hegseth called Massie’s effort a “farce” and a “stunt” and said he was overseeing lawful operations.
