While most Americans are cheering on Team USA at the Olympics, one ungrateful athlete decided to use the world's biggest stage to trash the very country he's supposed to represent. Freestyle skier Hunter Hess couldn't resist taking a cheap shot at President Trump's efforts to secure our border and clean up the illegal immigration disaster left behind by the Biden regime.

In comments that have patriotic Americans shaking their heads, Hess whined that it was "a little hard" to represent America because of Trump's mass deportation operations targeting illegal aliens. Apparently, enforcing immigration laws that have been on the books for decades is just too much for this snowflake to handle.

President Trump, never one to let America-bashing slide, delivered some ice-cold reality to the pouty Olympian. The President reminded Americans exactly what's at stake when we have citizens more concerned with virtue signaling than standing up for their own country.

"We have athletes who should be proud to wear the red, white, and blue, not complaining about making America safe again," sources close to the administration revealed Trump saying.

Here's what Hess apparently doesn't understand: Trump isn't creating a crisis—he's cleaning up one. The previous administration turned our border into Swiss cheese, allowing millions of illegal aliens to pour into American communities. Now that we finally have a President willing to enforce the law and protect American citizens, suddenly that's controversial?

Where Are His Priorities?

Think about this for a moment, Patriots. This athlete has been given the incredible honor of representing 330 million Americans on the world's biggest stage. Instead of focusing on bringing home gold for Team USA, he's worried about illegal aliens who shouldn't even be here in the first place.

Meanwhile, American families are dealing with the real consequences of decades of failed immigration policy—from overwhelmed schools and hospitals to communities torn apart by crime and drugs flowing across our once-porous border.

Maybe Hess should spend less time complaining and more time remembering that without America's investment in Olympic programs and the opportunities this great nation provided him, he wouldn't even be on those slopes. Just a thought.

If you're going to represent America on the world stage, then REPRESENT AMERICA! Don't bite the hand that feeds you and gave you the opportunity to compete. Trump is absolutely right to call this out.

Exactly! My son served two tours overseas defending the flag she's disrespecting. Show some gratitude!

What did she actually say though? The article mentions she slammed America but I want to know the exact quote before I judge. Either way, timing seems pretty poor if you're wearing USA on your uniform.
