President Donald Trump criticized U.S. Olympic skier Hunter Hess as “a real loser” after Hess expressed “mixed emotions” about representing the U.S. at the Winter Olympics. Hess highlighted his complex feelings due to political issues in the U.S., emphasizing that wearing the flag doesn’t mean he supports everything happening in the country. Other athletes, like teammate Chris Lillis, also voiced concerns about the political climate, advocating for respect and rights for all citizens. Trump’s remarks came amid criticism of his administration’s immigration policies and handling of protests.
