(3,781 posts)about t he immediately calls them losers, no talent, etc., etc? Says a lot about what a mean, jealous person he is.
Will not be surprised if Mr. Hess is suddenly booted off the team for...reasons...that will conviently "just" be discovered.

He realized at a young age that truth can be malleable and its easier to just keep lying to get what he wants.

Every week we send out an updated list of topics and new bills in the state or in Congress that they might want to call our reps about. Each weeks issue starts with a quote.

1/3 of the White House.
Justice matters.

Botany
(76,942 posts)to one of the mangers @ the pool and he told me that just making the U.S. team was an
honor because only 2 people can make the team. Mr. Hess is what Trump could never be
and that is being legitimately tall, athletic, good looking, and smart.

I really dont care what Cheeto says.
Hess speaks for me.
AverageOldGuy
(3,658 posts)Will Trump invite US Olympians who won medals to come to the White House for a meal of Big Macs and fries?
How many will accept?
How many will tell him to fuck off?

Grim Chieftain
(1,541 posts)and yet, here he is giving me another reason. He is the most despicable "person" to ever walk the earth. Hunter Hess has more honor, dignity and ethics in a nanosecond than the orange pedophile has had in his entire pathetic lifetime.

These athletes are competing to make America look better than the hell hole chump has made us.
I will not accept him getting a second of shine for others hard work.
If our Bill of Rights and Constitution bother him so much, it's he that should be leaving.
If there is anyone who doesn't represent America, it's chump!

But Honestly, when this pResident disses anyone, my esteem for that person rises simultaneously. It's like awarding them a medal for humanity. For being decent. That's pretty good IMO.

(25,554 posts)Solid W for Hess here, rest of the team with him scores too. If Hess medals in the half pipe, F47's gonna look even stupider. The way this has gone lately, we really could see sub-30 polling by March. I hope Mr. Hess has no difficulty returning afterward; F47 has proven petty enough to exact personal revenge for his own shortcomings on far lesser matters, which gives me some concern.
Personally, I'm looking forward to watching the freestyle skiing competitions this week, though I'm unlikely to catch them live.
