The president didn't quite give his defense secretary his full confidence.
President Donald Trump didn’t quite give embattled Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth his full vote of confidence during an interview on Tuesday.
When asked by ABC’s Terry Moran if he had 100% confidence in Hegseth despite the Signal messaging scandal and other embarrassing reports, the president deflected.
“I don’t have a hundred percent confidence in anything, OK? Anything,” Trump said, calling it “a stupid question.”
Moran pushed back, saying it was an “important position,” but Trump wouldn’t budge.
“Only a liar would say, ‘I have a hundred percent confidence,’” Trump said. “I don’t have a hundred percent confidence that we’re gonna finish this interview.”
