Georgia senator Ossoff has taken shots at the president over the Iran war, affordability and “not taking his job seriously”

Rising Democratic star Senator Jon Ossoff has stepped up his feud with Donald Trump, after taunting the president over one of his aides. Ossoff made scathing remarks about the commander-in-chief during a rally in Atlanta Sunday, including a reference to traveling with his 35-year-old assistant Natalie Harp. Speaking to MSNOW’s The Briefing with Jen Psaki, the Georgia Democrat was asked why he made the Harp comments.

Families of sailors have claimed morale is low with some crew even jumping overboard. The Trump administration and the defense secretary Pete Hegseth, however, have sought to downplay the complaints. They signed up to defend the country, and the president surrounded by enablers in the West Wing is playing golf, is trading stock and is decorating his ballroom.

All while American families in Georgia and across the country pay more for just about everything as a direct result of his failed economic policy and his failed foreign policy.” Ossoff, who has been tipped as a potential contender for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination, spoke to Psaki the day after his attack on Trump in Atlanta. During that speech the Democrat claimed Trump would “rather travel with Natalie on the flying palace” than do the job of president. The White House and Trump hit back at Ossoff’s jabs Monday.
