Leftists are so obsessive about the Trump collusion hoax that they’re seeing ‘connections’ in probably the most ridiculous of locations, together with the selection of tie that Conflict Secretary Pete Hegseth wore yesterday.

This assembly additionally got here after Trump repeatedly steered that he would offer Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine for offensive functions by promoting them to NATO.
Nevertheless, liberals had been significantly triggered by Hegseth’s alternative of clothes. The Conflict Secretary determined to put on a purple, white, and blue tie to the assembly, the colours of the U.S. flag and a handful of different nations, together with Russia.
Naturally, leftists promptly assumed Hegseth was honoring Russia and trolling Zelensky to his face.
