The vice president recently criticized athletes who use their platform at the Games to speak about politics, telling reporters on Tuesday, Feb. 11 that Olympians who do so "should expect some pushback."
"You're not there to pop off about politics," Vance said about the athletes competing in the 2026 Winter Games in Milan, as seen in interview footage obtained by USA Today. "You're there to play a sport. You're there to represent your country and hopefully win a medal."
"So when Olympic athletes enter the political arena, they should expect some pushback," Vance added.

"The way to bring the country together is not to show up in a foreign country and attack the president of the United States, but it's to play your sport and represent your country well," he further stated.
Donald Trump later took aim at Hess on Truth Social, lashing out to call the athlete a "real loser," while claiming it's "very hard to root for someone like [Hess]."
