\u201cThe Daily Show\u201d host Michael Kosta on Wednesday blasted Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth<\/a>\u2019s chest-thumping rhetoric on Iran.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He then wondered why the former Fox News<\/a> personality sounded like a \u201ccheesy movie villain,\u201d before airing footage of the defense secretary\u2019s comments alongside clips of film villains delivering similarly over-the-top lines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
