For a country whom just had their Attorney General justify the president being a pedophile because the Dow is up slightly you'd think they'd be appluading Eileen for getting paid.

who will ~~read~~ hear

This is such an easy indicator of how stupid someone is. If they are only posting videos or clearly didn't read an article past the headline, you know which side they're on.

“So, I’m going to root for American athletes, and I think part of that is people who identify themselves as Americans. That’s who I’m rooting for this Olympics.”

So he's saying you can choose how to identify...?

I'm not a JD fan but I don't really quite understand how and why she is representing China. She is Chinese American yes but per Olympic rules, she has to have citizenship in the country she is representing but it doesnt seem like she does?? China does not permit dual citizenship?

Whats to stop other countries then from bribing other top athletes to represent them?

Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title.

If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
