Amber Glenn, a figure skater with Team USA in the Winter Olympics, claimed that it had been a “hard time” for the LGBTQ community under the Trump administration.
While speaking to reporters, Glenn claimed that the Trump administration’s policies weren’t “just affecting the queer community, but many other communities,” according to The Blast.
“It’s been a hard time for the community overall and this administration. It isn’t the first time that we’ve had to come together as a community and try and fight for our human rights,” Glenn told reporters. “And now, especially, it’s not just affecting the queer community, but many other communities.”
Glenn added that communities were “able to support each other in a way that they didn’t have to before.”
“I hope I can use my platform and my voice throughout these games to try and encourage people to stay strong in these hard times,” Glenn continued, adding that “politics affects us all.”

It might be a good thing if we don’t paint a whole group with a broad brush and discount them because of the actions of a few. This woman, and two male skiers are not the whole US Team.
We never fight for anything, we just say make it go away. I totally enjoyed Olympics in my younger years. Most people did.
“Lesbos always have to be drama queens and seek attention.”
Exactly right! The “hard times” have nothing to do with fear of physical harm or even ostracism. It’s because society is done with giving the affirmation of her lifestyle she apparently is desperate to obtain.
I have no interest in the Olympics other than men’s hockey. Haven’t watched a minute of the games this weekend. As an American, the Americans make it hard to root for them. By and large, the Olympics are an idea whose time has come and gone.
Radical homosexuals have become a big part of whatever the communists are trying to do to civilization. They are absolutely off their rockers.
these kids train so hard for 10 years, the focus the last year before the Olympics must be very stressful. Then they come and spit this sh*t out?
“Who watches them anyway?”
My wife, for one.
Yes examples please😂
These folks wanted to just be looked at “normally”. Trump is giving it to them. No special treatment- no DEI - and use your own bathroom. What a monster.
Because...???
Not the right kind of gay. Doesn’t put victimhood on the forefront.
Before we found out it was totally corrupt and these athletes ruined it.
Hope she enjoys supporting the Rainbow Mafia.
I will give her 1 point for not being tattooed head to toe, that is something in this day and age.
Other than that, no use for her. If I care to watch, Peggy Fleming videos are still around .
To Tell the Truth - Peggy Fleming, Olympic skater (Apr 25, 1966)
That was a different time, look at the freak show they run today .
“””she made the comment to me that she and her wife couldn’t come to any reunions because they were scared to come.”””
Or...it’s more likely that nobody would care and her “wife” is butt ugly.
A homosexual figure skater, now there’s something you don’t see every day.
I was shocked to find out the figure skaters are mostly gay.
SHOCKED!!!!!
As if ice skaters haven’t always been homosexual.
If it’s hard times how did she get on the team ? LOL
