Amber Glenn: 'Hard Time' For LGBTQ Community Under Trump Admin
Breitbart ^ | 7 Feb 2026 | Elizabeth Weibel

Posted on 02/08/2026 7:58:09 AM PST by MinorityRepublican

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.”

The Blast reported that Glenn’s words “drew praise online, with many fans applauding her decision to speak out and use her Olympic platform to amplify issues affecting LGBTQ+ communities and beyond.”:

‘Why do liberals think only of their genitals??’

Because they’re emotionally stunted.

The only reason they will get a medal is because the Russians aren’t there.

By the way, when was the last time we saw women who “trans-ed” to men competing in men’s sports? Right, never. Why?

More pompous virtue signaling from a generational cohort hell bent on committing demographic suicide.

The very same people dissing all the Olympic team, even the ones proudly representing our country, will have their faces planted in front of the biggest scam of woke happening tonight, stuffing their faces with high fat snacks and beer, to watch a few minutes of ball played by many who would would turn their backs on the National Anthem, a lot of crappy commercials that they have made into some great spectacle, and watching a woke gay creep called Bad Bunny wabbit. Whew, did I cover it all? /sarc

But we do have a puppy bowl and an alternative to the Bunny guy if you have to convince yourself keeps you from being a total wokeness tolerator because its football, well.. kinda. /sarc again

Hilarious.

Maybe he will air the Melania movie instead for his guests at Mar-a-Lago.

Nah, his buddy, Kid Rock is hosting the TP show, so that is what he will watch.

I could have guessed this.

Her skating routines all have a distinct “I’m all that/girl boss” flavor to them.
