Skiing star Lindsey Vonn suffered a back injury during a World Cup super-G race in Switzerland Saturday, two days after she criticized President Donald Trump in an interview about next year's Winter Olympics.

Vonn crossed the finish line in obvious distress, almost one second behind the then-leader, and slumped to the snow. ....

Vonn stayed in the finish house to be treated, and one hour later limped slowly into a waiting car to be driven from the St. Moritz course. ....

Vonn tweeted that she had suffered an "acute facet (spinal joint) dysfunction"

She’s just looking for an excuse, a way out of the mess she’s gotten herself into.

So, she got “conveniently” got hurt in order to find an excuse to not compete and be done with the Olympics.

She won’t be missed.

Sorry that you feel so much cuckitude. For myself I suffer from an overwhelming feeling of schadenfreude!

Shed no tears for virtue signaling assholes for they would destroy you for daring to think and live free and would feel good while doing it.

Here is the thing. After her outburst I bet if the president if asked would have said she should be doing this for herself and her Country!

So America should allow athletes to compete for America after they trash talk our President? I don’t think so. Competing for America is an honor and a privilege.

If the American team can’t go due to safety concerns, she would probably have been the first to whine.

Your "tongue" is a totalitarian embarrassment to FR and any other American.

That's mighty bold talk.

I'm an American and his tongue doesn't embarrass me.

You kinda do, though.

She’s virtue signaling her moral superiority and patting herself on the back for her misguided compassion for the enemy.

What a squish you are.

I just can't stand candyasses anymore, especially on FR.

Sick of it. Either fight the socialist bastards, or cut bait!

LOL!

Obviously you understand logic.

I really hate this headline for that reason.

It subtly implies that Trump somehow was related to the injury.

Because "b" happened after "a" does not mean that "a" *caused* "b".

I don't think Trump ever uttered a word about the Olympics, but blabbermouth Vonn sure did.
