‘If I had to do it all over again, I would have had two flags’

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.”:

I hope the phony U.S. Illegal Alien Olympic team gets its clocks cleaned. Those people aren’t Americans.
They didn’t have to answer the question because it was bait by the media. They are not asking this kind of question to other countries.
Homosexuals stink on ice. The stench is always there and cannot be hid.
How? Because she says so?
It would possibly humble these ingrate degenerates to lose every event they enter. Seek help for your mental illness!
Too bad she wasn’t iced out by a trannie pretending to be a woman. She’d be singing a different tune.
How about just these three? These three do not represent the whole US team.
Most are there competing proudly.
You hate for all of them is out of order.
Exactly what “Hard Time” is she referring to? (no pun intended)
How are aberrant paraphilias “ human rights “?
🤔
This ungrateful, anti-American c*nt needs to be sent home for spewing this queer drivel.
LGBTQers don’t seem to be able to keep their private lives in their pants but have some kind of incessant need to waive their parts and twisted views into the public eye.
Never seen a group act so silly when given a microphone
Not sure how she could tolerate marching behind an American flag at the opening ceremony.
Maybe those proudly representing America should speak up and tell the maggots to shut up. I know if I were there, that’s what I would do. Probably whip some butt too. The hate filled competitors are not Americans. I have “very mixed emotions” that they are posing as Americans. They should be sent home if they want to represent the illegal alien invaders stealing billions from the American taxpayers.
Why do liberals think only of their genitals??
Classless nerd should never have been accepted to represent the USA.
Really? Scott Bessant is on TV constantly, and is highly esteemed as treasury secretary! It’s just that these leftists have to flaunt their LGBT status, and want us to accept it, of course.
Scott Bessent disagrees.
Because homosexuals have always been so discriminated against in US ice skating.
Why did this only come up now?! Because NOW is when they are getting the attention of the press. That’s the reason these people are on the team, it’s not about the sport at all. Ignore them. If I was the coach I would have gotten rid of them or resigned.
