Eileen Gu, the American-born Olympic skier who chose to represent Team China at the Winter Games, was honored at Chinese New Year celebrations in San Francisco on Saturday.

Gu was the grand marshal for the parade and expressed in an interview before the festivities what the honor meant to her.

"This is a special thing to be Grand Marshal, and be part of it," she told KGO-TV.

Disgusting! I am not sure if she is a dual citizen or not, but it is time to end the entire concept of dual citizenship. No one can be allegiant to more than one country.

How hard is it to find an American to celebrate Chinese New Year in San Francisco?

She can celebrate in Beijing instead.

Hard to think of San Francisco as an American city.

Could they not have asked California born and Oakland raised Alysa Liu, who won a gold medal representing the United States?

American-born Olympic skier sez,

For a Chinese New Year parade. Riight, okay well

real made in America takes "Grand Marshal" to a whole other level.

RE: Hard to think of San Francisco as an American city.

“Grant Avenue” song in movie
Flower Drum Song

Grant Avenue, San Francisco,
California, U.S.A.
Looks down from Chinatown
Over a foggy bay.

You travel there in a trolley,
In a trolley up you climb—
Dong dong! You’re in Hong Kong,
Having yourself a time.

You can eat, if you are in the mood,
Shark-fin soup, bean-cake fish.
The girl who serves you all your food
Is another tasty dish!

You know you
Can’t have a new way of living
Till you’re living all the way
On Grant Avenue.

Linda:
Where is that?

Liang:
San Francisco,
That’s where’s that!
California, U.S.A.

” I am not sure if she is a dual citizen or not, “

So China officially doesn’t allow dual citizenship... but she’d have to be Chinese citizen in order to compete for their Olympic team (that’s an Olympic rule), so logically she must not be a U.S. citizen. However the Chicoms are known for enforcing or not enforcing their rules as it suits them, so my guess would be that she hasn’t actually renounced her U.S. citizenship with the ChiComs quietly choosing to look the other way when it comes to her US citizenship

It’s funny. I used to drive down Geary street and I’d see protesters carrying their signs in front of the Chinese Consulate. If they’re so unpopular why would the SF higher ups want the halfy over there real one?

Gu is a handful.

Patton (1970) opening speech.

“When you put your hand into a bunch of goo that a moment before was your best friend’s face, you’ll know what to do”

She should NOT be a dual citizen. She’s an anchor baby at best. Send her back to her family’s homeland. The place she loves and that pays her $millions for her allegiance. She’s NOT an American!

Once upon a time SF was a VERY American city.
