Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn on Wednesday criticized President Trump, saying she doesn't believe he represents the country well.
"I want to represent our country well. I don't think that there are a lot of people currently in our government that do that," Vonn told CNN.
She added that she hopes "to represent the people of the United States, not the president" at the upcoming Winter Olympics.

BTW, she was never his wife. That was Elin Nordegren.
I’ll be happy to hold the football while he does it!
White privelidge has kept people of color out of the winter games. Ever take a brother to a ski slope?
She, like the NFL players taking a knee, does not realize she is diminishing her fan base not strengthening it with dumb a$$ statements like she's making.
“Know-nothings like her sure think they have it all figured out, don’t they?”
Dunning–Kruger effect.
Open mouth; insert entire ski. Dumb. All respect for her is now GONE.
Celeb idiots are protected and coddled: they’re never challenged on the rationale behind their statements - it would expose how low IQ they are.
Feeling washed up?
No way they can resist the chance to spite their country in front of a worldwide audience.
And unlike NFL fans who respond with boos and boycotts, the world audience will eat it up.
-so how did that thing with tiger woods turn out?
-I hope your ski breaks!
-here's to last place for ya
well don’t go, blow the chance you had in the name of nothing.
shamed is a two way street
I don’t want you at the ski events bitch.
Interesting take she’s got on the situation. For the first time in 15 years we have a president all countries respect. All may not love him, and all may not admit it, but they
do respect him.
She crashed in the downhill last weekend at Lake Louise but skied the Super G the following day..........
I wish she hadn't said what she said since she's arguably the best women's skier ever to put on skis and the only reason I watch the world cup events.....
As a side note, 17-year-old German skier Max Burkhart has died following a crash during downhill competition in the NorAm speed races in Lake Louise.
Liberals always think that the United States and it’s government are synonymous. They are not. The United States of America encompasses the entire citizenry, the culture and everything, and all the institutions created by The People.
Of course the Liberals HATE the culture & history of the USA with a white-hot passion, so perhaps this explains why ‘they don’t go there’.
ROTF! NBC deserves this. Paging affiliates...
Hate it when I have reason to root against our athletes......
Geez, here we go again.
Ain’t it funny how it’s not until AFTER an actor/athlete has made millions, that they start shooting their mouths off about politics?
To hell with you, Lindsey.
So...she’s NOT going to the winter Olympics?
