This diplomatic boycott is intended, the sources say, as a way to respond to the Chinese government’s human rights abuses without impacting U.S. athletes.Are we supposed to believe the Chinese officials give a rat's ass?

So Carter 2.0 instead of making a real gesutre like Carter did about the 1980s Moscow Olympics, make a psuedo gestrue by saying he is not going. Right? They’re probably just relieved that they don’t have to errr…clean up after him.

On a semi-related note. My prediction is that China invades Taiwan during or immediately following the winter olympics

the White House is expected to announce that neither President Biden nor any other U.S. government officials will attend the Beijing Games. This diplomatic boycott is intended, the sources say, as a way to respond to the Chinese government’s human rights abuses without impacting U.S. athletes. Oh, brother! Brandon, no one gives an absolute sh!t about whether you or Kamala or anyone else in your regime goes to games. They only care about the athletes.
And we should send no athletes at all if males are allowed to compete against females.

Will Biden bite the hand that feeds him, and his family? I doubt it. Maybe a strongly worded letter, but no boycott. Besides, Biden isn’t running the show anyway.
