These Athletes Are Getting Paid to Shame Their Own Country at the Olympics

A British athlete has joined the growing list of highly-paid losers to attack the Trump administration for their dedication to remove dangerous criminals from the United States. This one took things multiple steps further by urinating “f**k ICE” into the snow.

Gus Kenworthy, an British-American skier who formerly represented the States before betraying his country to represent the Brits, was the culprit behind the latest performative demonstration. He also encouraged his followers to reach out to their senators to complain about ICE, going as far to provide them with a script to get the message across.

Kenworthy joined a number of other skiers, who apparently have nothing better to do than to slam the country that platforms them in these competitions, in speaking out against deporting the rapists, murders, and drug traffickers who crossed into our country illegally.

A number of other athletes have also spoken out against their country, with the Miracle on Ice legend Mike Eruzione bashing them for choosing to personally represent themselves or their families rather than the United States. Eruzione did go on to delete the post, however.

The U.S. is paying out $37,500 per gold medal, so keep in mind how much these people could be making while bashing the country cutting them thousands in checks. The amounts they're making in endorsement deals and media hits can't be calculated, but it is all built off of the back of the American flag and those who want to watch their countrymen excel. Where is the gratitude for that? Why is it impossible to be the least bit diplomatic and to show some decorum when representing your country?

Only in the United States can you invest millions into developing these athletes, promote them as heroes to the nation's children, and care for their every need, just to have them turn around and trash the very people who formed them for a few more minutes of air time on European televisions.
