Weird, and undignified. Other countries must think, 'this is a fucked up country that hates itself.'

So disrespectful! If she don't enjoy the free country of America. Pls leave

How grown up

Millions of people sacrificed their lives to their country.

Then why is he still allowed to be there ? Disrespectful person.

She should be removed from the Olympic. If you dont respect your country you should not be competing. Period.

Might it be time for 'disrespect' to be equally reciprocated..? RepresentWithRespect
