Italy should kick them out. Even if that means Trump withdraws the U.S. athletes in petty revenge.
Kick the US out. Let the athletes compete under the Olympic flag like every other time countries do dumb shit.
The athletes should not be punished for Trump's decisions that they have zero control over. Competing at a peak Olympic level is extremely time sensitive, often only one or two Olympics total.
How could Trump withdraw US athletes? The USOPC has nothing to do with the federal government
I'm curious if this is an opportunity for American Olympians to give ICE the finger.
You know, like when Jesse Owens gave lil Hitler a fuck you.
What the fuck are HSI even supposed to do in Italy? Is this like the KGB minders watching to make sure their athletes don't defect?
Or stop them from coming back if they're not the right shade.
Learning about fascism from the source.
Maybe they want to harass the US olympians
Precisely
Deport them!
