Olympic gold medal skier Lindsey Vonn says she’ll represent the United States, but not President Trump, when she returns to the Winter Games in February.
The Olympic gold medalist told CNN on Wednesday that she was representing the people of the United States, not Trump, at the upcoming Winter Olympics in South Korea. She added that she would not visit the White House if she won.
“I hope to represent the people of the United States, not the President.”

The way she acted about Donald Trump did not sit well with “Fox & Friends” hosts.
Pete Hegseth said competing in the Olympics is “like wearing the flag in combat, in battle. It’s a team. You’re saying, ‘Well, no. It’s just we’re going to write off our president.’”
Then Earhardt replied with the coldest cut of all about Vonn: “Very un-American.”
