JD Vance wants U.S. Olympians to eschew their First Amendment rights and stop being mean about his boss by “popping off” about politics.
Standing before the traveling press corps in Azerbaijan on Wednesday, the vice president offered some unsolicited advice to American athletes representing the country at the Winter Olympics in Italy.
“Yes, you’re going to have some Olympic athletes who pop off about politics. I feel like that happens every Olympics. My advice to them would be to try to bring the country together. And when you’re representing the country, you’re representing Democrats and Republicans, you’re there to play a sport and you’re there to represent your country and hopefully win a medal. You’re not there to pop off about politics,” he said.
