American skater Amber Glenn and skier Eileen Gu have faced backlash for prioritizing their personal political views over representing the United States. This reflects a broader sentiment among Americans who believe that the Olympics should unite the nation rather than serve as a platform for political grievances, with many athletes and citizens advocating for a return to traditional values of patriotism and unity at international sporting events.
