After Opening Ceremony Reaction, JD Vance Sends Message to US Olympians

JD Vance has addressed Team USA athletes after he and his wife, Usha, were met with boos during the Winter Olympics opening ceremony in Milan, where they attended to support American competitors. The reaction was noticeable, with commentators acknowledging the mixed crowd response. Speaking afterward on CNN, the vice president urged athletes to focus on sport rather than politics. “You’re there to represent your country and hopefully win a medal,” Vance said. “You’re not there to get involved in politics.”
