Skier Gus Kenworthy blasts Ivanka Trump's appearance at Olympics closing ceremony

[TexasTowelie]

American freestyle skier Gus Kenworthy wants to know what Ivanka Trump is doing at the closing ceremony of the Pyeongchang Games.

Kenworthy tweeted a photo of his teammates Sunday and said: "So proud of all these people! Everybody here has worked so hard to make it to the Olympics and have the opportunity to walk in the closing ceremony! Well... Everyone except Ivanka."

He then used an abbreviated profanity in asking why she was there.

The elder daughter of U.S. President Donald Trump is watching the closing ceremony in the same box as South Korean President Moon Jae-In and top North Korean official Kim Yong Chol. She has said the purpose of her visit is to advocate maximum pressure on North Korea to halt its nuclear program.

Kenworthy earlier made headlines when he shared a televised kiss with his boyfriend after his Olympic run.

1. "She has said the purpose of her visit ...

... is to advocate maximum pressure on North Korea to halt its nuclear program."

Of course. Who better to handle such a mission than the brainless daughter of an equally brainless "pResident"?

Jesus Hussein Christ. This entire "pResidency" is like a bad sit-com - minus the laughs.

7. She's checking to see if the Koreas have extradition treaties with the United States...

...Word is Jarvanka* may be looking for a new "neighborhood."

2. So, since she's the new ambassador to NK, she gets the blame for anything that goes wrong....

3. Didn't...

Didn't she say she wants to stay out of politics?? I thought she said she wanted to be a non-political first daughter!

Princess Ivanka Tsar-iena of tr-dumpville.

5. How does her presence in SK put any pressure on NK?
