21. Yes. They ARE sickening and disgusting.

But the MAGATS do this with everything, from sports to who plays iconic roles in movies - they turn it into a (often hate based) culture war.

For example, when they and traitor fucks like Donald Trump actually CHEERED the US Women's World Cup soccer loss.

CHEERED a US loss!! You sorry mfks.

And unfortunately for Clark, who (like Reese and other star athletes) DESERVES her props,

those who support her for reasons FAR less honourable, bring an odious and venomous element to the sport. Like they do with EVERYTHING.

Which may very well be why the US Women's Basketball Olympic Committee wants no part of it.
