Gus Kenworthy Takes Parting Shots at Trump Administration

Gay U.S. freeskier Gus Kenworthy, who has been outspoken against Donald Trump and Mike Pence throughout this year's Winter Olympics, took some parting shots at the administration at the close of the games in PyeongChang, South Korea.

He sent one tweet today riffing on Russia's win over Germany for the gold medal in men's ice hockey:

Then he commented on the presence of Trump's daughter and adviser Ivanka at the closing ceremony:

Kenworthy, one of the first out U.S. competitors in the winter games, failed to win a medal but made history by kissing his boyfriend, Matt Wilkas, on national television. He also expressed "no patience" with Trump and said, like out figure skater Adam Rippon, that he won't go to a White House reception for American Olympians. And he joked that there was an upside to breaking his thumb during the Olympics - it gave him an excuse not to shake the hand of Pence, who led the U.S. delegation to PyeongChang.
