美国奥运选手亨特·赫斯表示”美国有很多伟大之处，但总有可以改进的地方”，此前一天，总统特朗普因赫斯上周在回答记者提问时称自己对代表美国参加冬奥会”感受复杂”而对其进行抨击。
“我爱我的祖国，”自由式滑雪运动员赫斯在周一的社交媒体帖子中说道，”美国有很多伟大之处，但总有可以改进的地方。这个国家之所以如此令人惊叹，其中一个原因就是我们有权和自由指出这些不足。
“奥运会最棒的地方在于它能让人们团结在一起，当我们许多人意见分歧时，我们比以往任何时候都更需要这种团结，”赫斯表示，”我迫不及待地想下周代表美国队参赛。感谢大家的支持。”

美国单板滑雪运动员在周一被记者问及是否愿意回应特朗普称赫斯为”真正的失败者”或他们对代表美国队参赛的感受时也发表了看法。
比伊·金表示她认为”美国现在有很多不同的观点。显然，我们分歧很大。我个人非常自豪能代表美国。也就是说，我认为多样性是我们成为一个非常强大国家并使我们如此特别的原因。”
麦迪·马斯特罗表示她为代表美国感到自豪，但她”也对国内发生的事情感到难过。这真的很艰难。我觉得我们不能视而不见。但同时，我代表的是一个有着与我相同价值观的国家，即善良和同情心。而且我们会在不公时刻团结起来。”
“我的父母是移民，这件事确实让我感同身受，”两届奥运金牌得主克洛伊·金说，”我认为在这样的时刻，我们团结起来并为彼此、为所有正在发生的事情挺身而出真的很重要。我真的很自豪能代表美国。美国给了我和我的家人很多机会。但我也认为我们有权表达对正在发生的事情的看法。我认为我们需要以爱和同情心为先导。我希望看到更多这样的情况。”

国际奥委会发言人马克·亚当斯周一告诉记者，他”不会参与讨论”特朗普的言论。
亚当斯说：”我不会评论美国总统的言论，对任何其他国家元首的言论也不会评论。”
当被问及特朗普评论后赫斯是否需要更多保护时，亚当斯拒绝公开讨论安全问题。
据美联社报道，美国奥委会和残奥会委员会周日表示，他们意识到针对运动员的有害信息日益增多，并正在尽最大努力向执法部门报告可信威胁并删除有害内容。
“我认为说出我们的感受、捍卫我们的信仰并反对不公很重要，我很自豪看到其他运动员也这样做，”为英国队参加2026年冬奥会的滑雪选手格斯·肯沃西周日晚在社交媒体视频中说道。
上周，拥有英美双重国籍、曾代表美国队参赛的肯沃西在社交媒体上发布了一张用尿液在雪地上写下的谴责美国移民和海关执法局的露骨信息照片。
“我只是想提醒大家，你可以爱美国并为自己是美国人而自豪——我就是——同时仍然认为它可以变得更好，仍然认为这个国家可以进步，”肯沃西说，”而且仅仅因为你爱美国并不意味着你要支持这个政府并支持他们的政治和立法以及他们支持的事情。因为我不支持。我不支持移民和海关执法局，我认为它绝对是邪恶、糟糕和可怕的。”
上周，美国队自由式滑雪运动员克里斯·利利斯在被问及国内政治问题时告诉记者，他”对美国发生的事情感到心碎”，并表示”作为一个国家，我们需要专注于尊重每个人的权利，并确保我们以爱和尊重对待我们的公民以及其他人。”
周日晚些时候，他在社交媒体上发布了一段自己尝试滑雪道时摔倒的视频。
“给所有讨厌我的人，这是我摔倒的样子，希望能让你们兴奋起来，”标题写道，”别担心，我很坚强。”
利兹大学体育外交副教授J.西蒙·罗夫告诉CBS新闻：”自古以来，运动员就具有政治色彩并被政治化。”
罗夫提到1968年墨西哥奥运会上，美国田径奖牌得主汤米·史密斯和约翰·卡洛斯在领奖台上举起拳头抗议，这只是运动员利用自己的地位就政治问题发声的众多例子之一。
“这次冬奥会中值得注意的是运动员的政治能动性。社交媒体平台比以往任何时候都更能提供这种机会，”罗夫说，”体育在社会和社区中发挥着巨大作用，能够召集人们。它促成了原本不会发生的对话。现在，其中一些对话可能合你口味和心意，而另一些则不然。”
U.S. Olympian Hunter Hess responds after Trump calls him “a real loser”: “I love my country”

U.S. Olympian Hunter Hess said “there is so much that is great about America, but there are always things that could be better,” a day after President Trump lashed out at him for saying he had “mixed feelings” about representing the United States at the Winter Olympics in response to a journalist’s question last week.
“I love my country,” Hess, a freestyle skier, said in a social media post Monday. “There is so much that is great about America, but there are always things that could be better. One of the many things that makes this country so amazing is that we have the right and the freedom to point that out.
“The best part of the Olympics is that it brings people together, and when so many of us are divided we need that more than ever,” Hess said. “I cannot wait to represent Team USA next week when I compete. Thanks to everyone for their support.”

American snowboarders at the Olympics also weighed in when asked by a journalist on Monday if they’d like to address Mr. Trump calling Hess a “real loser” or how they felt representing Team USA.
Bea Kim said she thinks “there are a lot of different opinions in the U.S. right now. Obviously, we’re very divided. I personally am very proud to represent the United States. That being said, I think diversity is what makes us a very strong country and what makes us so special.”
Maddie Mastro said she was proud to represent the United States, but she’s “also saddened with what’s happening at home. It’s really tough. I feel like we can’t turn a blind eye to that. But at the same time, I represent a country that has the same values as mine, of kindness and compassion. And we come together in times of injustice.”
“My parents being immigrants, this one definitely hits pretty close to home,” two-time Olympic gold medalist Chloe Kim said. “I think in moments like these, it is really important for us to unite and kind of stand up for one another, for all that’s going on. And I think that I’m really proud to represent the United States. The U.S. has given my family and I so much opportunity. But I also think that we are allowed to voice our opinions on what’s going on. And I think that we need to lead with love and compassion. And I would love to see some more of that.”

International Olympic Committee spokesperson Mark Adams told journalists Monday that he was “not going to add to the discourse” about Mr. Trump’s remark.
“I won’t comment on the statement of the president of the United States, nor would I do so for any other head of state,” Adams said.
When asked if Hess needs more protection after Mr. Trump’s comment, Adams declined to publicly discuss security issues.
The U.S. and Paralympic Committee said Sunday it was aware of an increasing amount of harmful messages directed at athletes, and that it was doing its best to report credible threats to law enforcement and remove harmful content, the Associated Press reported.
“I think it’s important to say what we feel and stand up for what we believe in and stand up to injustice, and I’ve been really proud seeing other athletes doing that,” Gus Kenworthy, a skier competing for the United Kingdom in the 2026 Winter Games, said in a video on social media late Sunday.
Last week, Kenworthy, who is a dual U.S.-U.K. national and has previously competed for Team USA, posted a photo of an explicit message condemning U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on social media. The message was written in urine in the snow.
“I just want to remind everyone that you can love the U.S. and be proud to be an American – I am – and still think it can be better, and still think that the country can improve,” Kenworthy said. “And just because you love the U.S. doesn’t mean you stand with this administration and stand behind their politics and their legislation and support the things that they support. Because I don’t. And I do not support ICE, and I think it’s absolutely evil and awful and terrifying.”
Last week, Team USA freestyle skier Chris Lillis told journalists, in response to questions about political issues at home, that he felt “heartbroken about what’s happened in the United States” and that “as a country, we need to focus on respecting everybody’s rights and making sure that we’re treating our citizens as well as anybody with love and respect.”
Late Sunday, he posted a social media video of him falling while attempting a ski run.
“For all the haters here’s one of me crashing to get you stoked,” the caption said. “Don’t worry I’m pretty tough.”
“Athletes since the ancient games have been political and politicized,” J. Simon Rofe, an associate professor in sports diplomacy at the University of Leeds told CBS News.
Rofe mentioned when American track medalists Tommie Smith and John Carlos raised their fists in protest on the podium at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico as just one of many examples of Olympic athletes using their positions to take a stand on political issues.
“What’s noticeable [in these Winter Games] is athletes’ agency in being political. So the platforms of social media provide that opportunity to a far greater degree than we’ve seen in the past,” Rofe said. “Sport plays that huge role in society and communities of convening people together. It allows for conversations that wouldn’t happen otherwise. Now, some of those conversations may be to your taste and to your disposition, and some of them will not be.”
