They want to punish athletes who protest. They’re there to intimidate the Americans, not the Italians or anyone else.

I’m curious to see if any of the athletes who brought their families are gonna stay.

Unfortunately many of the competitors are rich kids with conservative parents, so I haven’t seen any likely candidates yet.
