When good faith is a luxury, is it any surprise?

Don't bother. He obviously enjoys being smug while grasping at straws.

You should've filled in for Simone Biles with all that mental gymnastics. We could've beaten those dirty Russians.

Ain't that the truth. These girls knew that if he so much as lunged at them, he would be the one villified by everyone. Him maintaining his composure wasn't a solution as much as it is a defense mechanism to prevent further harm to HIM. Crowd sympathy and support pales in compatison to dignity...

Not everyone was born a bitch like you.
