Biden loves the Georgia boycott — So why won't he boycott the Beijing Olympic games?
By Joe Concha, Opinion Contributor — 04/09/21 09:30 AM EDT President Biden has just created another crisis after applauding Major League Baseball's decision to move its All-Star game – and the $100 million it meant in business for a majority Black community in Cobb County, Ga. – to lily-white Colorado, a state with similar voting laws.
The precedent being set by the 46th president is clear: If he disagrees with a local or state law, he will "strongly support" boycotts or outright elimination of events in that area.
So, given the precedent being set here, the U.S. will surely boycott the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, right?
For starters, China was the origin of a deadly pandemic that has killed more than 550,000 Americans in just over a year. The communist government wasn't forthright about its existence in the crucial early stages of what has resulted in the deaths of 2.89 million people worldwide. In response, China not only says it did nothing wrong. It has also accused the U.S. Army of being responsible for COVID-19.
