In the current Freedom Medal standing, NBC right now is ranking Canada 3rd overall with only 4 golds while the US is 5th with 8. That’s the kind of sacrifice they’re willing to make for a democratic medal system just to stick it to China.

Google it, there are a lot of articles about the US “my rule based” historical changes in counting medals.
