The Olympic opening ceremony brought with it a mixed bag of reactions, and Donald Trump Jr. has claimed that the entire thing was "satanic".
Due to pouring rain, unconventional performances, and mishaps like an upside-down flag, many have labeled the event as the "worst in Olympics history."
However, some critics have taken their complaints further, accusing the Games of being under "Satanic control."
Prominent among the outspoken critics on X (formerly Twitter) was Andrew Tate.
He posted a clip from the ceremony, commenting: "Satanists control the west and they show you that they worship the devil. It’s not a conspiracy theory. They literally show you. Are you blind?"
Another user echoed similar sentiments, stating: "Dear Normies, You’re probably sat at home, watching the French Olympics thinking what the actual **** is this. Well it’s just another a conspiracy playing out in front of your very eyes.
"The one where we tell you - the World is run by satanic globalists who control everything. These people do very strange sick things & openly worship Satan or a brand of. They love showing this fact off. Do you see it yet? They’re not even hiding it."
The shared clip depicted a singer cradling her own head while performing with the heavy metal band Gojira, with "blood" red smoke and fire in the background.
Donald Trump Jr. has joined the chorus of critics denouncing the Paris Olympic Games' opening ceremony, specifically targeting a segment featuring drag queens posed in a style reminiscent of Leonardo da Vinci’s "The Last Supper."
“It’s such a shame that an event that used to create so much national pride now creates, at best, indifference,” Trump Jr. wrote on X.
Displaying an unexpected interest in Italian High Renaissance art, he added: “Using the games to push woke ideology has zero to do with anything the games stands for.”
The former president’s son described the scene as “seemingly satanic” and reiterated a debunked claim that his late mother, Ivana Trump, was an Olympian.
In 1988, Ivana Trump stated she was selected as an alternate for the Czechoslovakia ski team at the 1972 Olympics in Grenoble, a claim later denied by the Czech Olympic Committee, per Yahoo! Entertainment.
While some continue to claim that the ceremony was "satanic", others have noted that they were simply portraying historical events such as the beheading of Marie Antoinette.
Either way, it was certainly a spectacle!
