Donald Trump Jr. criticized the “satanic” imagery conveyed in the drag queens’ performance during the 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony.
Don Jr. interpreted the scene performed as a parody of Leonardo da Vinci’s “The Last Supper,” which depicts Jesus Christ’s meal with his apostles before his crucifixion.
“As a kid we would be excited for weeks leading up to the games,” he wrote on X.
“Now with the ever predictable (& seemingly satanic to me) drag queen opening ceremonies and never-ending bs, no one I know even thinks about it beyond maybe watching some highlights,” he added.
“It’s such a shame that event that used to create so much national pride now creates, at best, indifference,” he stated. “Using the games to push woke ideology has zero to do with anything the games stands for. Rather than highlighting the incredible accomplishments of these amazing athletes corp media subverts all their hard work to push leftist insanity… it’s not only a shame, but a true disservice to some of the most talented and dedicated people on earth.”
“Hopefully one day enough people will finally have had enough of the BS,” Don Jr. concluded. “Till then you can continue to watch everything good and decent and everything you hold dear get burned to the f—ing ground. The choice is yours.”
On Sunday, the opening ceremony’s artistic director Thomas Jolly spoke on the French news channel BFMTV, stating that the performance was not intended to resemble “The Last Supper,” but instead resemble a scene based on the Greek god of wine Dionysus.
“The idea was to make a pagan festival linked to the gods of Olympus,” Jolly stated. “You will never find me in a desire to mock and denigrate anyone. I wanted to do a ceremony which repairs, which reconciles, and also which reaffirms the values of our republic, liberty-equality-fraternity.”.
On April 24, Don Jr. and his fiancé, Kimberly Guilfoyle, celebrated their sixth anniversary by posting images of one another on Instagram.
