Olympics 2024 Thread

Her thinking is warped. Especially for being a doctor and all. 

After the WH departure, watch for her to employ home health for Joe as he rots; simutaneously   as she does her Fabulous Former First Lady National Tour.

That is how despicable this wench probably is.

She's not even a real doctor...her degree is Doctor of EDUCATION...she's an "educrat."

A degree she got in a box of Cracker Jack, at that.

Oh, I know. I always make fun of her pretentious title.

Any reports about the viewership of the Olympics yet?  I would imagine the numbers will be low.

This is the first time I have had zero interest in the Olympics.  Just do not care.  And the fact they are operating without electric is laughable about France.  I consider it one of the most over rated nations in today's world.

She wanted a Cadillac  but Jill was looking for a ruby in a mountain of rocks.

Confirmed:

    2024 interest is significantly down on the 48 per cent of US adults who intended to watch the 2016 Olympics
    34 per cent of US adults said they will not watch much of this year’s event, while 30 per cent do not plan to watch any of the Games
    39 per cent of women plan to watch a great deal or fair amount of Paris 2024, which is more than the 32 per cent of men, who intend to do the same
    Women’s gymnastics picked by 42 per cent of US Olympics fans as the sport they are most looking forward to watching at the Summer Games
    The next most popular sport is men’s track and field, which was the first choice of ten per cent of US Olympics fans, while seven per cent of fans nominated women’s track and field

Context:

Interest for Paris 2024 is at the lowest level Gallup has recorded since 2000, with the analytics and advisory company not conducting a similar survey for the pandemic-impacted 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. By contrast, there are more US adults seemingly not interested in the Games than ever before, with 30 per cent marking the highest level of apathy seen by Gallup.

Women’s gymnastics is by far the most popular sport among US Olympics fans, with 68 per cent putting the sport among their top three choices of events to watch. It is particularly popular among female fans, with 60 per cent naming women’s gymnastics as the sport they’re most interested in watching. This can be attributed to the huge popularity of Simone Biles, who is one of Team USA’s most recognisable athletes at the Games.

A friend of mine  - fitness fanatic and avid swimmer - is watching a lot of the events. She admits the opening ceremony was awful and offensive to her as a Christian,  but said she watches only to support the athletes for all their hard work, not as an endorsement of all the nonsense.

Excerpt from the article:
A firebrand conservative who became one of Pope Francis’ most ardent critics has been excommunicated by the Vatican for speaking out on several “dangerous” issues.

Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, who once served as the Vatican’s ambassador to the U.S. decided to call Emanuel Macron’s wife a Transvestite and called out Michelle Obama as a “Muscular Man in a Wig”, while condemning the Satanic Olympics



Wow he just casually threw it out there as a statement of fact, just like Joan Rivers did

The Alphabet army won't like this at all!!!!

Perhaps he should have told the star of his show, the fat lesbian woman portraying Jesus Christ:

Sarah Fields
@SarahisCensored
Barbara Butch, the woman in the center, posted this photo to her instagram, admitting that this photo had everything to do with them mocking the scriptures.  She then deleted it a few hours later and called it “the feast of the Gods”.
Nope.  Caught.

That's just wrong. So that is just another strike against them. No wonder the viewership is down.

I used to be an avid Olympic viewer. Now I watch gymnastics  and equestrian when I can get them. It's not the athletes fault that the opening ceremony was ridiculous in so many ways. I still want to believe that some of them are genuine competitors.

I stated in the beginning of the thread that I hadn't seen the Last Supper nonsense or the Marie Antoinette head in hands or the menage a tois. That may have been because of the presentation. It was split screen and for the most part I was watching the entrance of the athletes. It had a very Cirque De Solei atmosphere so I might not have recognized it for what it was had I seen this. Had it been done as in the past with the entrance of athletes followed by the "show" it would have been far more evident.

All I can at this point is...Forget it Jake, it's France.

The funniest part of the whole Drag Last Supper controversy is the attempt by the left to justify it by saying "it wasn't the Last Supper, it was Bacchanal!"

As if glorifying a giant orgy was any more defensible!

Frankly, I don't see any of it as funny, I find it disgusting and enough to make me want to puke.  I used to love watching the Olympics.  I haven't watched any of it this year.  Notta.  They can kiss my royal grits!!

I love how the lefty bastards can't cancel who might be one of the greatest tennis players of all time.  Can you imagine staring this guy down during his serve?

I knew he was a great guy, when he was one of only a handful of those athletes who thumbed their noses up at the Vax Mandate.

Excerpt from the article:
A heated debate has erupted in Paris after it was revealed that Imane Khelif of Algeria and Lin Yu-Ting of Taiwan, two boxers previously banned from the Women’s World Boxing Championships for being deemed biologically male, have been cleared to compete in the upcoming Olympics as women.

The controversy began when Khelif and Yu-Ting were disqualified from the Women’s World Boxing Championships in March 2023 in New Delhi following a series of DNA tests that raised questions about their biological sex. The tests, ordered amid concerns over the sex of some competitors, reportedly showed that the athletes had ‘XY chromosomes’, according to Umar Kremlev, president of the International Boxing Association (IBA). Kremlev claimed the tests exposed athletes “trying to fool their colleagues and pretend to be women.”

However, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has since stripped the IBA of the right to run Olympic boxing competitions over governance concerns. The IOC has deemed all athletes, including Khelif and Yu-Ting, eligible to compete under its more relaxed current rules.



Wow, did you know that there are TWO Olympic boxers that will fight women despite failed testosterone tests?


Is this fair for women's sports?


Letting a man knock a woman this way in the Olympics, is violence against women. Our voice should be here.


We need Trump back to protect women and children
