Morgan criticized the lack of apology from Olympic\u200b organizers and highlighted the dissonance between the event&#8217;s reception and \u200cthe views of prominent\u200d attendees, including First \u2062Lady Jill Biden, who described the ceremony as &#8220;spectacular.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The\u2063 backlash included calls \u2064for a statement from President \u200dBiden, a practicing Catholic, reflecting on \u200bthe offense caused by the\u2063 ceremony. The discussion revolved around the broader implications of the ceremony for Christian representation and sensitivity in global events.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section>\n<p>Former President Donald Trump gave the Paris Olympics a gold medal for bad taste over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/jill-biden-will-represent-the-united-states-at-the-tokyo-olympics-take-diplomatic-meetings\/\" title=\"Jill Biden Will Represent The United States At The Tokyo Olympics, Take Diplomatic Meetings\">opening ceremonies<\/a> that featured a drag queen&rsquo;s take on The Last Supper.<\/p>\n<p>The Friday ceremony stirred anger among <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/harrison-butker-quotes-scripture-stand-olympics-unabashed-pagan-ceremonies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Christians<\/a> around the world for Satanic imagery, drag queens arranged in the patterns of da Vinci&rsquo;s &ldquo;The Last Supper&rdquo; and a pale horseman of the Apocalypse riding through Paris.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I thought that the opening ceremony was a disgrace, actually,&rdquo; Trump said on &ldquo;The Ingraham Angle&rdquo; Monday, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/trump-slams-opening-ceremony-2024-paris-olympics-thought-disgrace\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox News<\/a>. &ldquo;I thought it was a disgrace.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">This is crazy.

On &#8220;The Ingraham Angle,&#8221; Trump expressed his disapproval, stating, \u201cI thought it was a disgrace.\u201d He remarked that replacing Jesus and his disciples with men in drag was outrageous and suggested that the Olympics seemed to be signaling to the 2.4 billion Christians worldwide that they were not welcome.<\/p>\n<p>Trump also indicated that if he had any influence over the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic committee, such disrespect towards Christians would not happen again.
