The usual MAGA crybabies are whining about athletes speaking out about the US at the Winter Olympics – 18 brutally funny responses worthy of gold
US athletes arrived at the Winter Olympics in Milan Cortina under a heavy cloud – specifically a giant orange cloud of racism and hate.
So, it was little surprise that the crowd started booing Team USA at the opening ceremony on Friday – though those jeers were more aimed at US vice president JD Vance and his wife Usha who were singled out by cameras.
Dear World,
For those of you who loudly BOOED JD Vance at the Olympics, we THANK YOU for your support. 💙🇺🇸
Love,
Americans who can't stand JD Vance pic.twitter.com/Gfsr46aYrc— BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ (@mmpadellan) February 6, 2026
Now, some of the athletes have started talking to the international media about the reaction to the US delegation – and why they have mixed feelings about representing their country at such a fraught time.

really glad to see these USA olympians speaking out and using the attention they are getting to shed light on the chaos and wrong doings taking place in the country right now. THIS STUFF is what makes me proud to be american, not the current administration and their actions. pic.twitter.com/ro60c18TG4

Their bravery has won them a lot of admirers. But, of course, the usual MAGA suspects like Megyn Kelly, Tomi Lahren and Jake Paul have come out in force to whine about the athletes, calling them “traitors”, reminding everyone how nobody hates free speech as much as right-wingers.

Luckily, people online have been quick to mock the conservatives for their incessant bitching.

The fastest way to spot fake patriotism is how quickly it demands silence. “Go home” is the default response of people who confuse loyalty with silence.

I could not be more proud of all the U.S. athletes at the Olympics using their platforms to speak out against the hatred and violence of the Trump regime. We have a Team USA giving us pride in a moment our government is causing us so much pain and embarrassment.

If we’re now rooting against American olympians because we don’t like their politics, are we supposed to root against America if we don’t like the POTUS?
Doesn’t seem very patriotic to me, Megyn.

Imagine @ByronDonalds telling US athletes during the 1960’s civil rights protests that they should just shut up and cheer for the homeland. https://t.co/wsgMERHlpS
