But until then, here's what I THINK happened:
The USA athletes came out as the third-to-last group on the main stage. Most of the people in the audience applauded USA. But then they showed Vance and his wife (waving their flags) up on the big TV screen, and people saw them and boo'd for JD Vance.
Maybe it was misunderstood - maybe people thought the audience was booing for the athletes, but I don't think that's what happened. I don't want the athletes to think that, anyway. The American teams get a lot of respect at the Olympics, and most of the athletes don't give a shit about politics anyway.
I want to watch the opening show for myself and see what really happened. I have always loved the Olympics and it breaks my heart that the MAGA politics have put this whole black cloud over everything.
