SHOCKING: Anti-America Olympic Skier INSTANTLY Changes Tune After Trump Takes Office

In what has to be one of the most transparent flip-flops in Olympic history, American skier Hunter Hess has performed a complete 180 on his feelings about representing the United States - and the timing couldn't be more obvious.

Just weeks ago, Hess was singing a very different tune, expressing "mixed emotions" about donning the Stars and Stripes for Team USA. But now, with President Trump firmly back in the White House and America First policies taking hold, suddenly this same athlete "cannot wait to represent Team USA."

What changed? Could it be that the anti-American woke narrative that was so fashionable under the Biden regime is suddenly not so popular anymore?

For four years, we watched athletes trash America on the world stage, taking knee during the national anthem and lecturing us about how terrible our country supposedly was. The left celebrated these displays of disrespect as "brave" and "courageous."

But here's the thing, Patriots - when you have a president who actually puts America first and makes no apologies for American greatness, suddenly these fair-weather patriots remember what an honor it is to represent the greatest nation on earth.

The Trump Effect in Action

This stunning reversal perfectly illustrates what we've been saying all along: the anti-American sentiment we witnessed during the Biden years wasn't organic - it was manufactured by a corrupt establishment that wanted Americans to hate their own country.

Now that we have real leadership back in Washington, watch how quickly these attitudes change. When you have a Commander-in-Chief who believes in American exceptionalism instead of apologizing for it, it creates a completely different cultural atmosphere.

Hess's sudden patriotic awakening is just the beginning. Mark my words - we're going to see a lot more of these convenient conversions as Trump's second term unfolds and America starts winning again.

The question is: should we trust these Johnny-come-lately patriots, or do actions speak louder than words? What do you think - is this genuine patriotism or just political opportunism?

Exactly! They love to bash America until they need our support and sponsorship dollars.

I've been coaching youth skiing for 15 years and always taught my kids to be proud to represent America. These professional athletes should be setting that example, not constantly complaining about their own country.

This is exactly why we needed Trump back in office. These woke athletes only respect strength and real leadership.

As someone who served this country for 20 years, it really bothered me seeing our own Olympic athletes disrespecting the flag. Maybe now they'll remember what country gave them the opportunity to compete.

Thank you for your service! My husband feels the same way - these ungrateful athletes need a reality check.

Hope this athlete learned their lesson. If you want to compete for Team USA, you better be proud to wear the red, white, and blue!
