The Enhanced Games, a radical alternative to the Olympics where performance-enhancing drugs are fair game, has secured a multi-million dollar investment led by Donald Trump Jr., The Post has learned.
The funding round, which closed last week, marks a major milestone for the so-called “steroid Olympics”, ensuring its first-ever U.S. event later this year. The games will include competitions in track, swimming, weightlifting, gymnastics, and combat sports, with a $1 million payout for record-breakers.
Trump’s America Makes It Possible
Australian businessman Aron D’Souza, president of the Enhanced Games, made it clear: this event wouldn’t have happened under Biden.
“We wouldn’t have hosted the games in the United States if Biden was elected,” D’Souza told The Post. “Silicon Valley CEOs were all Democrats until this election, and it was because of the Biden administration’s deep, deep antagonism towards innovation and technology.”
D’Souza singled out Biden’s war on cryptocurrency as a major factor that pushed investors toward a more business-friendly Trump administration.
A Direct Challenge to the Olympics
The Enhanced Games is a direct challenge to the International Olympic Committee (IOC), which D’Souza calls a “multi-billion-dollar monopoly” terrified of competition.
Unlike the Olympics, which bans doping while still being riddled with scandals, the Enhanced Games embraces performance-enhancing drugs, allowing athletes to push the limits of human potential under strict medical supervision.
D’Souza compared Olympic sponsors like McDonald’s and Coca-Cola to drug dealers, arguing that fast food has done more harm to public health than any performance-enhancing drug ever could.
A Powerful Investor Lineup
In addition to Trump Jr., the Enhanced Games has drawn backing from billionaire Peter Thiel, venture capitalist Christian Angermayer, and crypto investor Balaji Srinivasan.
Thiel’s involvement is no surprise—he has deep ties to the Trump administration and previously funded the takedown of Gawker, the tabloid that targeted conservative figures.
D’Souza, who himself has admitted to using performance-enhancing drugs, says the games will align well with Trump’s newly appointed Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
“He’s in his 70s, doing pull-ups, going to the gym every day in a way Joe Biden never could,” D’Souza quipped.
Athletes Are Already Lining Up
So far, only one athlete has publicly signed on—Australian Olympic swimmer James Magnussen, who was offered $1.5 million to break the 50-meter freestyle record.
“I’ll juice to the gills and I’ll break it in six months,” Magnussen boldly declared.
With massive payouts and a chance to rewrite the record books, expect more elite athletes to start considering the Enhanced Games as a serious alternative to the bureaucratic, scandal-plagued Olympic system.
The Bottom Line: A Sports Revolution Under Trump’s America
The Enhanced Games represents a seismic shift in sports, one that wouldn’t have happened under a Democrat-run nanny state. With Trump back in office, entrepreneurs and investors are once again free to innovate, and the monopolies that have ruled for decades are finally facing competition.
