So many people, this reporter included, were off base in predicting how Trump’s bombastic ways and controversial policies would affect things.
Few were more wrong than former U.S. Soccer president Sunil Gulati. He said before President Obama was elected in 2008 that a Democratic president would give a U.S. World Cup bid the greatest chance of success. He then hinted in the summer of 2016 that Trump’s then-unlikely tilt at the presidency would be a detrimental factor, adding that a joint bid involving Mexico was likely a non-starter unless “Secretary Clinton was in the White House.”
Gulati is gone as president and was a peripheral member of the bid by the end, while Trump, who has little history of showing any real knowledge or interest in soccer, was left to claim many of the late plaudits.
As this all relates to sports, scorecards are appropriate. And as much as Obama had charisma that stretched far beyond American borders, that never translated into votes for big athletic extravaganzas. On that front it’s Trump 2, Obama 0.

Yeah man we have nothing else.
Nothing like economic expansion, low unemployment, consumer and small business confidence, tax cuts, conservative Supreme Court, North Korea denuclearization

I personally don't think the Olympics is a win, the cost to build all the facilities usually does not pay off for the hosting city.
However now that MAGA is in the Picture, that may be different, I hope so

This.
If a Dem president got the Olympics this board would be crying about what a waste of money it is.
