Detroit
They actually made serious bids back in the 50s and 60s and came close to getting them in 1968 (I think)
The now-classic promo film Detroit: City on The Move (1965), was produced in an attempt to get the 1972 Olympics
But that was another Detroit...

Detroit has tons of dilapidated neighborhoods and now-vacant land. Perfect places for new Olympic stadiums.
ETA: put the Silverdome to good use and outsource some events to brand new venues built on the former site of Buick City in Flint.
