Waste of time. The Olympics has been totally corrupt from top to bottom, including many of the players, since the 1960s: $15,000 shotguns here, $5000 a night hookers there, 5* hotels for every official, billions of many countries' taxpayers monies wasted on useless-after-the games Olympic sites. Time to end this bastardization of "amateur athletic competition".

Trump negotiated bringing the Olympics to the USA in 2028. He believes it brings prestige and money to our country. As a negotiating position, threatening not to allow the games to be played in the USA seems pretty weak to me.

I approve this message. The symbolism is great.

You make an excellent point, Lloyd. I share your sentiment. However, holding the Olympics hostage is not the way. Can you imagine what would happen all subsequent Olympics as they are held hostage.

They’d disappear and we wouldn’t get to see wizened Bob Costas with the obviously dyed hair bring us all the Up Close and Personal fillers?
