I wonder if he’s going to import a bunch of H-1B people to build and run the stadium and make Americans train them.

True, but realize how many jobs and monetary benefits it brings into local economies. Plus, it would be nice to have a LA/OC NFL team that I can root for. I've never been one to pick an outside team to support. Gotta have the home team.
