Go ahead, who cares? You want to further degrade your image, have at it.

The last time I watched any Olympics was the sole event of the US vs Russia hockey game. Incredible!

I'm reminded of a spam phone call I received a few weeks ago.

Him: "I'm calling from Publisher's Clearing House about your winnings."

Me: "I see. When did PCH exit bankruptcy?"

*click*

I suspect the original article, slanted as it is against Trump, exposes the real issue: is California solvent enough and safe enough to hold the Olympics? Is California in general and LA in particular "clean" enough to host? (By "clean" I mean free of feces and hypodermic needles on the ground.)

Okay, then. To these leftists, Trump is Hitler. Hitler used the Olympics for propaganda purposes. Thus, Trump will use the Olympics for propaganda purposes.

Interesting logic......

Funny article. It must have been preceded by lots of angst and fear and loathing, and I laugh thinking about this loser tormented by such thoughts. HAHAHA.

And back in 1936, JFK’s dad and many Hollywood luminaries very admired Hitler.

“Hosting an Olympic Games requires us to work together with a lawless U.S. regime — and its rights-violating security apparatus — as it openly wages war against our city and state.”

Projecting, as usual

“This event is now too dangerous for California. Hosting an Olympic Games requires us to work together with a lawless U.S. regime — and its rights-violating security apparatus — as it openly wages war against our city and state”

I think you have this completely backwards.

Los Angeles has turned an inexpensive Olympics into an expensive Olympics.

Almost all of the sports facilities are pre-existing and re-purposed facilities, starting with the L.A. Coliseum that was used during the 1932 Olympics and was first re-used during the 1988 Olympics.

What has made the Los Angeles Olympics into a potential financial disaster are the many “infrastructure” projects tacked onto the event. Among these infrastructure projects is an expansion of the Los Angeles Airport. This project is currently projected to cost $30 billion (more than the entire cost of new or renovated sports facilities).

In view of the financial disasters of several recent Olympics, few cities were interested in hosting future Olympics. Then, the idea of relying mostly on existing sport facilities, greatly reduced the cost, and Paris and Los Angeles were approved for future Olympics.

But, leave it to the spendaholics in California to turn a fine idea of keeping the cost low of an Olympics into a sink hole of losses.

Just another attempt to kill the Olympics just like having a tranny last supper in France during the opening ceremony

The President was at the Super Bowl this year in New Orleans. He might go to the next one in the bay area where the 49ers play. The one after that will be at SoFi stadium in LA. World Cup soccer will have a number of games in California next year as well. Shutting those down would be far easier than the Olympics.

They’ll hold them because of the opportunity to steal large amounts of taxpayer money.

Karen Bass was handing out checks to illegal aliens a couple of weeks ago and this fool of a writer is whining LA can’t afford the Olympics. Wake up Joe. You know the real reason why LA is broke. Stop projecting all of your city and state’s problems on Trump. You and your fellow liberals created the economic disaster in LA and throughout the state of California!

I couldn’t care less if there’s an Olympics or not.

This guy could win a Gold in the Trump Derangement Syndrome event and another in the Stupid Comment event as well.

I can't imagine that they're making the necessary preparations in Los Angeles for the Olympics. This isn't 1984.

It'll probably be as dysfunctional as the Paris Olympics.
