Soooooo...the 2028 Summer Olympics in L.A. [View all]

TACO will be President then (ugh). You can't tell me SOMEONE in the White House isn't thinking about how to commandeer this thing. Shades of Hitler's Berlin Olympics in 1936? The world's biggest stage and TV audience. Ripe for one big propaganda fest. Although, one would think the IOC would not let Trump get anywhere near this. But...who knows.
