Like everything else, Trump's GOP wants to make the Olympics & other events like FIFA into sources of grift & public corruption.

The Olympics & FIFA are already rife with corruption, Trump wants to balloon the extortion & bribery.

It explains why gaming & gambling billionaires like Adelson, Bigelow, Fertitta, Wynn, Lutnick, and McMahon funded the GOP so heavily in 2024; the public corruption.

@jeffjarvis it will be a mess, like everything connected to Trump's America.
Boycotts, careers threatened, countries excluded, Oligarchs indulged....a mess.

@jeffjarvis BOYCOTT everything associated with ASSHOLERY. Sorry, but that specifically means the USA. Only hardcore domestic pain can fix this. This man and his party have ruined this nation, and it’s a huge question if we can ever regain our integrity. We’re monkeys in a cage throwing shit at each other.

@jeffjarvis

Is that the "wonderful games" he's talking about....?🤔

@jeffjarvis Unless we want this moment in our own current history to be a moral failure future generations will never forgive us for...

Consider that the famous 1936 Nazi Olympics, now widely recognized as a major propaganda victory for the Adolf Hitler regime, was the first time anyone proposed a boycott for human rights violations - and the leader of this proposal was The US.

The irony will not be lost on our children & grandchildren.

@jeffjarvis Reminds med of a certain OL in Germany.
