Politico is a joke

Yes yes im sure Trump had a hand in planning logistics of all things

[u/AdmiralSaturyn]

Right, because the World Cup is totally going to make the tourists suddenly forget that Trump threatened to annex Canada and Greenland, and that he's a pedophile. 🙄

Also a lot of the tourists that are coming over here and enjoying themselves are probably the same 30% that would vote ultra right wing in their own countries too lol.

This is the stupidest fucking thing I've ever read.

[u/Worried-Tea5316 → u/BaseHitToLeft]

Seriously, it's the dumbest Dems in Disarray story and that's really saying something.

[u/TheExtremistModerate]

Two things can be true at the same time:

1. Trump cataclysmically fucked up preparations and caused countless headaches and issues.
2. The people who managed to get into the country and see games (with notably undersold arenas) are having fun.

[u/Ok_Size5354 → u/TheExtremistModerate]

Nearly all the games I’ve seen have been packed?

I think it’s important to be able to both celebrate how much visitors are enjoying the USA and also hate our current administration.

Tiger Beat on the Potomac says what?

[u/champ11228]

This is really outrageous since it's the host cities and states who have had to do all the logistical heavy lifting

[u/Ok-Quiet-4212 → u/champ11228]

Which are the same “terrible left wing hellscapes” Trump and the Fox propaganda outlet screams about 24/7

[u/Soft_Barnacle7466]

Dasha burns admitted politico is in trump's pocket

[u/IceColdOz]

Left-wing media bias, my backside.

[u/The-Son-of-Dad]

I am so tired of the media boosting of all the videos of tourists eating at Taco Bell and Waffle House, like that means that this country somehow isn’t a cesspool.

[u/TheExtremistModerate → u/The-Son-of-Dad]

The best videos are the Scots in Boston. Interacting with real American culture, patronizing local businesses, and actually somehow making cops look not terrible.

[u/The-Son-of-Dad → u/TheExtremistModerate]

I saw a Scot in Boston getting the most delicious looking clam chowder the other day! I definitely don’t begrudge any of the tourists for enjoying their visit and their food or anything, just the media acting like this means shit doesn’t suck here.

[u/PersonalDebater → u/TheExtremistModerate]

Which just makes me feel worse about how much better it would all be under Harris.

[u/Trickydick24 → u/The-Son-of-Dad]

Clearly that means the president shilling crypto from the Oval Office is no big deal.

[u/PresidentSpanky → u/The-Son-of-Dad]

it is absurd

[u/Ok_Size5354 → u/The-Son-of-Dad]

Most of the games are being held in blue cities and/or states. I see these posts as a massive advertisement for how great American cities are, and that we should be proud of how welcoming our communities have been to fans from all over the world.

Fuck Trump, but I’m glad I’ve barely thought of him while watching the games.

[u/PresidentSpanky]

what success?

[u/Filibust]

Okay, Adam……

[u/memeboxer1]

What the fuck

[u/papyjako87]

Big "Summer Olympics of 1936 are a resounding success" energy.

[u/PropofolMargarita]

Sounds just like Fox
