12. This Olympics might be like the 1936 Olympics in Germany.

Germany put on a false face to assure that the Olympics would be held in Germany (as it had been designated) and ensure that the various nations would attend. They lied about who they were and once the event was over - evil and hatred reared its ugly head again.

Trump, his Cabinet, this GOP Congress, his enablers and his voters have created an environment where it may not be safe for people that are not white. That is the sad truth, and in some cases, whites may not be white enough. Some people might be upset about this statement, but the MAGA crowd knows that this is true - they know who they are, just reminding them of who they are.

In light of how Trump’s America is not the America that was awarded the rights to put on the Olympics, it should be relocated to another hospitable venue. Whereas Hitler/Germany made false assurances about the 1936 Olympics and the openness about the events, we know that Trump and his entourage will lie, lie, and lie again.

I would hate to see the American Brownshirts/ICE do harm to some innocents non-Americans as they have done to some Americans.
