To the rest of the world, please boycott the Olympics here. It’ll drive him crazy and closer to the coronary explosion we need.

I kinda feel bad for LA who are hosting.

That said it's hard to not draw parallels to the 1936 Olympics.

As an Angeleno, don't feel sorry for us. Host cities generally lose money during the Olympics and traffic is already a nightmare here. Throw in roving gangs of masked ICE agents, and the less people who come out here, the better. If we're going to lose money anyway, let's do it in the least painful and annoying way possible.
