    No one is going to come. Hope those wealthy backers plan to buy a whole lot of tickets. The international crowd sure ain’t coming for a visit to dear old leaders United States of Disappearance.

    Berlin 1936 Los Angeles 2028

    Fun fact: The Olympic Games immediately before Berlin 1936 was in Los Angeles!

    It’s like poetry, it rhymes.

      The former Staples Center is now called Crypto.com Arena, so that totally plausible.
