You all are probably too young to remember when trump got involved in the US Football League in the mid-1980s. Interesting sidebar in US professional sports. I rarely hear it mentioned among trump's "bankrupt/failed endeavors."

And now it turns out that the Saudis may not be so grateful for the opportunity to buy prestige by compromising the principles of pro golfers that they will ignore the damage that Trump's war of choice against Iran is causing them, since the Iranians turn out to have left-over offensive capacity and the Saudis are within its range. (It's not as if they were friends before.)

So LIV golf may not have the golden future that Trump and others foresaw.

Why anyone from a non-white country would risk coming to the US for football/soccer games while Steven Miller controls border policy is a mystery. I wonder if any of the countries represented in the World Cup are among the many that have issued travel advisories to their citizens about entering the US. (That is a pretty ascertainable statistic, I just find it more fun to speculate about it than to spend the time ascertaining it. Many countries that have issued such warnings are predominantly white, too. Everyone is at some risk when ICE is on the loose.)
