So Obama proposes a plan to an org than is known for saddling cities in debt and they turn the plan down. Trump 'gave them what they wanted to hear' and got the deal done. High IQ business moves right there.

By March of 2017, there were only 2 cities in the running, Paris and Los Angeles, so they agreed to split them. Paris in 2024, Los Angeles in 2028.
