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.

Vancouver definitely seemed to avoid most of the negative effects most cities face. One of the rinks built for the games (The Olympic Oval i think is the official name) is now a community center with 2 hockey rinks, ~8 basketball sized multi-use courts, a fitness center, about dozen ping pong tables, and probably more I'm not aware of.
It's quite far from where I live so I don't use it often but last year I was part of a sports league that used the facility and I was completely blown away. On any given day there are probably 100+ people using the courts, playing basketball, volleyball etc.
