There is hardly any mention of sport in the programs of the two candidates for the American presidential election on November 5. From Democrat Kamala Harris, no specific concrete proposal. Among his Republican competitor Donald Trump, the only promise is to “drive men out of women’s competitions” – in other words: he wants to ban the participation of transgender athletes.
However, both are interested in sport. Donald Trump is right at home in the world of mixed martial arts (MMA), and he gave one of his rare interviews to former American football players Will Compton and Taylor Lewan, now hosts of the podcast Bussin’ With The Boys. Kamala Harris accepted the podcast invitation All The Smokededicated to the NBA, while she flew banners bearing her image above several NFL stadiums, particularly located in pivotal states.
