Donald Trump Reportedly Plans to Support Los Angeles' 2024 Summer Olympics Bid

President-elect Donald Trump reportedly expressed support for Los Angeles' 2024 Summer Olympics bid on Wednesday in a call with Mayor Eric Garcetti, according to Richie Duchon of NBC News.

"They had a productive conversation about ways to expand infrastructure investments and opportunities in communities across America," the mayor's office spokeswoman, Connie Llanos, said in a statement, per Duchon. "And the mayor stressed the important role that immigrants and immigration reform will play in L.A.'s—and the nation's—long-term success."

Los Angeles is among one of three cities that are still bidding for the 2024 Olympics, along with Paris and Budapest, Hungary.
