Is not 'may'. It already has. Not a lot of people in Japan is currently fond of hearing about the Olympic and it's high cost. Especially not the corporations who got screwed over by the previous one.

It all depends on the level of corruption the IOC is prepared to accept. History suggests the bar is very low. The cloud over Sapporo's bid could be very thin and wispy.

Drag out the investigations as long as possible so that Sapporo can't get the games.

The Olympic swine, both foreign and domestic, can go jump in a snowbank. No one not associated with politics wants that ridiculous waste of money in Hokkaido.

Meh I doubt it
they did the last one peak pandemic despite public not wanting to
oc repeatedly told Japan “ you cannot say no to hosting now “ like they would have militarily attacked us or something if we didn’t
no one is surprised in the effin least that the people who stood to make money off this were gaming the system
even with this they still threw up their hand for Sapporo immediately and ignored people wanting them to pass on it, again

One can only hope this gets Japan out of the running.
