Wherever Trump Goes, Disaster Follows | World Cup Edition

Summary: Dr. Jim says Trump does not turn everything he touches into gold. He turns it into something much worse.In this episode, Dr. Jim uses Trump’s involvement in sports as the latest example of what he calls the reverse Midas touch. The main example is Trump allegedly intervening with FIFA to get Flo Balogun’s red card overturned before the U.S. played Belgium, only for the U.S. men’s national team to deliver what Dr. Jim describes as one of its most embarrassing performances in a major competition.The broader argument: whether it is business, politics, the country, or sports, Trump’s presence is a curse. Wherever he sticks his nose in, things go sideways.Chapters: 00:00 – Trump’s reverse Midas touch00:48 – Flo Balogun’s red card gets overturned01:52 – Wherever Trump sticks his nose, things tank03:27 – Trump at Madison Square Garden04:29 – Everything Trump touches diesSubscribe to Cascading Leadership on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@cascadingleadership?si=Bvj34b6Tg7-u3QewSubscribe to Left in Exile on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@leftinexile?si=EHCAL963OWkcgSGgSubscribe to my Substack: https://substack.com/@cascadingleadershipCollaborate with me: cal.com/dr.jim-cl-gtm/30min-networkingMusic Credit: Good_B_Music Mentioned in this episode:Left in Exile Outro Left in Exile Intro
