As we gear up for tonight’s presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, I want to bring our community together for an inaugural live chat focused on a side of politics we know well—sports.

As Sports Politika subscribers already know, the worlds of sports and politics are deeply intertwined, and this presidential debate is no exception. Trump has long been a fixture in the sports world, from promoting boxing matches to leveraging his connections with the UFC as part of his political image.

On the other hand, Harris has garnered support from prominent athletes like Steph Curry and engaged with the U.S. Olympic basketball team ahead of the 2024 Paris Games, solidifying her ties to the sports community.

Join me on Substack at 8:30pm ET/5:30pm PT and throughout the debate as we break down:

• Your thoughts on the role sports will play in shaping the national conversation during this election

• What to expect from both candidates regarding athletes’ rights, labor issues, and social movements in sports

• What sports stand to gain (or lose) from a Trump or Harris presidency.

It’s going to be a fascinating conversation, and I’d love for you to be a part of it. This inaugural live chat will be available to all subscribers so bring your opinions, predictions, and questions.

See you tonight,

Karim
