Holy shit, he refused to give back the original trophy, stole a medal and then ruined the celebration. These are the hallmarks of a fricking 4 year old at someone else’s birthday party!

      You didn’t fix it. According to the article, FIFA let Trump keep the trophy and gave players the replica.

        According to Trump* FIFA said he could keep it.

        Until Gianni Infantino comes out and confirms that, I don’t believe it for a second.

    This may be a distraction, so just remember: Trump wants us to forget about the Epstein files, which had just been on Pam Bondi’s desk.

      Did anybody honestly believe that the Trump administration would release their own incriminating evidence about Epstein? We all know Trump went to that island multiple times, raped underaged girls, and then when Epstein was caught, told his lackey Billy Barr to get rid of them, who then ordered guards in the prison to murder Epstein.

      The Trump admin would never admit to any of that, no matter how many times we’re going to point to some sliver on a video and say “GOT EM!”

      Because conservatives identify with felons and rapists and wanted to make one president of the United States.

    Felon.

    Rapist.

    Thief.

    I mean he stole classified documents and refused to return them so his home was raided.

    No one should be any degree of shocked by this.

      It’s not like he raped a thirteen year old and got away with it.

      I mean. Not exactly like that.

    I’ve heard FIFA is no stranger to engaging in world-class levels of corruption. This is just the corrupt eating their own.

    🤣 that reminds me of when Putin stole a Super Bowl ring from Robert Kraft. Seems about right Trump has always wanted to be like Putin. What a loser 😂

    It has a 24-carat gold-plated finish and is thought to have cost around $230,000 to make.

    Now, imagine you go to a FIFA play without a ticket.

    Edit: According to Trump, that was a present from FIFAs President Gianni Infantino.

    The FIFA boss has been in Washington, D.C., 10 times since Donald Trump returned to office in January, in an attempt to woo the president. He has previously argued that proximity to the president is “absolutely crucial” to the success of the 2026 World Cup, which will be partly hosted in the U.S
