    He literally bombed iran to destroy their facilities and he failed. The facilities are still in tact. The gaza ceasefire happened before biden left office. Trump is bombing fishing boats in carribean while pardoning the head of a drug cartel responsible for laundering billions.

    The idea that hes been "anti war" or "peace" is delusional. FIFA created this trophy out of thin air cuz they dont want Trump moving any of the games. Its all one huge ass kissing for a insecure human.

    Of course Trump and FIFA eventually found each other. It’s not like FIFA has a record of massive corruption or something.

    I love the World Cup of course like many, but exactly zero people respect FIFA anymore for being anything more than a slush fund for grifter sleaze bags. Trump and him deserve each other.

    Trump at least now can get himself a foreign indictment now. I guess he was bored of the old fashioned US DOJ indictments and wanted to see what a bribery and racketeering charge would look like from Switzerland or the UK.

    The people that love receiving participation trophies are the same ones complaining about people getting participation trophies.

    This hits hard… many voters seem to have lost the ability for shame and embarrassment.

    This is the kind of thing we laughed at Russia and North Korea for 10 years ago.

    Intentionally didn't pay attention to the last world cup because of the Qatar bribe/bullshit timing thing.

    Will likely not pay attention to this one either

    **** FIFA, **** the WC. Club soccer is enough.

    We have a favorable draw.
    Hopefully traffic is better than the FIFA Team World Cup.
    Just purchased tix for the knockout round at Met Life Stadium.
