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!

      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.

    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

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