Gianni Infantino, the international President of FIFA, absolutely burned that bloated bag of shit to ash for his behavior at the Club World Cup Final in New Jersey.
I'm including the IG video of his response but it is as full throated a slap in the face to turdballs I have every heard from a prominent international leader since the beginning.
Making it clear that he stole the fake trophy and that he was not wanted on the stage but refused to leave.
He made it clear that the Mango Mussolini was not welcome at future matches

(3,419 posts)These are very damning words that would have made the news. And this guy doesnt have the guts to say it because he cant afford to ostracize Trump - the main event is next year.

(10,897 posts)That the prospect of fans traveling and spending thousands of dollars to see a game only to get deported to a torture prison might not be the attraction some think it will be.

(6,079 posts)Did Donald Trump Really Keep Original FIFA Club World Cup Trophy, And Chelsea Receive Replica?
That was Trump full of shit as usual. The trophy Trump has was never meant to be the one awarded to the winning team. It was a sample or replica unveiled to show what the real thing would look like. In reality:
"I said, When are you going to pick up the trophy? [They said] 'We're never going to pick it up. You can have it forever in the Oval Office. We're making a new one,'" Trump said in an interview with official Club World Cup broadcaster Dazn on Sunday. "And they actually made a new one. So that was quite exciting, but it is in the Oval [Office] right now."
Chelsea rightfully received the "real" trophy.

(36,981 posts)That the "original" was "given" in March was a hint that something was going on and it wasn't Infantino caught off guard by its confiscation. More sucking up, but wasn't it around that time that concerns about FIFA participants getting visas to the US was an worry concern?
