Trump Rigged a World Cup Game He Doesn’t Understand, for a Guy He’d Deport, and STILL Lost ⚽️❌

Published 3 months, 3 weeks ago
Description

Donald Trump didn’t like a red card at the World Cup, so he called FIFA president Gianni Infantino and had it overturned, the first World Cup red card reversed like this in over 60 years, for a sport he openly admitted he doesn’t understand.

The player he moved the entire federal government to protect? Folarin Balogun, the birthright-citizen son of Nigerian immigrants, the exact policy Trump is fighting to destroy.

Then he smeared the referee, bragged that Biden wouldn’t have done it, pre-loaded a “rigged” excuse before kickoff, and watched Belgium beat the United States 4-1 anyway.

Everything Donald Trump touches, he breaks, and then loses anyway.
