I hope they all pull out, like Fred Sr. should have.

FIFA bowed to Trump, gave him the World Cup trophy and some made-up award, and still didn't get any favors. Par For The Course....

At the rate the awards are being handed out to Donald Trump, he will be the man of the match for all matches, get the golden boot, golden ball, golden glove, fair play, AND lifting the World Cup itself as the captain of the winning country. What an abhorrent and insufferable piece of shit. F****** serial rapist and serial pedophile!

Cancel the tournament. It’ll be another thing to leave a shit stain on our stupid f****** country.

Absolutely boycott the tournament. Why keep kowtowing to the bully? And supporting the self-serving FIFA board financially?

The whole point is to encourage all the other countries to drop out. Then Trump can waddle onto the field, "kick" a "goal", and claim he won the World Cup singlehandedly. Oh, and get another trophy, too.

Is it normal to be tax exempt from FIFA world cups, and are there no foreign tax credits available in their home country?
