Ted Cruz thanked Trump, in the Oval Office, for getting rid of that "ridiculous" red card: "There was a reason the FIFA trophy sat here for as long as it did!"

    …and Trump seems to agree an like it.

    This is now beyond repair, official "acknowledgment" of interference in sports.🙁 My way or the highway… MAGA's are nuts.

    1. Cheating, lying, raping, betraying, insulting, scamming. There’s nothing they won’t do…

    2. I can guarantee you Ted Cruz does not know any of the rules of football nor has he watched a single game

      Is it bad for me to hope US loses today? Nothing against the team, but fuck these cheaters

      If the USA wins it all, at least in my mind, the victory will have an asterisk.

      Rescinding a red card for a man who was accidentally born in the US and claimed birthright citizenship and for whom Trump has been trying to get the Supreme Court to overturn the 14th Amendment to deny people like him a claim to citizenship.

      It’s the darkest comedy at this point.

      I feel so bad for Balogun and I wish him well but he should serve a suspension like everyone else.

      Lukaku if you can hear me I understand you’re washed but please blast these scumbags off the face of the earth tonight.

      I’m not surprised they’re crying about a red card.

      Most US Americans do not get football.

      When they played Australia, Australia were chanting songs that you’d hear anywhere in the world and the Americans were saying “you’re obsessed with us, we’re rent free!” No pals, it’s football…everyone sings at the opposition. Doesn’t matter if it’s Man United or Cork City or USA or Paraguay. Everyone gets mocked.

      Typical GOP cheaters gloating
      And they’re cheating for the rest of the world to see.

    9. I just hate that a World Cup full of positive stories and fans in cities with locals has had to come to this. Chance of progress? Then bend the rules to suit.

      HE DIDN’T GET RID OF THE RED CARD! He just isn’t going to face part of the punishment for it.

      What’s going to happen when USA lose? Is that going to get overturned as well?

      The ironic part? The player they’re doing this all for is only eligible to play for the USA because of birthright citizenship
