Interference by Trump in the World Cup.

Interestingly Folarin Balogun was brought up and trained in England. The reason he holds USA citizenship is under the 14th Amendment birthright rules.

Folarin Balogun's parents were visiting the USA and his mother was seven months pregnant, it was not considered safe for her to travel back to the UK so she gave birth to Folarin in the USA. The family travelled back to the UK as soon as it was considered safe for his mother to do so.

Ironically, it is well known that Trump wants the 14th Amendment birthright rules scrapped.

If the manager has any integrity, he wont include him in the next game .

If the manager were to do that, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if Trump then turned on him and made his life hell. He would probably take it as a personal slight and in his usual vindictive, petty way, would have to make someone pay 'bigly'for that. I can just imagine him calling it an unpatriotic act of treason!

Just hope Belgium beat the USA in the next round. If the USA do go on and win the tournament if will forever be tarnished by the corruption surrounding the red card decision. If the red card is overturned then so should all the other ones given in this tournament so that all countries are treated equally.

Did Trump bribe or blackmail Infantino? And just what does Trump know about football, if anything? He probably has never tried to play - after all, his infamous bone spurs prevented him from serving in Vietnam.

And boy, was he heartbroken about that..........

Well this doesn’t surprise me and ‘yes’ I think the US manager should keep Balogun on the bench if he has a backbone that surpasses his wish to win the World Cup.
But I won’t hold my breath.
If the US wins the game against Belgium they will have done so fraudulently.

Trump has admitted he didn't know what a red card meant shows how much he knows about football, even I know and I don't follow football.

FIFA now stands for Fixing it for America.

Trum[ know what a red card is and if America wins their next match it will be well deserved and if they lose, the match will have been fixed!!!

oops Trump doesn't know .......

Well it looks as if the Olympics could be interesting. Shall we see the USA winning Gold Medals like the world has never seen before?

Looking forward to Trump taking his place as a referee tonight in the USA v Belgium match.
Nothing would surprise me!

Oh no. Back in 1984 when USSR and other communist countries boycotted the Los Angeles Olympics I recall a song going round about it giving the US chance to win all the gold medals.
Others would have to be content with a bronze or maybe a silver.

If the American public have an ounce of integrity they will be condemning this interference and consequent decision. Surprisingly I’m not holding my breath, winning even by cheating seems OK. Come on Belgium, England showed the way to overcome the odds against!

Allegedly the Epstein files have come in useful again.
If true, those files are the gift that keeps on giving.

YES!
Belgium make light work of USA to set up quarter-final tie with Spain

Well done Belgium 👏👏👏

Do watch the highlights in the link!

USA 1 Belgium The Orange Baby will struggle to change that score to show the USA actually won.

I think you could call it karma

He will complain that the spectators made his player feel uncomfortable and unable to play to his best.
Karma!

Well done Belgium. The winners despite Trumps efforts to fix the game.
😄

Well FIFA are a joke.
I think there should be an investigation into game fixing after the World Cup.
Also makes me wonder how Trump won the election????

I think UEFA are on the war path.

Well USA are out of the competition now anyway. Or will Trump ask for a replay!!
