This is obviously more evidence of the Trump curse! Which of these MAGA remote control jockeys want to sacrifice their football team's season by hosting Trump? How do we keep him away from the Summer Olympics??

I am so sick and tired of these whiny ass losers. The backlash is coming.

MAGA world has the memory of a fruit fly colony. Soccer? Who cares about soccer? Iran? What Iran? On to Cuba!

It seems that there are a not insignificant amount of adult Trumpers who, despite physically being middle aged, are still emotionally and mentally the age of 14.

The MAGA logical roller coaster you’re describing is indicative of something social desperate teenagers do in order to look “cool.” The MAGAs even use the same dumb terminology (“soccer is so gay”) that teenagers used in the 90s and 00s. Looking at the ages of these people and doing math, it’s obvious that they were those teenagers. 😂

This must have been at least as much fun to write as it was to read; check that, "even more fun to write . . .." On a more sober note, the warp that MAGAts display in their thinking and knee jerk propensities ever deepens my despair for the Republic. The quotes from their mouths and fingertips don't bear an iota of similarity to the quiet joy my immigrant parents from France and the Netherlands would display over where they now were and what they were able to do to contribute in their own ways to its support and advance.

Who ARE these troglodytes?? Might it be time to reconvene another House Unamerican Activities Committee? /s

To people who actually care about the poor old battered republic, one of the worst things about Donald's schlong-swinging at just the wrong moment in just the wrong way was that it undid the considerable good will that had, surprisingly, redounded to our credit during the World Cup, including the warm welcome Boston gave the Tartan Army and the immense kindness with which the community of Lawrence, Kansas received the Algerian soccer team that had made their base camp in Lawrence.

Ordinary Americans did a lot in just a few weeks to undo the awful damage Donald and his Magas have done to our reputation around the world over the last 18 months.

One little Donald phone call put an end to all that warmth and rehabilitation.

Is there an IQ point in any of these Maggies? I guess stupidity and meaness is the point.

They haven’t grown out of their teenage years.

Conservatives care about football again? I thought they swore off the NFL after Kaepernick, BLM, Bad Bunny, etc. Seems they are always crying about something.

If they didn't have contrived outrage, they'd have nothing.

Trumps move obviously got Belgium riled up, as it basically did every other country including ones not even in the World Cup anymore.

During the NFL season, are we going to have the White House booth review plays for the entire game or just the final 2 minutes?

What a bunch of thin skinned diaper babies.

This level of emptiness sounds miserable.

Always remember Trump is still the master of keeping himself in the news……Gin up the Base…….All news good or bad is ammunition for his brand……and of course as always he's moved on to verbally abusing NATO reps etc et al and the Conference he is at. So for all those that state he is slowing down, yes to some degree, however he is still the energizer bunny when stuff like the red card pop up.

Is Trump being modest about his soccer chops or is he unaware that caddies called him "Pele"?

This is a great post.

MAGA doesn’t like or care about the sport. They like the cheat. They like the crime.

They love whatever their felon president does, even if he jumps ship on what he was saying.
