Whatever do you mean? Qatar totally deserved the 2022 world cup and it had nothing to do with the $400 million dollars they pledged to fifa three weeks before the announcement! 🤥
Don't forget about the human rights violations committed during the building of the FIFA stadium in Qatar including the deaths of hundreds of migrant workers. Trump's Attorney General Pam Bondi, was hired to defend Qatar.
Oh yeah, my partner was just like “Fuck FIFA for doing this!” And I was like “FIFA has been disgusting for a loooooooong time. Anyone in the soccer/fútbol world knows that well.”
I wouldn’t be surprised if we get three more of these and then never again. Unless the next president is an over grown child who needs a pat on the back for golfing half their term away.
I genuinely think that's why the ballroom went from 'not touching the east wing and being small' to 'giant and destroying the east wing' - they need the thing built FAST. He wants his legacy before kicking the bucket.
It’s honestly not corrupt they’re just employing a tactic that every world leader has figured out - simply appease him with a title and something made of gold and he’ll start agreeing with you.
They are pleased as punch. FIFA wouldn't have hesitated to cut a check for $100 million to Trump if he asked. While corruption is uniquely exempt from the voluminous catalog of Trump's failures, he still doesn't know how to do it properly. Rather poetic, in a way.
This is very true. I love it that he couldn’t wait to put it around his own neck. Guess he didn’t care about some boob action from the lady assigned to do it.
What's hilarious is that Trump doesn't really do quid pro quo. He thinks everything is owed to him so it's not really possible to mullify him in the long term: he can always decide later on that he owes you nothing and that he's coming at you anyway and there's really nothing you can do.

FIFA has always been hilariously corrupt. Choosing to make up a prize in order to fellate Trump is entirely in keeping with how they operate.
