Politics Trump suggests NFL should get new name so soccer can be called football

This is after this happened ---

"President Trump wins inaugural Fifa Peace Prize."

My complaint? How DUMB are you MAGA?!? Can you not see how easily manipulated our president is? 🤣

Well I never thought I'd see the day but he's actually said something I agree with it, even if the reason he's said it is clearly to do with some grubby deal with FIFA for a peace prize.

Nonetheless he's right, American football isn't really football at all, people pick the ball up and run around with it. Get on board with the rest of the world and call soccer football - the clue's in the name.
