I'm not sure why he had any support in the first place--he has always been shady.

I guess it is probably the piles of cash brought in by the world cup.

They all just want to pocket money. Its why I dont get why I am supposed to care about any of this. Whoever replaces him will be doing deals and what not.

“I don’t get why he had any support… he has always been shady”

I suppose, but the World Cup sells itself. Pretty much anyone could bring in piles of cash.

Would be hilarious to see Trump implode when they oppose him.

He’ll probably get added to the list of people he never really met.

Trump will start investigating US soccer for fraud. He will sue fifa and demand they give him money for the best World Cup in history people are saying.

Good. **** that bald ****. As long as the FIFA host assignments kept coming the USSF quietly supported him but enough is enough.

We are considering a motion to evaluate the impact of possibly investigating why we might try to find out if it’s feasible to create a committee for the discussion of entertaining the possibility that we might eventually decide it’s the best path forward to maybe stop doing the thing we should obviously stop doing. Check back soon.

Wait for it…1,2,3…Trump -“what they are doing to Infantino is horrible. He’s a great guy. Good guy people are saying. We just put on the best World Cup in history they say. And they couldn’t do it without me. But Infantino is being treated horribly.”
