@usmntonly We should not protect Infantino or hold any “soft power” on a global sport, especially when most people in this country don’t have any respect or understanding of this sport. The “keep politics out of sports crowd” is always silent when an opportunity to dickride Trump exists

@TaylorTwellman Trump admin and all their friends engaging in naked corruption, looting any remaining institutions they can before late stage corruption collapses on top of us all
