People will think I'm crazy for this take, but I'm a big believer in the psychological impact of narratives on teams. Yes, Belgium looked so much better tonight and we looked lost. But this team had a boatload of good vibes behind them, and in the last 48 hours that vanished, and replacing it was a story of implicit political corruption that turned them into the bad guys, or at least the beneficiary of the corruption. You can't tell me that doesn't put pressure on the team, change the vibe, and take a psychological toll that impacted what happened on the field. American fans, serious and casual, should be pissed at this interference. We overturned a red card and our reward was losing what made this team so much fun until now.
Trump's red card intervention has done such a massive disservice to the US football team & American fans.
He's politicised the team by tainting them with his corruption.
The rest of the world is rooting for Belgium tonight for political reasons. That's not how sport should be.
"I just want to find 11,780 votes," –Donald J. Trump
Isn’t it ironic that the guy caught on tape trying to overturn an election is the same guy screaming about mass voter fraud?
That’s the psychological voodoo Trump pulled on America. He convinced millions of people that a voting system that worked for generations suddenly became “broken” the moment he lost, and broken in a way only he could fix.
But Trump doesn’t fix systems. He breaks them, blames someone else, and then sells himself as the repairman.
Trump is the mass voter fraud.

MAGA will believe the Reflecting pool was vandalized with no video proof but deny an insurrection happened when it was on live television. These people are cult fanatics.
So, people have been asking me my thoughts on Trump’s mishandling of the Lincoln Memorial Reflection Pool.
My response.
Why isn’t Trump in prison for sexually assaulting children on Epstein’s perverted island?
If you touch water you are apprehended by police.
If you molest kids with Jeffrey Epstein you are moved to a luxury prison and considered for a pardon.
TRUMP’S AMERICA.
REPUBLICAN SEN. TILLIS: “What Freakin’ parallel universe did I wake up in? You’re telling me — if it’s true — damaging the reflecting pool lining is something Pirro wants to prosecute… yet they’re releasing people who pled guilty to assaulting officers?”
Tucker Carlson: I would not support the Republican party, there's no chance I would support the Republican party. How could I support a political party that is not loyal to the United States. I voted Republican my entire life, I have been a consistent defender for 35 years of the Republican party, but there is no defending this. I'm out
Donald Trump is just a symptom.
The disease is Fox"News," "News"max, and right-wing influencers funded by billionaires, a trillionaire, foreign propaganda, and media oligarchs who profit from keeping people angry, scared, and misinformed.
According to language that has been reported about MOU with Iran, there is:
🔴 NO mention of dismantling the nuclear program or the ballistic missile program.
🔴 NO commitment to ending support for Hamas, Hezbollah, or other terrorist organizations
But remarkably, the MOU with Iran reportedly includes:
🔴Immediate sanctions relief from the moment the MOU is signed. This means $3 BILLION a month into the coffers of Iran.
🔴A pledge of $100 billion in Iranian frozen assets being freed up based only on “progress” in negotiations
🔴The U.S. & others to arrange for a $300 billion reconstruction fund for Iran.
The reported MOU with Iran smacks of the kind of appeasement that we saw during the Obama years, the kind of appeasement that Joe Biden tried to accomplish and was ignored by the Iranians, and the kind of appeasement we categorically rejected during the first Trump administration.
Sheryl Crow speaks out after Trump’s UFC 250 event: “To stay quiet means to turn a blind eye. And so I am saying this. What happened last night on the lawn of the White House was disgraceful and void of decency. Powerful, rich people filled the lawn to watch a violent sport that ended with a vile and racist comment. All while the average American cannot afford healthcare, gas, and cost of living. Do not be fooled. This administration is corrupt and does not give a damn about the American people. It only cares about making money hand over fist at the expense and in spite of our democracy. If we continue to support this kind of distraction from reality, we are no better than them. Let's be better, America.”
I can’t stand Trump anymore. At all. Not the policies, not the posts, not the rallies, not the lies, none of it. Every single day there’s something new and I’m exhausted. Anyone else completely done with this moron?!?
Republicans are in charge because we promised:
to Make America Healthy Again.
to start No New Wars,
to put people above corporations,
to put America above foreign countries,
to release the Epstein files,
to not spy on citizens,
to eliminate fraud,
what the hell happened?!
