You may have bitten the onion, my friend.
The president of the united states really steals? no dignity
Trump is Smaug.
I like that he closed his eyes. It's the little kid logic of, "If I can't see you, you can't see me." Truly, a stable genius.
who knew I could expand my blocklist with so many maga supporting shitbags just on this post alone!
Look over there while I distract you from the fact that I'm a president that rapes children.
When you’re a star they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the medal. You can do anything.
I'm all for dunking on him but it looks like he was given it, and I haven't seen any other evidence suggesting the medal was intended to be given back: https://youtu.be/b5I2adhIn7U?t=174
Fake news isn't less bad just because it's "your side" doing it
Ask Cole Palmer what he thinks since this was a totally normal thing to do and not in anyway confusing.
Also I'm 100% calling bullshit and this gift was to save face. Chelsea players we're pissed he was even there.
This doesn't contradict the article. It explicitly says he was given the medal by Infantino in the subheader and the article body.
Pretty sure the ad guy for the Independent website posted this.
Dementia. Not that he hasn't always been like this, speaking from experience, it just sometimes makes the true self harder to hide for better and for worse.
I don't think so, Putin did a similar thing with a Superbowl ring years ago. It's an alpha male thing, like his handshakes and all the other bullshit he does.
a true alpha male if I ever saw one.
He's a thief? Wow, the person who steals from a charity is a thief!!?!! Anyways you guys better watch him around top secret documents, you don't want to steal any of them (and then store them in an unlocked toilet next to a fax machine so he can easily fax them to other hostile governments for money or just because he's an imbecile).
Need another source on this. Nowhere else is reporting this
It's fake. Kinda? He didn't steal a medal.

Apparently he did give a fake/new trophy and the FIFA gave him the real one/old one.
Yeah I mean it's not like FIFA has kissed up to a wealthy dictator in the past at all...
I hope all Americans are proud of the man they keep as their president.
Every time I see him in public, all I can think of is how I'm so hoping to see his head explode from a sniper's bullet. I don't think that could be described as Pride.
