    This Loser loves adulation so much that he can even get a thrill from stealing someone else’s glory. He wasn’t even rooting for Spain, he bad mouthed them a few days before, and Argentina has always been the favorite country for fugitive war criminals, and he already bought his way in with a $40 billion dollar bailout as American families were having their food assistance cut. Clearly Argentina was his team.

    But Spain won, and it’s their glory he had to bask in, so he stood there as the crowd cheered for them, and pretended that it was for him.

    What a Loser, on an International scale.

      The oligarchs doesn’t worship him. They find him useful because he can be bought to allow them to do literally anything. They all hate each other, but allow each other to exist as long as they are useful to each other.

      The only ones who worship him are the non-billionaire morons who are his voters.

      I would say it’s a useful relationship. Like hanging out with your boss at the Christmas party and fake laughing at his dumb shit.

      And if your boss smelled like shit

      They don’t worship him, they despise him.

      But they’ve completely debased themselves for personal profit.

    This is now the second time that Gianni Infantino had to politely coax Trump away from a celebrating winning soccer team before his inappropriate and unwanted presence ruins the moment.
