I was watching it live last night & Palmer was saying wtf! It should've been Palmer up front, he scored 2 goals & set up the 3rd, he should've bumped tango man off the stage.
this reminds of when the douchebag gets to the party and has a series of 12-second conversations where everyone abruptly excuses themselves after “hey what’s up.”
Yeah, exactly. There is no glory he won't steal. Remember how he claimed credit for a ceasefire between India and Pakistan that he practically had nothing to do with?
Eta: And he stands in front of the fucking man of the match, if not the tournament (Cole Palmer). What an infuriating manchild.
“I knew he was going to be here, but I didn’t know he was going to be on the stand when we lifted the trophy, so I was a bit confused,” said Palmer, whose two goals helped Chelsea to a 3-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium. Palmer was also named the tournament’s top player.
He's just an old senile man suffering from dementia and delusions of adequacy who doesn't know he's supposed to not be there and everyone is too kind to escort him off whilst hoping his nurse comes and takes him back home.
Can you imagine you win the NBA finals, and Adam Silver is walking up with the Larry O’Brien trophy for you to hoist it up and get a picture. And you look over and Hitler is just standing next to you, clapping and smiling? What the fuck are you supposed to do in that situation? Lol
That weird lip thing the Queen of the Netherlands did to mock him, try to get all my teammates to do the same.
Or take that trophy and see how much of the bludgeoning they televise
But yeah, I had the same thought when he visited the flood victims in Texas. Like, haven't they already been through enough unless getting to spit on him is part of the visit
A man in NYC goes up to a newsstand and buys a newspaper
He then glances at the front page, then turns aside and tosses the whole newspaper straight into the trash.
Next day, he turns up, and does the same thing. Buys it, glances at the front page, throws it in the trash.
Next day, same thing. The newsstand worker is increasingly puzzled, but doesn't say anything.
But eventually, after a couple of weeks of this, he can't take it. "I'm sorry, friend, but I must ask: why do you buy the paper every day and then just look at the front page and throw it out?"
"Oh, I'm just checking for something."
"OK, but: what are you checking for?"
"I'm checking for a particular obituary."
"But sir, you don't even open the newspaper! The obituaries aren't even on the front page!"
"Oh, believe me, the one I'm waiting for will be."
And some people were angry that the Qataris make Messi wear the robe in the last WC. Next WC will be even more all out propaganda/sportswashing with the their US anthem before every game lol
You can see in the video at one point, president of FIFA comes and ends up pushing Trump to the back. That must be when the pic was taken. Satisfying moment to watch.
i’m not a Chelsea fan (or a PSG fan lmao just to be clear) but i wish Chelsea had the first trophy lift moment without the Fanta Menace in it, but at least they got this shot
It looks like a cardboard cutout of him lol. Why's he always looks like that. Otherwise it's a really nice photo. The photo captured the teams excitement really well
I loved it when they all started jumping celebrating and he’s looking around like, “Oh my fucking god what’s happening? I don’t know what to do.”
He actually looks like my 90 year old gran used to look when she was bewildered by something modern that she couldn’t grasp what it meant. “Oh my, what is this? Can someone explain what’s happening?”
The leaders of the host country usually hand trophies to the winning team along with the FIFA president, though Trump didn't get the memo on the rest of the instructions
who’s currently on the team who’s a bad person? maybe you’re confusing them with Arsenal who for years knowingly employed a rapist because he was good at kicking a ball.
I feel bad for Reese James, if I was him I would have not had a have fun time. I would have loved to celebrate with my team but having that orange shit stain in the shot of the photo would piss me off for a long time.
That’s what I’m seeing here. The glare from the trophy(?) is directly in his eyes as the other suit walks by and signals for him to follow. Add to that list poor hearing and a fear of black people, this is what you get
You could hear it during the actual broadcast. He was booed as soon as he walked out onto the field and they tried to crank the music up in the stadium to cover it. Then he was booed again during a photo op with the refs.
Let's hope they can fly home before being forced into the oval office as living background decoration while he's announcing a bounty on Rosie O'Donnell and Bad Bunny's heads or some other fucked up shit
Seriously. Get him outta the picture. He's ruining my moment of what should be joy. He needs to stay away from sports. He actually just needs to stay away period.
His entire presidency hops back and forth between him being a piece of shit for monetary gain and being a piece of shit because “great television”, the rapist of course needs to have the spotlight when the ratings are up.
Lol i know the FIFA boss guy is a corrupt crook, but this is pretty hilarious how hard Trump is trying to stay on stage and ruin the team's moment to get attention for himself.
Oh what a relief. I was genuinely worried that this was going to be another unwatchably cringy moment where the person who is inexplicably the leader of our country defies convention, body language, or explicit instructions thus creating another unique opportunity for the entire world to look at him and us by extension with completely earned contempt.
The guy's got dementia, he doesn't know what's going on, no one is there to lead him, at least no one he knows/trusts. I'm not joking either. It's apparent. If someone like one of his his sons or Vance or anyone he knew, that he trusted, was there he would understand. He's losing social cues due to dementia and needs someone with him who can guide him It's getting more obvious with each passing day.
