Can't hold a World Cup in a country where the dictator's secret police are executing peaceful protesters in the streets.

Good job I never want to go to the US because Donald Trump is fascist, and so is anyone who willingly serves in his administration. The US should be ostracised internationally, and if FIFA won't move the World Cup, then teams should boycott it and play their own international competition elsewhere.

If the leaders of Russia in 2018 or Qatar in 2022 had been talking so brazenly about using it's military to take over an independent territory, I suspect we would've been talking about a boycott of the #FIFAWorldCup. So why not now that Trump is doing it? It's his Berlin Games.

Because this does NOT add up!
No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies…

The "don't have an extra kid if you can't afford it" brigade get awfully upset when you suggest they don't stay in their £2m house if they can't afford it, don't they?

It’s obvious that the Trump/Putin #Ukraine negotiations will just be a list of what Putin wants, presented as a diplomatic victory by Trump, right? Then he’ll act all surprised and get offended when most of the rest of the world laughs at it.
