    Guy who tried to cheat for his team and they immediately got brutally manhandled ends up getting booed hard later, then dementia-walks onto the stage to try and take the spotlight making it about himself?

    I couldn’t find anything specific but someone did mention he went off on one of his verbal diarrhea rambles after the US got trounced… calling it a tournament of losers and how the tourney shouldnt finish in the US?

    Is MAGA trying to say he didn’t get booed? Even people who are deeply invested in the cult have to realize a lot of people don’t like him.

      There’s a non insignificant portion of them that live in the middle of bumfuck nowhere and would never think about going somewhere where there are enough human beings to see a large enough sample size of opinions for anything outside their bubble to be observed.

      Im more shocked that some of those cultists even knew the World Cup was happening

      Maybe. It might be better option than the recent talking points I saw on Youtube about Lord Farquaad from Shrek being a “good authortarian ruler” because he “prioritized his city” and “was deporting illegals”.

      “A lot of libtards, commies, and towel head terrorists!”

      /s

      GOP has appealed to the authority of “the silent majority” for going on 100 years. Post-Evangelical churches, aka christo fascist churches, have also fostered an “us vs them” culture. The non-biblical phrase, “be in the world but no of thew world” is a staple.

      “Everyone (who matters) loves trump” is easier to lie about than “the majority of people love trump” Because the latter requires quantification. But if “everyone loves the dictator” you simply can write off every exception as invalid instead of quantifying them.

      The key is thought termination. Close the loop before any pesky numbers or original thoughts get in. Thats why they all have the same talking points unless you can get to them before MAGA-Steam-Media tells them what to think and they literally can’t form a sentence.

      Are and have, every time. He was booed at FIFA and at NBA game, but he said it was “mostly cheers” despite all evidence to the contrary.

    Dump doesn’t care. Attention good or bad is still attention and that is what he wants.

    Ignore the ugly fucker and you’ll see him melt down.

    Funny how he can fail this spectacularly at an event where he wasn’t even playing. Winning team, losing team, and somehow Donald Chump in third place.

    Of course he got booed. Spain hates him and Venezuela fans knew the Trump curse. Trump was there for Argentina which meant Argentina would lose
