I know satire and parody died a long time ago but #Trump stealing the FIFA trophy Chelsea won yesterday still had me checking sources repeatedly.

Trump Kept Gold Club World Cup Trophy for Himself So FIFA Had to Give the Winners a Replica

Trump took every opportunity to make the new, expanded soccer tournament all about himself.

@brianvastag Goldfinger:

"Such a cold finger
Beckons you to enter his web of sin…

Golden words he will pour in your ear
But his lies can't disguise what you fear…

he love's only gold."

@brianvastag OK but keep in mind that FIFA is such a morally bankrupt organization that they may have simply been bribing him.

@brianvastag Everyone in that picture failed a significant moral test.

I'll be booing this club for the rest of my life.
