In reply to the discussion: Trump Kept Gold Club World Cup Trophy for Himself So FIFA Had to Give the Winners a Replica [View all]Ocelot II
(125,925 posts)61. He can't keep it if it's worth more than $375, but who's going to stop him from taking it with him?
Gifts given to presidents that are valued above $375 are supposed to be transferred to the National Archives, though the president can choose to purchase them. Trump won't do that, though.

Tell those divvy berks to go to The Den (Millwall's home pitch) and tell the nice lads there that they are commies.

Trump and Infantino have a lot in common, FIFA is one of the most corrupt organizations in the world.

Trump doesn't even get it: the trophy is what you receive for winning...there is no original and replica

Like the Purple Heart he snagged from that MAGA veteran...Trump actually believed he suffered a wound in battle.

This is weird, because "Infantino" sounds like a plausible nickname for Trump himself.
