PeterRS Posted 6 hours ago Posted 6 hours ago Well, he didn't walk off with the Nobel Peace Prize which clearly rankled him. But now he does have a peace prize - the inaugural FIFA Peace Prize. The what? FIFA for those who do not follow soccer is the international body governing the game, best known to most as football. Next year sees the World Cup - held every four years - being staged in three countries, one being the USA. As long as you are prepared to risk being hauled into jail and deported by one of Trump's ICE agents, you might even be able to fly there to see a match. But the FIFA President, a very unremarkable man named Giovanni Infantino, came up with the idea of having a FIFA Peace Prize. Why? Only Infantino - and perhaps Trump - know why. Allegedly it is to be awarded to a person who has "taken exceptional and extraordinary actions for peace" and "united people across the world". And of all the people who could and should have been considered for such a prize, the groveller Infantino has kissed the ass of Trump and considered him the best qualified to receive the award. If anyone major personality was less deserving of the award, I cannot think of him or her. What a total joke! https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/cy5gw0wv5zqo stevenkesslar 1 Quote
