quote:

President Donald Trump suggested during Friday's World Cup draw that soccer should be the real "football" in the United States and that the NFL should find another name for its sport.

Trump was on stage at the Kennedy Center in Washington alongside FIFA president Gianni Infantino, Mexico president Claudia Sheinbaum and Prime Minister of Canada Mark Carney ahead of the group stage drawing for the 2026 World Cup, which will be co-hosted by three countries.

The three heads of state then took part in a ceremonial drawing of their respective nations into the groups. The U.S. will play out of Group D, Canada out of Group B and Mexico will be in Group A and host the opening match of the tournament June 11 in Mexico City.

How about, "the sport where you don't use your feet except for on punts, field goals, and kickoffs"?

"Soccer" is the world's most popular sport. I've always wondered why America snaked its name. It makes no sense.

Trump caving to the FIFA globalists?

Yeah, frick that.

American football will always be known as football and soccer will always be known as soccer in the US.....the preferred sport of EU Wokesters, 3rd world nations and man bun effeminates.

This is inaccurate. Soccer comes from Association Football (to differentiate their rule set from rugby football), shortened to assoc, with players called assocers. This evolves into soccer. Even in the UK, and their various Commonwealth nations, soccer is used as often as football.

That sounds like some commie shite. I can only think of one person in college football that thinks that’s a good idea.

Both "soccer" and "football" are words that originated in England, chief.

Get back at me when there is some sort of equivalent of a World Cup for American Football. I'm sorry folks don't like it, but Trump is right here.

So, DT is playing to a crowd so that they'll like him. Shocker.
