King Charles should call Infantino about last nights England red card

Both players were going for the ball, and it was the soccer ball itself that raised the players heal high enough to cause his cleat to impact the shin of the Mexico player.

Hell, why not have your head of state call for EVERY missed call, or "questionable" call.

When I was in the Navy, there were a few occasions where I could have made a few phonecalls to get around regulations to benefit myself. Should I have?

How about your local bank manager? Your kids football coach? It's "bullshit" that they have to limit practice time during 115 degree heat indexes, right? It's just a stupid rule. Who do I call to overturn it?

Thank God Russia isn't in the World Cup. Their requests for "special" rulings usually include a 5Th floor window.

Just to be clear. This is NOT about whether or not it was a valid penalty, or whether you are a fan of the USA...I sure am "USA. USA, USA"!

That's not the issue. The minute Donnie Dipshit picked up the fucking phone, it stopped being about that.

Its become just another fucking Birth Certificate, "rigged" elections, "fine people on both-sides", "never raped an underage child, but if I did" decent into the destruction of civil society shitshow.

Now, as Mr Gump said; "and that's all I've got say about that".

I suspect we have all known two-year-olds who behave like this shit-stain. By the time they're four years old, most of them have come to realize a sense of shame and how belittling it is. By six, many of them have gained some social skills!

But not all. Including this yet-to-toddler.

Has there ever been such a total wuss out front for us, wholly unaware? Jerry Lewis did it for laughs, sure (thanks, I guess, France), but this is a truly remarkable display.

and told him; "you weak pussy, you should gouge their eyes out too".

That's the only way a child could grow into this monstrosity.
