U.S. President Donald Trump today, during one of his numerous self-absorbed “interactions” with the press, suddenly revealed a complete lack of awareness on the topic of football.

“I didn’t know about that. Is it true? — said Trump at a joint briefing with FIFA President Gianni Infantino. — I am not the boss on this issue. He is the boss. Peace is possible, and participation in the World Cup could be a good incentive for resolving the conflict.”
