President Donald Trump has again dangled the prospect of moving the World Cup out of Seattle next year while calling Mayor-elect Katie Wilson “another beauty” and a “very, very liberal-slash-communist mayor.”
Prompted by an Oval Office reporter, who asked Monday about Wilson’s election, Trump made what appears to be his first acknowledgment of Seattle’s incoming mayor.
With FIFA President Gianni Infantino by his side, he said of Seattle hosting the games, “If we think there’s going to be the sign of any trouble, I would ask Gianni to move that to a different city. We have a lot of cities who would love to have it number one, and will do it very safely.”
To be clear the barking yam has no control over where any World Cup match is held. FIFA decided that several years ago and signed contracts with the host cities. If the screaming orange clown tried to move the matches from Seattle there would be a lawsuit which the administration would surely loose as once again the contract is with the city of Seattle and not the U.S. government.
