After Board Members and Top Executives Launch Official Investigation Into Award Process, Claiming Award Was Unilaterally Approved by President Gianni Infantino Without Board Consent.

The whole fucking thing is a joke. Let him keep it, the gold-coloured film will start peeling off the plastic soon enough.

It's an award they made up just to give to Trump, so I don't see them rescinding it.

The board is as corrupt as the president and they know this will line their pockets.

Nah, can't be. Would be cool, comical even, but nah.

I'm sorry, is this real? If it is that's fucking hilarious.
Give back the pacification trinket!

They should give it to Obama. Or Jethro Tull.
LunaAtlas
OMG, hope Obama get a bigger and better one of pure gold. He will mobilize the military on Obama.

This is the most perfect reaction ever. Thank you. :-)

As corrupt as FIFA is, and there has to be an ulterior motive for the award, there's a part of me that thinks Infantino wanted to mock the cheeto but didn't realize the ego was so big he embraced the award as real

World Cup teams and fans will be coming from a lot of different countries, including some under Trump's travel bans. It's a bribe to keep him from closing the US borders to them.

good luck getting a giant gold trophy back from him

Is there a source for this? I don't see anything about fifa rescinding the award.

“For his part, Mokhiber, the former UN official, said the ‘vulgar’ prize to Trump must be rescinded.” Is the only thing I found in the article about it and it’s just that one person’s opinion. Nothing official
LunaAtlas
IMGUR isn't meant to be a News Channel.
RubberMonkeys
Yet you're literally posting news. Well fake news since there is no proof fifa is doing what you claim.

No where in that article does it say fifa is revoking the award and asking for it back.
LitterBoxKing
Me, neither. This is a horseshit post.

"The New York Times and others reported that senior FIFA officials were surprised by the announcement and that the prize’s rollout was hastily organised, suggesting internal surprise at how quickly the new honour was established and awarded." But no talk of revoking. https://factually.co/fact-checks/sports/has-fifa-awarded-a-formal-peace-prize-9e862b

as much as I -want- to believe it, like you said, literally nobody is reporting this, and this -would- be news.

that really doesn't say anything other than what people are saying in general - that it reeks of corruption. There was nothing about a revocation.
