Trump’s latest financial disclosure shows FIFA President Gianni Infantino gave him 10 tickets, valued at $15,000, to last year’s FIFA Club World Cup final at MetLife Stadium.
Infantino has said Trump is expected to help present the World Cup trophy on July 19, deepening his highly visible role in the 2026 tournament as the U.S. enters the knockout round.
Infantino’s close ties to Trump are facing new scrutiny from European lawmakers who say FIFA’s Peace Prize for Trump and Infantino’s public praise raise neutrality concerns.

10 tickets, $15,000? I call bullshit. 10 tickets are closer to $25,000 for shit. Premium seats woukd go for ten times that.

Planes, tickets, etc. He will accept anything. It’s all illegal, but I’m sure Congress will hold him accountable. /s
