It clearly doesn’t make sense that the FIFA would spend a small fortune on creating a trophy, only to give the winner a replica. It is concerning to me that you still take Trump’s word at face value, no matter how obvious and self-serving the lie.
I have no doubt that FIFA bribes everyone, including Trump. It’s just in this particular instance that, if it was their intent to bribe Trump with a trophy, they would have created a second one with real gold instead of giving Chelsea a replica. It seems much more likely that Trump just stole it and FIFA didn’t raise a stink about it in order to preserve relations.

Do you have any idea how insanely corrupt and nonsensical FIFA is?

At the same time it’s usually a safe bet to give FIFA no benefit of the doubt whatsoever
