Yet now Trump is showing the world once again that America doesn’t play by the rules. We don’t accept losses and we don’t accept referees’ calls. 

I don’t know about you, but Trump’s intervention in the World Cup has ruined the game for me. 

How can anyone ever again trust that the United States has won a game fair and square? How can the fine athletes representing us rejoice in a victory when the president of the United States has used his political power to change a referee’s call?
