And then the only countries involved are Mexico, USA and Canada. Then Mexico beats the US, as is tradition.

But the final is in the US so they can just deny the visas

In that case, Mexico and Canada can have their own final, and Mexico can win, as is tradition.

Ah yes. Their own final. With blackjack and hookers

Much easier to do in countries that aren't the US.

The fact that so much of the Trump family is tied to gambling websites does make this extremely likely.

I always feel that's the final rip-off. We've all been watching it unfold, the dismantling of the USA for ego and corporate power and money, but literally gambling it away...

OTOH it's not the first time we all thought "it can't possibly get any worse than that" - and then it did.

In the final stage Trump will sell off parts of the US to Canada. All it will be left is the Bible belt which nobody else wants. Trump will be fine with that as he gets to keep his golf course, which is all he really cares about.

I could imagine that Putin would want Alaska back in the Final Auction

Since the World Cup is only like a 26 mile race, I hereby enter my genitals and I expect formative outcomes in the name of some fucker

It makes so much sense!

The only way the US would win at football is if their opponent was just random members of the crowd all of which were American and none of which knew the rules of football.

Except that would be boring to watch because there would be barely any detectable difference in skill level.
