33. Poor and controversial officiating has been a part of sports as long as there have been sports. It's a part of the game

Sometimes the refereeing is more memorable then the actual game. These aren't life and death world changing activites, it's supposed to be entertainment. If Trump had stayed out of it, USA would forever be know for having this game stolen from them by a poor call of a referee. Their loss would have gone down in history and be memorable. "But for that bad man (referee) they surely would have won the entire World Cup!" Trump and fans would say.

Now, they're just losers. They choked. Bye. Go home.
