JD Vance attempted a charm offensive on Tuesday, and failed with the charm while succeeding in being offensive.
It happened during an announcement that former Donald Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani’s son, Andrew Giuliani, would be leading a task force for the 2026 World Cup, which will take place in the United States, Canada and Mexico next year.
Rather than stoke excitement for a global event that could be a tourism cash cow for North America, Vance decided to take a different approach — and joked about deporting the potential thousands of tourists visiting the U.S. for the occasion.
It’s apparently also in Mexico and Canada, so you can still visit matches there.
Would be funny if the stadiums in Mexico and Canada were chock full while those in the US were half empty. You’d hope they’d finally get the message.
They’d just say “soccer is woke anyway. Football ura” it’s a cult and I hate it here
