Here's what Donald Trump posted on his social media platform a few weeks back. The Iran national soccer team is welcome to the World Cup, but I really don't believe it is appropriate that they be there for their own life and safety. Thank you for your attention to this matter, Donald J. Trump.
Now, Iran qualified for the FIFA World Cup when Donald Trump says they shouldn't show up for their own life and safety. The president of the United States saying that about another country's football team or soccer team. I don't know how you can interpret that statement.
any way other than a threat that he's going to try to kill them or send people to hurt them or that their lives will be at risk. Now, one of the other steps that Donald Trump has taken is Paolo Zampolli, who's in the Epstein files. He was the one who introduced Melania to Donald Trump back in the late 1990s in the Kit Kat Club.
Remember, he's the one whose girlfriend, Amanda Ungaro, is saying she's going to go public with all of the dirt she knows about Zampolli. and Trump. She's been deported to Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. She alleges that Zampolli worked with ICE in order to expedite her deportation. Zampolli denies it.
Zampolli currently holds an ambassadorship title in the United States, and he's like an ambassador of cultural events within the United States. And one of the things that he's been working with Trump to do in this ambassadorship position
Italy, who didn't qualify for the FIFA World Cup with Iran and replace them so that Iran doesn't get to play in the World Cup and instead Italy gets to play in the World Cup, even though Italy didn't qualify. Not only is that offensive to everybody, Italy's pissed off about it. It's like embarrassing. Italy's like, we didn't make the tournament. We don't deserve to be in the FIFA tournament.
