Kick Gianni Infantino out of FIFA's front door
To FIFA President Gianni Infantino and the Trump administration’s credit, the recently concluded soccer World Cup was a huge success. The introduction of absurd, greed-motivated water breaks notwithstanding, the addition of more teams was welcomed by fans. It made for a more unpredictable and exciting tournament. Considering FIFA’s gross mishandling of ticket sales in advance of the tournament, the end result was a manifestly positive one.
