Donald Trump Praises FIFA for Reversing Folarin Balogun’s Suspension

Donald Trump thinks FIFA finally made the right call … and Team USA is the big winner.

FIFA reversed the Americans’ top goal scorer Folarin Balogun‘s one-game suspension on Sunday ahead of the USMNT’s World Cup showdown with Belgium … and Trump wasted no time taking a victory lap on Truth Social, thanking FIFA for “reversing a great injustice.”

The move means Balogun — who was tossed during Team USA’s 2-0 win over Bosnia-Herzegovina after a controversial red-card — is now eligible to play Monday in Seattle. That’s massive for the Americans, considering he’s been one of their biggest weapons all tournament.

FIFA’s decision was a stunning twist … especially after the suspension was initially believed to be automatic and unappealable. Instead, the punishment was suspended and Balogun is reportedly now on probation for a year.

Of course, Trump jumping in adds a whole new layer to the soccer drama … with POTUS making it clear he sees this as FIFA correcting a bad call on the world stage.

Then again, Trump had another headline to keep tabs on … himself. Check out the footage from Saturday’s America 250 celebration … showing him watching Fox News coverage of his own appearance before taking the stage.

You’ll want to catch Bologan’s triumphant return … and you’re in luck.
