Former U.S. President Donald Trump has made headlines once again, this time threatening to impose a 100% tariff on all Russian imports if he returns to office. In the same breath, he controversially claimed he would keep the Club World Cup trophy for himself, sparking mixed reactions.
Trump’s Hardline Stance on Russia
During a recent rally, Trump declared that Russia must face severe economic consequences for its geopolitical actions.
“We’re going to hit Russia with a 100% tariff—no more games,” Trump said, doubling down on his aggressive trade policies. Critics argue that such measures could escalate tensions, while supporters applaud his tough stance.
Controversy Over Club World Cup Trophy
In a lighter yet puzzling moment, Trump boasted about keeping the Club World Cup trophy, comparing it to his past business victories.
“It’s a beautiful trophy, and I deserve to keep it. Just like my other wins,” he remarked, though it remains unclear how he obtained it or if his claim holds any legitimacy. Sports analysts and fans have since questioned the statement, with many calling it another one of Trump’s exaggerated boasts.
Public and Political Reactions
