Most of us know he needs to be in an institution because of his megalomania and fuckedupidness that makes him try to get into everything in hopes he finds something he doesn't fail at.
Edited to add: Yep Belgium was MUCH better team, so 'connected' to each other! I saw some passes were the passer didn't even turn to look if intended receiver was there, he KNEW. Amazing discipline and teamwork. Hope people coaching kids in the US will emulate Belgium's coaching techniques.

I too wanted the US to lose, and I have no problem saying it nor do I hate myself for it.

It was rigged, unfair, Biden's fault, crooked score keeper, no brains, low IQ, who has even heard of Belgium.
