Fox Sports 1s marketing of Saturdays Mexico-United States Concacaf playoff game fired up American fans in an unintended way Friday with a promotional commercial using comments made by Donald J. Trump on the presidential campaign trail as a way to lead cheers for the United States national team.
(VIDEO-AND-TWEET-AT-LINK)
The video was promoted as a response to an earlier TV Azteca ad that used Trumps words as a way to promote Mexico in the game. But Foxs choice of Trump to promote the United States team seemed, at best, questionable. He has built his campaign for president around anti-immigration positions, especially those from Mexico, and has described Mexicans who have entered the United States illegally as rapists and criminals.
In the video, interspersed with clips of the United States and Mexican teams in action, Trump is seen saying, Our country has tremendous people, tremendous potential, these are the best and the finest, and bigger, better and stronger, and we will make American great again. He is also quoted saying, I love the Mexican people, and they have amazing spirit.(continued)

I can hear the leftist pin heads exploding all over. I encourage all FReepers to watch the video. It is hilarious. LOL.

US soccer fans — Yeah, all three of them.
I thought it was pretty well done.
Dos a cero, yet again. Go USA!
“anti-immigration positions, especially those from Mexico”
against illegal invaders, mostly from Mexico
Soccer is a homo game.
I thought it was pretty good!
Faggot Foot Ball.
Keep thinking that, FRiend. No need for more competition on the field of play.

Thereby proving that US soccer fans are about as bright as we thought they were. It IS amusing that FOX has no idea about the demographic, though.
The Trump snowball just continues rolling, gaining mass and speed, and the MSM “warming” isn’t affecting it a bit.
Every venue where he appears, he is met with enthusiasm and glowing support as he speaks in down-to-earth true and simple concepts, to each person in the throng, seemingly in a one-to-one, heart-to-heart manner.
Washington, DC’s worst nightmare; a person who speaks the truth and plainly lays out his intentions, while openly displaying the wherewithall and the chops to make it happen.

Fabulous. A video ad promoting soccer, which also gives Trump a non-political boost on his path to the White House. Nothing succeeds like success.
Trump has not built his campaign on anti immigration. He is against illegal immigration.
What fantastic news! Maybe they will move to Europe where they belong, or even Cameroon.
I had to Google that rather obscure acronym.
This is the reason the video was made ...
Meh.
Soccer fans irritate the rest of us.
A lot.
