19. The real question is,

why did a "reporter" ask him if he was going to participate in the World Cup?

Because seriously, he's 79 years old, was never a professional athlete, and currently has the athletic prowess, physic, and coloring of a cantaloupe. Who are these reporters with their nonsensical, bullshit questions?

You have an opportunity to question the President. War? Plague? Epstein?

No.

"Good golly, sir, will you be thrilling us all with a display of your exquisite manliness by showing up those much less virile, so-called, professional athletes by winning the World Cup all by yourself?" (Little bit of drool falls from their trembling lip)
