I think if the US wants to keep our integrity, Balogun needs to be seated against Belgium tonight. Our president might not have integrity, but We the People still do. It wasn’t intentional, but the US needs to accept and humbly abide by the same rules as our opponents or there is no real victory.

Flaring Balogun should sit this out. Trump has interfered with the world's most beautiful game. USA will win or loose with honor. I believe in our US team.
