Thursday, September 11, 2025 - Football
fans have called for the United States to be stripped of its World Cup hosting
duties next summer after conservative activist and influential Donald Trump
ally, Charlie Kirk, was sh0t de@d.
Kirk, 31, was hosting an event at Utah Valley
University on Wednesday, September 10, when he was sh0t in the neck while
speaking onstage.
He was rushed to a local hospital as doctors tried to save
him, but President Trump later announced that the influential MAGA
commentator had passed away.
With the World Cup set to kick off next summer, many soccer
fans expressed concern at the tournament going ahead in America.
'With the broad day light shooting and killing of Charlie
Kirk, America should not be allowed by FIFA to co-host the World Cup,' one
fan wrote on X.
'How will the World Cup be held in an unsafe country after
the scenes of Charlie Kirk's murder?,' a second asked.
'The World Cup cannot go ahead in America, for everyone's
safety,' a third added.
A fourth said: 'After seeing the Charlie Kirk
video, I don't think America hosting the world cup is a nice and wise idea,'
While the 2026 World Cup will see games staged in Mexico,
Canada, and the USA, the vast majority of the games will be held in the United
States.
Of the 16 host cities, 11 are in the United States, while
all of the games from the quarterfinals onward will be in the USA. The final
will be held at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Kirk was a close ally of President Trump, who honored the
Turning Point USA founder following his de@th.
'The Great, and even Legendary, Charlie Kirk, is dead,'
Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.
'No one understood or had the Heart of the Youth in the
United States of America better than Charlie. He was loved and admired by ALL,
especially me, and now, he is no longer with us. Melania and my Sympathies go
out to his beautiful wife Erika, and family. Charlie, we love you!'
