The president was given the medal to look at by Gianni Infantino while handing others out to the winning squad, though Trump later tucked it into his suit blazer

      It’s fake. Kinda? He didn’t steal a medal.

      Apparently he did give a fake/new trophy and the FIFA gave him the real one/old one.
