DONALD TRUMP has entered the debate over who is the best footballer in history - before making an epic fail as he attempted to show of his knowledge of the game.
American President Trump tried to muscle in on the World Cup talk when he met his Portugal counterpart Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa this week.

Macron on Trump suggestion to leave EU: 'You can imagine my response'
The US president offered a better trade deal for France than with the rest of the EU.

French President Emmanuel Macron said Friday he would not comment directly on a report that Donald Trump suggested France leave the EU — but his commitment to Europe made clear what his response would have been.
Back in April, Trump proposed to Macron that France leave the EU, the Washington Post reported, citing two European officials, and said that if Paris left the bloc, it would win a bilateral trade deal superior to what the EU gets as a whole.
The White House did not dispute the officials’ account, but declined to comment, the Post reported.
“Things said behind closed doors should stay behind closed doors. I don’t think it’s ever good to repeat them,” Macron said at the end of a European Council summit in Brussels when asked about the report.
“But I know that the commitments I have made to Europe over a little more than a year now are sufficient to let you imagine my response if such a question had been posed,” said Macron, who was elected president in May last year.
Trump has been at war on various fronts with his European allies, trade in particular.
Earlier this week, Trump trashed the EU at a rally in North Dakota.
“We love the countries of the European Union. But the European Union, of course, was set up to take advantage of the United States,” Trump said at the event Wednesday. “And you know what, we can’t let that happen.”

See How Cats React to Trump. Its hilarious !
A Qualitative Research Study in Photos
This was the first focus group with younger cats who agreed to participate. *All cats were offered six months of free prime quality shrimp cat food as a reward for their time and input.
Since cats are highly intelligent, independent thinkers, and very communicative, we recruited a wide variety in different demographic and psychographic categories. All were shown videos of Trump giving speeches, at his rallies and press conferences, covering different political issues. Each was used to evoke cats’ reactions.
Our cat respondents’ were photographed as they watched.
NOTE: We had a slightly difficult time eliminating political bias as we learned a large majority of cats are, in fact, Democrats. Not surprising.
All focus group photos are shown below.
This illustrates just one example of a cat focus group watching a Trump video.

On The Subject Of North Korea And Kim Jong-Un:
Reactions about baiting the Leader by calling him Rocket Man, Little Rocket Man were a combination of contempt and utter disbelief…
This is Buster who seemed to understand Trump’s outrageous behavior, reacting with utter contempt, as if to say “don’t feed me that shit!”
These were Rosie and Daisy, two Sisters who seemed to think alike. They demonstrated disbelief listening to Trump baiting North Korea by softly whining and hiding their faces in their little paws, cursing to themselves with words you’d think cats just wouldn’t know.
This was Sissey. Although very young, she was not at all happy hearing Trump calling Kim Jong-Un Rocket Man, exclaiming the kitten equivalent of “Oh for fucks sake, he didn’t really say that!”
Willy seemed to say “that Schmuck did NOT really just call him Rocket Man and expect him not to retaliate! WTF?”
Polly just said “Huh? Say what??? Kill me now!!!”
