The United States is preparing to host the biggest FIFA World Cup in history, but behind the glittering stadiums and massive hype lies a brewing crisis. With tourism collapsing after Donald Trump’s return to the White House, America is banking heavily on the 2026 World Cup to revive its global appeal.

From Argentina and Brazil fans facing visa hurdles to the risk of empty stands despite millions of tickets sold, Rupha Ramani breaks down whether Trump’s policies will elevate the World Cup or strangle it before it begins.
