    FIFA is panicking: World Cup hotel cancellations are surging as global fans ditch the U.S., citing soaring costs, visa bonds, and Trump’s dictatorial behavior.

    Turns out nobody wants to pay $1,000 a night just to experience an authoritarian simulation.

          You know what, maybe don't come to México either, I would not put it past them to plan a black op and create chaos just to justify more of his hate and lust for invasion... they know people are not going to the US and he's mad as hell about this...

                  This orange guy threatens and insults others as he pleases.
                  The entry requirements for the U.S. are a threat to democrats.
                  And ICE is a threat to everyone, but especially to foreigners.
                  How stupid do you have to be to travel to the U.S. as a foreigner?

                  @baglava @Strandjunker i wonder if FIFA thought Trump was gonna buy all those tickets and rent those hotels himself when they gave him their "peace prize" 🙄

                                    Actual 1930's Nazi German fascism in the current 2026 United States. No simulation and no drill, it is real fascism.

                                        Who in their right mind would be there to be ripped off…

                                          FIFA is panicking: World Cup hotel cancellations are surging as global fans ditch the U.S., citing soaring costs, visa bonds, and Trump’s dictatorial behavior.

                                          Turns out nobody wants to pay $1,000 a night just to experience an authoritarian simulation.

                                          @Strandjunker, what really “needs” to happen is for ICE to detain some people involved in the tournament. Let's say some coaching staff, a few players, a few referees…

                                          They'll be very quick about releasing them, I'm sure of that.
