As Donald Trump began his second term, he and Melania made changes to the White House. One detail caught viewers’ attention—a replica FIFA World Cup trophy displayed behind his desk.

Since the U.S. has never won the World Cup, many questioned its presence. Some joked, “Even Trump won before Cristiano Ronaldo.”

The likely explanation? The U.S., Canada, and Mexico are set to host the 2026 World Cup. Additionally, Trump shares a close friendship with FIFA President Gianni Infantino, who congratulated him on his re-election and attended his victory speech.
