Donald Trump tweets to supporters of Morocco's 2026 World Cup bid

Donald Trump has told the United States' allies they should be supporting the North American bid for the 2026 World Cup, and not Morocco's, in a veiled threat on Twitter.

In a tweet posted on Thursday, President Trump wrote: "The U.S. has put together a STRONG bid w/ Canada & Mexico for the 2026 World Cup. It would be a shame if countries that we always support were to lobby against the U.S. bid. Why should we be supporting these countries when they don't support us (including at the United Nations)?"
