Is it possible the Olympics and World Cup not hosted in US?

[Anonymous]

Can/will these organizations pull out of the upcoming World Cup and Olympic Games? Is this a possibility?

If I were a foreigner there is no way I would travel to America for these events. Thoughts?

We had a house guest from the UK last week. They had no issues with immigration. However, if I were ME or Hispanic, I would definitely be worried. I know there are some Europeans/Canadians who got swept up, but I think those were really circumstantial issues. Just remember to remove all your social media apps and any texts/chats where you criticize Israel and Trump.

It’s insane that is what is needed to happen in order to come to the US.

Is the USA due to host either of these in the next 4 years?

People - you do not need to do that. Get a grip. 70,000 non Americans arrive in the US everyday.

I would be worried coming as a foreigner, but Russia and Qatar hosted recently. I don't think our human rights record is worse than theirs and I don't think plans will change.

Yet - give it a few years

Presumably if the events stand there will be less travelers here than compared to other events.

Wonder if spectators will actually travel to the World Cup next year? I wouldn't.

Wouldn't be surprised one bit if some countries boycott.

They just strip searched and detained and refused entry two white German tourists in HNL because they hadn't made hotel reservations thus were suspicious work seekers. I note white in case people think privilege helps. Nope.
This does not encourage visitors.

I hope the IOC will cancel the Los Angeles games citing the likelihood of athletes and guests from other countries being arrested, detained, and put in prison by ICE
