Scared of ICE, Angry at Trump, and Facing Red Tape, Many Are Skipping World Cup
"Since Donald Trump’s second inauguration, the number of international travelers visiting the United States has fallen by more than 5 percent. The number of Canadians visiting the country has plummeted by more than 20 percent.
All told, the fall-off in international tourism has translated into a decline of $8.4 billion in tourists’ spending in the U.S.
The World Travel and Tourism Council has estimated that 80 million more people traveled internationally in 2025 as compared to 2024. Yet, with horror stories circulating of tourists being arrested and sent to immigration detention centers for weeks or months, and of travelers having to hand U.S. border agents access to their cell phones and laptops, none of that tourism boom is filtering down to the U.S. And would-be tourists may grow even more leery if Trump succeeds in implementing his proposal to force many of them to disclose the last five years of posts on their social media accounts."
