Here is a better sauce:

 

Why does Trump have the World Cup trophy in the Oval Office - and is it real?

 

As President Donald Trump continues to work inside the Oval Office, viewers have spotted the menโ€™s Fifa World Cup trophy on his desk as his speeches are televised.

 

The trophy represents the USAโ€™s role as co-hosts of the 2026 tournament, alongside Canada and Mexico.

 

Trump himself will present the tournamentโ€™s winner with the trophy after the final at MetLife Stadium, New Jersey on 19 July.

 

The trophy inside the Oval Office is only a replica though, despite Trump seen as a close friend of Fifa president Gianni Infantino.

 

Infantino took to social media to publicly congratulate Trump, who he claims to have a โ€œgreat friendshipโ€ with, for winning the US Presidential Election and subsequently attended his inauguration.

 

Following the inauguration, Infantino was invited by Trump to the U.S. Capitol.

 

โ€œSo I am going to be your President for the Olympics and for the (Fifa) World Cup,โ€ Trump said recently. โ€œSo Gianni, thank you for the (2026 FIFA) World Cup, and everybody, thank you for the (2028) Olympics, we are going to have a great time.โ€

 

A replica trophy was also seen inside the Oval Office in 2018, though this current version appears to be different.

 

The trophy does provide a reminder that the United States is poised to host the biggest sporting event in the world, with 11 of the 16 host cities in the USA.

 

The replica trophy can be seen as trade discussions continue between the co-hosts of the World Cup.

 

Trump directed 25 percent tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada, while a further 10 percent tariff was placed on Canadian oil, natural, gas and electricity.
