Immigration restrictions, intensified enforcement, and deportation raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have become defining elements of his administration. "This is a difficult time in this country because a lot of things that are happening are extremely unusual," says Daniel Kanstroom, professor of Boston College Law School. "We are seeing examples of ICE agents who appear to be overstepping their authority in some cases.""
"The Trump administration has also tightened visa regulations, including broad suspensions affecting dozens of countries, in what Trump described as an effort to "permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries." The United States will host three-quarters of tournament's total 104 matches, with the remainer taking place in Canada and Mexico. Against this backdrop, social media has erupted with claims that thousands of fans are canceling their tickets out of fear of immigration enforcement."

Immigration restrictions, intensified enforcement, and ICE deportation raids have become defining features of his second term. Visa regulations were tightened, including broad suspensions affecting dozens of countries, which Trump described as an effort to "permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries." The United States will host three-quarters of the tournament's 104 matches, with the remainder in Canada and Mexico. Social media users claimed thousands of fans canceled tickets over immigration fears. There are no official reports verifying mass cancellations.
