Viewers noticed a strange detail in the Oval Office, sparking widespread curiosity

Donald Trump signaled the start of his second term as the president of the country by signing a plethora of executive orders and making changes to the White House, his residency in the following four years.

As expected, he and Melania redecorated the 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue property, and one shiny artifact at the Oval Office caught the attention of the eagle-eyed viewers.

Somewhat expected, people wonder why would he have it.

As we all know, America has never won the FIFA World Cup, and the chances of winning it, at least the the time being, are obviously minor.

“Why has Donald Trump got the World Cup?” one user asked.

“Even Donald Trump won the World Cup before Cristiano Ronaldo,” another joked.

“Trump parading the World Cup trophy when the U.S. has never won and likely never will is hilarious to me,” quipped a third.

However, there might be an apparent reason for it; America, along with Canada and Mexico, will be hosting the FIFA World Cup in 2026. Or, the replica of the trophy – yes, it is a replica as confirmed by FIFA – could signify Trump’s close friendship with FIFA president Gianni Infantino.

Infantino congratulated Trump on winning the elections in November and them posted a message on the social media thanking the president after attending his victory speech in Washington D.C., a day prior to the inauguration.

“What an incredible honour and privilege it is for FIFA and me, as FIFA President, to be acknowledged by President Donald J. Trump during his victory rally speech in Washington DC,” he wrote.

The last time the USA hosted the World Cup was back in 1992, when Brazil won the championship.

President Trump having a replica of the trophy isn’t the first time. In fact, back in 2018, people spotted a miniature version of it at the Oval Office on the same place, the table behind his desk. At the time, people speculated he was trying to send a message to Russian President Vladimir Putin as Russia hosted the World Cup that year.
