“During his first period, President Trump was instrumental in securing America’s bid to host 2028 summer -ol in Los Angeles,” the White House said press secretary Karoline Leavitt in a statement Monday. “The president considers it a great honor to oversee this global sporting sight in his second period.”
LA28 President and President Casey Wasserman said the Task Force “marks an important step forward in our planning efforts and reflects our common commitment to not only delivering the biggest but the biggest games the world has ever seen in the summer of 2028.”

While Canada and Mexico will be auxiliary hosts, the largest host country for the World Cup will be the United States. It is the first tournament to host three nations. The United States has 11 of the 16 cities serving as hosts of the football event, where the final was played in East Rutherford, New Jersey’s Metlife Stadium.
So even though this task force is planning for 2028, the United States will have security protocols in place for the World Cup, which could also be used two years afterwards.
Los Angeles has been a host of two Olympic Games, the first of which was in 1932 and the latest in 1984.
