3-4x the price of Qatar, and multiple teams are from countries with "travel bans" or require a 15k "deposit" they're almost guaranteed to not get back just to enter the country.

But trump will still crack down and piss off people coming even tho they all have to be wealthy and at least ambelivant about trump when they try to enter.

The whole thing is gonna be a shit show, and it's shocking no teams are boycotting
