The international soccer exposition has been a major success for the United States. Game after game, fans from across the world are having a good time. No rioting, no hooligans heading to prison like you find in Europe.

These images are going out all over the world. The foreign press will never acknowledge this because they hate Donald Trump and American culture in general. But social media can now circumvent these traditional outlets.

Many of the people living abroad who came here to watch the games are ecstatic about being in the U.S.A. They’re discovering hospitality, natural beauty, and, of course, ranch dressing.

All of this goodwill is a tribute to us. We are a welcoming country. Our police are doing a fabulous job at keeping the fans safe.  

All this positive attention goes against our global image that we’re onerous and educated.

This is the reason the World Cup is important to America. The United States rarely gets the credit that it deserves.
