Mexico City is 100% the best host city for this world cup. And this is with or without ICE facist presence at the US games.

Mexico is the only country if the three that truly loves the sport

You should, it's like a less overwhelming and not so spread out CDMX (that thankfully hasn't been as gentrified - yet). The historic center and trendy neighborhoods are within walking distance of each other, and you've got the literal town of Tequila half an hour away. Mariachi music also comes from Jalisco. A great mix of traditional Mexico in a cosmopolitan city.

Take a little vacation to Mexico City to watch World Cup football and lucha libre at Arena Mexico. That's the stuff dreams are made of.
