    Even if I wanted to visit the states. Can I risk having my holiday ruined and the money I’d lose if I was randomly turned away at the border?

    It’s not even safe to transit the states at the moment.

      If you got into the country, what’s to stop ICE from picking you up and sending you to a prison in another country?

    More so for people with families. Individuals might be prepared to risk it but no one with kids is likely to.

    Why the fuck anyone want to come here right now? Dick-tator Dipstick running the show with his mushroom-fellating moron brigade cheering him on as if he wasn’t shitting his pants and reading at a third grade level…

    Selling off our public lands-- you know, the shit people want to see when they come here…

    Getting arrested for coming here AS A TOURIST and potentially being thrown in a fucking concentration camp…

    Everything is way too expensive and untrustworthy

    Meanwhile, Taco is literally attacking the 4th largest economy in the world and yammering on about tariffs again.

    I just don’t know how the market is still (relatively) up. I think when the crash does come, it’s going to be so rough.

    Well, who wants to do holidays is a fascist country, with the constant fear not to see Yellowstone or Niagara Falls, but Guantanamo instead.

    The Trump Regime has made it widely known that absolutely no one is safe visiting the United States. They’ve made travel by Americans, to American destinations questionable, based on ICE antics.

    Does America want a healthy tourism industry? Then they’d better get busy smashing fascism.

    As it stands, it is simply not advisable to travel to the United States.

    I am not doubting, but I am surprised that the article does not even mention Israel. I can’t see their tourism growing this year

      I’m equally perplexed. So tourism to places like North Korea or places in active war like Libya or South Sudan have gone up?

      To be fair, hard to decline when it’s already low. Even if they did include Israel or other countries mentioned in the replies, it’s still totally possible their tourism isn’t lower this year than last. Especially places where it was already pretty much 0 or statistically insignificant. Not declining doesn’t mean it went up, just means it’s at least the same percentage it was last year.

    Netanyahu, formally accused of “war crimes” and “starvation as a method of warfare”, also murder and persecution, in no less than the International Criminal Court, is still welcome. He’s even called the “greatest man” alive by the POTUS, a close friend whom Netanyahu knows his most intimate secrets. Meanwhile, the embassador of the USA in Mexico cancels visas to complete strangers through Twitter because they voiced their opinions on the way they are treating Mexicans everywhere in the USA, from Mexico. 1+1=2.
