Tourism is down? No shit!
I’m in a situation where I might have to travel with a group of students, and big boss is dead set on the US. We’re talking overtime, plane tickets, car rental, hotel, and a per diem. But still I’m resigning before I’ll go to the US right now. If ICE or CBP sees 10% of the stuff I’ve said about TACO, and politics in general, online, I’d be lucky to just get shipped home.
Gee, I wonder why?
Tourism went down in Berlin in 1935, but that’s not the same thing, right?
And up in 1936 on account of the Olympics. You’ll never guess who’s hosting the 2028 games.
What the fuck lol
History really does repeat itself
Let’s see when a latin American person wins, whether Trump refuses to shake hands
They’ll get deported on their way out of the stadium.
It could go up if they opened the border…
It’s only been a couple of months. For many people across Europe, visiting the US is quite a trip, these are easily planned a year in advance. Therefore, many still visit the US, because otherwise they might lose serious sums of money. I’m curious to see what next years figures will look like
Good. We fucking deserve it.
No one wants to visit. ICE is even detaining white people from Canada and UK, no one is safe from this Trump crap.
North Korea could do the craziest thing right now…
Of course they won’t, but they could do a 180 and give everyone a free life.
North Korea probably couldnt handle a million immigrants. China wouldn’t notice if their 25ish cities with 5M each got 100,000 americans
I bet it’s all the illegals who used to come on a tourist visa to enter and then illegally overstayed. /s
I had that thought too, but it is true that in Canada for instance the USA border guard has recently gotten a nasty reputation for detaining canadians over nonsense. It is chilling to see how little they think of the good faith relationship people from those countries have long shared.
Oh yes, there have been several press stories for tourists from the EU as well. Being questioned and detained for weeks even.
The rest of the world are such bullies.
Gee, I wonder why? Perhaps xenophobia and open hostility towards foreigners isn’t good for the tourism industry? Who could have possibly foreseen this outcome? 🤔🙄
I expect this trend to continue if the federal government moves forward with it’s plan to charge foreigners more money to visit national parks. One of the objectively best things about our country is our vast natural beauty protected by the federal government in perpetuity, and the national parks system is one of the few institutions that turns a profit every year and we still have the dumbass-in-chief trying to fuck that up too.
our vast natural beauty protected by the federal government in perpetuity
Well, for the moment, anyway…
Wait until Tuesday…
Not even North Korea?
They just opened a new waterpark, it was big news and all
That’s a pretty mid water park. I feel like they could do better
That was only one building, this is how it looks like from the outside
West Edmonton mall anyone?
You mean Trump is bad for business?
Which means all those people saying he’d run it like a business are…stupid?
He is running it like a business, problem is, he runs most of his businesses straight into the ground.
This. Running a country like a business is not good.
Well, the idea of running a Constitutional republic “like a business” is stupid for a whole lot of reasons, but having Taco run it like one of his “businesses” is…next-level stupid.
You’re literally imprisoning tourists for the most minor shit, you silly dickheads. Of course that’s going to cost you money.
I DIdNt vOtE fOr ThIs
I specifically voted for the opposite of this! Lol
I never do. And yet it happens anyway.
Good.
