Tourism to US plummets

[OlNate]

Unsure why this would be wanted, but it is as if MAGA does not want tourism to the US.

Finally, a maga wish I'd happily make come true.

It's for the same reason wife-beaters isolate their spouses from her friends and family.

When your government advises you to buy a burner phone and leave yours at home you know you're looking at travelling to a pretty questionable country. People who have texted critically of Trump and/or America have been run through the mill.

Do you believe everything your government tells you? If someone castigated you in a text message would you not respond? Who are these people who were run thru the mill? Personal friends of yours?

Trump is wrecking America and you lot are cheering him on.

Trump is wrecking America and you lot are cheering him on.

The only people cheering him on are the MAGA’s, the usual sycophants. Trumps poll numbers reflect that.

 

[Allan]

Trump is wrecking America the global economy and you lot are cheering him on.

FIFY.

Right now? No, but to become a pariah state you’d have to reach the level of a North Korea or Iran. You’ve got a long way to go.

Many of out previous allies of just 100 days ago are advising visitors to use burner phones and computers. I'd say that shows we are more Iran than America of old.

Who are many?

 

[noonereal]

Who are many?

Does it matter? It is about a dozen. But all our previous allies no longer hold us in esteem.

Well, it mattered to you enough to make the statement.

It sure as hell did as it should to you.

Good. So let’s return to my original question, WHO ARE MANY?

I answered you this question.

Don't come. It ain't safe, and the vibe is currently horrible. I mean, if you're numb to that sort of thing, sure, but I'm not. Most countries have beaches and forests. Go to one of those. I could write an essay about the ****ed up vibe here right now.

 

[gman]

I answered you this question.

I asked a specific question and you give a
Vague answer because you don’t know.

I ansewered you directly. Don't like it, do research.

That's crazy. Imagine going to a place where you have to act like a spy or a drug dealer just to be a bit safer.

Doesn't sound like a relaxing vacation destination to me...

Is America a Pariah State?

I feel like most threads these days are pariah threads.

They have not been paying their required share on NATO and they have been imposing tariffs on our products.

So naturally, the smart thing to do is to leave US consumers with no tourist dollars (free, painless tax revenue, basically) and empty shelves. MAGAs think of everything -- ass backwards.

 

[Fearandloathing]

The U.S. is in danger of becoming a pariah state?
Hyperbole much?

Yes.


Keep on whistling....


The graveyard is quite large and growing

They just opened a new, startlingly large across the Detroit river.


No turns out they don't need it.

Germany is unleashing a charm offensive to get Canadians to visit. And we don't have to take a burner phone.
