Governments need to start putting out travel warnings on the US. It’s becoming an increasingly dangerous place to visit.

What would that help? Asking as a EU citizen.

Quid pro quo. Hurt the current administration's popularity by inconveniencing US citizens. And in general, Visa free travel is a mutually beneficial deal. If the US stops giving the EU benefits, why shouldn't the EU reciprocate.

Personally, I get it but don't support it. I still appreciate my American brethren, just not their administration. We should hit back at the establishment, not the population. Big point there is reducing weapons import, and adding export tarrifs on F35 parts, perhaps ASML machines aswell.

> Quid pro quo ... inconveniencing

Hitting the innocent is downright criminal.

So, sniper, any arguments? Now you look as if I denounced a vile perspective and some responded with a vile action.
