My desire to visit the US just went sub zero.

The worst part is this has the possibility to spread to other countries (that the US can twist the arm of) because they want to extend their policies further.

Right, just freaking stop going there. Americans have made it loud and clear (by voting with majority) that they don't like outsiders.

Stop going to the US. Is it pretty? There are way better places on earth. Is it fun? There are way funnier places ok earth. There's no reason to submit to all that degrading behavior.

Good riddance. Let the. Keep their decadent country to themselves until it crumbles.

I'm Canadian. Before Trump, I made several trips a year to the USA. all my vacation money was spent there. Now I go to Europe every summer instead.

Meanwhile, I recently received a survey from some industry association in the USA asking what it would take for me to return to travelling in the USA. Like asking a bunch of questions about accommodations, travel, flights, etc. Without even mentioning the obvious.

Do Americans not know how they are perceived in the rest of the world?

As an American, I can only believe it because I know the dipshts that got elected. I wouldn't come here. This is all a real wtf.

Note that in the pre-social media era, this particular bs would not be possible.
