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.

To be clear, at this point the majority of Americans do not support the current administration. So blaming it on the American government is more apt.

The majority voted for this government... They don't get to wash their hands of it just because some people later changed their minds.

Not even a majority of voters, let alone the whole population, voted for the current President.
