Who the fuck wants to fly into Washington to find themselves on a flight to El Salvador a day later

And wait until those who have booked and can’t cancel come to an end

foxesfoxes.bsky.social•20 days ago

That's not surprising. Who wants to go there now by choice

I personally feel sorry for the decent Americans...

Correction: Canadians and Mexicans visit the US in far greater numbers than those from the UK. Canada alone is 20 million +.

Not anymore we don't!!!!

To be fair it's stopped us going this year. But probably the way they want it? America for the Americans? Not all obviously

We visited Washington in September 2024, before the US Presidential election, just in case!! Really didn’t expect Trump to win, let alone that things would get this bad. No plans to visit again until there’s someone sensible in the White House

Don't come!! We are fucking mad right now. If you are LGBTQI really don't come, sadly you won't be safe. Our President is a Dick Head!!!

That’s President Fuck Wit you mean!

It will be more than tourism that will be hurt. A world wide "boycott" of US good has started. People will go out of their way to by non US good whenever they can! Trump has no idea what he has started!

🍁 CANADIANS -- the largest group of foreign visitors to the USA are boycotting travel by a lot. This will surely impact vacation destinations, who can blame their dwindling business to Donald Trump 🎃

Maybe they shouldn't have let a Nazi become president

philt602.bsky.social•20 days ago

Look America, if you are worried about falling visitor numbers, DON'T elect a raging lunatic, racist, fascist, as your President!! The rest of the world has noted the refused entries, the deportations without trial and the shear shit-dickery going on in Trump land!!

Risk being snatched and incarcerated without due process does put the damper on a holiday.

Good grief; America isn't just 'not as inviting' as it once was it's actively HOSTILE.
Between the anti-trans agenda, the overwhelming gun problems, the aggressive and murderous police and the KIDNAPPING done by ICE and other agencies America will be lucky to have any tourism at all.
AVOID THE USA

Given that a UK citizen, who has nothing to do with Columbia, has had his tattoo posted on US as an example of a gang tattoo, it's hardly surprising that no one wants to go there. It's just not safe.

smartsmartie.bsky.social•20 days ago

What about travel to Russia?

lenday.bsky.social•20 days ago

Maybe we'll be back when American sanity returns. Maybe.

I suspect that day is a long, long way off.

The anti christ

Kim Don Trump - stalks the land

Odd that

My son (US citizen) and I (Green Card holder) went last October. We had a marvellous time. Talked about going back there to live. Cancelled this years's visit.
