  2. Was like watching a shark eating our leg while we sat on a sinking boat clutching a battery.

  3. Yeah, who needs all those freeloading tourists? Certainly not someone who owns hotels…

  4. For a business guy he sure loses a lot of money.

  5. Must’ve been when Lady Liberty started charging for selfies.

  7. Guess we’re really putting the ‘no’ in ‘welcome’.

  9. We’re really missing the Canadians at the NH Seacoast.

  10. And people’s anti-Yankee views are hardening, not diminishing.

  11. Traveling to the US got more expensive and more complicated. People are going elsewhere

  12. I think that number is grossly underestimated.

  13. Why would I risk going to that flaming dumpster? Nothing good is coming from USA these days.

  14. America is not safe with the current racist totalitarian regime raining down terror. He got 75 billion to build new consecration camps and will be rounding people up to fill them don’t get caught by the SS

  15. It doesn’t end there, he plans on making the remainder that do come pay more to make up for it (while pretending to keep prices lower for us Americans.)

    Create the problem, try to create the solution to the problem – profit?

  17. That’s what the MAGA wants. They think the US is so great that we don’t need to contact with the world. That’s why we have all these tariffs, anti immigrants, anti tourism things. Let’s lock the country and live the 1800s way

  18. We have new Concentration camp vacations. No work, all the sex you want, free food and color TV. The best.

  19. “Donald Trump, you’ve treated your allies with contempt. You’ve bullied, you’ve lied, and you’ve threatened. But Canada doesn’t get pushed around. We stood up to you, and we’re going to keep standing up to you. We’re not afraid. You might scare your own people—you don’t scare us. We’re going to defend out democracy, our economy, and our sovereignty, no matter what you throw at us.” – Charlie Angus, former Canadian MP

  23. I won a $30K scholarship to Trump U in 2008. I went to Trump Tower before my classes started to see it. After 4 hours there I figured out Trump was a massive fraud, a scammer. Even the chocolatier next door that I stopped in afterwards were like, “people believe him, but he’s a massive liar”. BTW, the Tower was a dump.

  24. I’m currently on what used to be a huge summer vacation spot for Canadians. The town is DEAD. Like, we’ve seen more homeless people than edited* any other people. It’s really sad. We ended up doing some shopping as se felt bad for the small business owners.

  25. “This would never have happened if I was Pres…oh wait.”

  27. If I knew there was a small chance my vacation might include a visit to A detention center and my family being separated there’s no way, not in a million years I would visit that country.

  28. My condolences to those who didn’t vote for this but have to suffer economically. 

    For those that did vote for this.  FAFO. 

  29. And the dollar has fallen so Europe is now 10% more expensive.

  30. US and MAGA can go straight to hell. Seriously, I hope the US collapses. Fuck America and every American in it.

  31. Trump admin will soften the blow to Trump® Establishments by renting rooms for official functions.

    Everybody else can fuck off anyway.

  32. Half the US elected Don the Con and subsequently, got conned. The other half got robbed.

  33. Yes, come for the majestic scenery and culture. Stay because you had a meme of Vance on your phone, and now you’re in a concentration camp.

  35. Ah yes let’s raise prices for foreign tourists to our parks at a time when tourism is in decline due to our policies. What a stable genius

  36. The US has so many interesting places that are worth seeing. You guys have incredible national parks and a rich history and culture. But I’m not going to risk being detained at the border for having a meme on my phone. That’s the kind of shit you tend to find in North Korea.

  37. Not risking going on a holiday and being detained – sounds logical. Spend the money in a safe country.

  39. I would love to visit the United States. However they don’t exist anymore. Not planning on visiting Gilead/Nazi Germany.

  40. How the fuck is the US going to successfully host the World Cup and the Olympics in the coming years?

  41. Well that’s what happens when the world, which already had a low opinion of the US and Americans, now has a rock bottom opinion of you.

    And we don’t want to be thrown in a concentration camp for having memes of your fat ugly rapist President on our phones.

  42. Generally speaking my family and I have had a vacation in the US roughly every second or third year for over thirty-five years – I won’t be visiting during the clown’s reign, sorry, love all you decent people but it’s literally I can do.

  43. The world needs to collectively boycott all US products and eliminate all travel to the US. It is NOT safe to travel to the US. The Trump administration is a danger to everyone. They are the enemy.

  44. As an Australian, I always wanted to visit the civil war battle sites, but I also don’t feel like being put into an ICE gulag for two weeks because I spelled one word on my visa wrong. So no thanks, I’ll just go to Europe instead.

  45. As a Canadian, I wouldn’t even consider travelling to the U.S. right now and if my employer tried to compel me we would be discussing it with HR.

    I won’t travel to the U.S. for the same reasons why I wouldn’t have travelled to the Soviet Union or Nazi Germany.

    Any country where masked men can legally just grab me off the street and put me in a cage is a country I’ll never step foot in.

  46. As an American – I’m not traveling in America either.

    I’m taking my travel money to other countries where people are respected.

    Why would people come from other nations to visit when there’s a Possibility that they will be harassed and detained at the border, so Trump can impress his army of Nazi devils who voted for him.

    Foreign travelers, please don’t come here – I believe it helps fight the American Nazism going on.
