That and the country being run by a madmen and his cronies.

I mean, who in their right mind would want to go to a country that’s going to demand access to your private devices on arrival?
“Sorry I don’t have any social media” – the only way they can prove this to be a false statement is to forcibly check your devices.
Will they actually do that? Who knows, but to the casual observer the statement does conjure the image of invading device privacy.

Yea because I want to go to a country where I have a higher chance of being shot than anywhere else in the world.

Why would you pay for travel, hotels and potentially activities in advance only to be turned around at the border because you shared a bald JD Vance meme? It’s a joke policy enacted by a joke president.

I have less than zero plans to visit the US ever again anyway, so I’m good thanks.

If they check my reddit I guess I’m not getting in because I’ve called Trump a lot of mean names and it will hurt his wittle fee fees.

Meh, I can see the third world country better on the telly with a cuppa in hand.

Yeah, I’m not chancing going to the US and risking getting sent home on the next plane because I hurt Trump’s feelings by criticising him online.
Maybe when he is finally out of office and this shit gets repealed I’ll think about it.

The far-right loves authoritarianism whenever it’s their team and not Keir Starmer doing it. Funny how that works

No problem. US has been on our “do not travel” list for a good while now.
We have no business visiting a country (though beautiful, must sadly admit) ran by convicted pedophile and literal nazis.
Instead of going for a month-long trip around US we decided to spend that money on several trips to the Europe.

Check what I’ve said about the Wal-Mart Mussolini and I’d be fast-tracked to Guantanamo. No way I’m going anywhere near that shithole

Tourist income is usually the most protected in any undemocratic regime, and you know when it becomes more risky to holiday in a place that the country is on the path to serious instability.
The difference here is it is not rebels putting the tourists at risk of course, so time will tell i guess.

I mean that sucks but having his personal storm troopers stomping around the country and harassing (and killing people) is putting me off more.

It’s not putting people off travel. Just travel to that shitheap.

And trust me, he will complain about how horrible everyone is for not wanting to visit the US when their tourist numbers drop even more

I’ll link them directly to this post where I will call Trump a stupid cunt.

Trump speedrun to destroy one of the most powerful economies going well

They’ve been doing this for years haven’t they? I was asked for my usernames on an ESTA waiver years ago.

I’ve already been put off, not just because you will get thrown out for free speech, but also just the chance of being shot is not insignificant.
Going to visit Canada instead.

Great job, but it Will Not Affect Me, as I Never wish to go to USA

Trump is a massive cunt.
Done, this will make picking my next holiday destination a bit easier 😂
I’ve been to Massachusetts for work or fun a couple of times, it was great, but no way in hell I’m flying to America while it’s doing a North Korean speedrun

I imagine the risk of getting murdered because you commited the crime of not being white or even the right kind of white, or for having looked at the some scrotes in tacticool gear wrong would also put some people off.

They’re welcome to look at my only social account, Reddit.
I hope they like scrolling through years of midget porn.

Zero interest in going to such a deranged country and zero interest in American social media companies (Reddit though).

Great, your travel plans now hinge on a US customs agent understanding a British sense of humor

I visited the USA from the UK around 2008.
It was the worst I have ever been treated both entering and leaving any country anywhere.
God only knows what its like now.

What’s going on today, Trump says he will essentially slow down incoming tourism . Whilst China is scrapping visas for uk visitors . The world order is shifting
