They should skip this hellscape. Border control is out of control. No one wants to be imprisoned for a paperwork error!!

Just had nice chat with coworker of my late husband. He finally got his passport after it lapsed years ago...but I told him, "Trying to get back IN to your own nation could be a nightmare."

"Apathetic electorate mad about consequences."

That’s exactly what’s happening.✅

Where are the f’ing violins? Or the leopards eating faces???

Does admit it’s self-inflicted.

Best comment I've ever seen, so fucking true...

I cancelled my plans to travel to the states, Seattle in particular. Fuck Trump and every politician who values power and money over democracy and fairness. America, you used to be cool.

Happy to see so many people who rely on tourism in the States enjoying Taco's American Golden Age. Anybody still wondering how the Dems lost all the swing states. That man lies and cheats at everything, but sure that was legit. Release the Trump-Epstein Files.

CNN should say it’s the Trump-inflicted injury. The article doesn’t even mention his name until the eighth paragraph. Cowards.

Make Tourism Unprofitable Again!!! MTUA!!

🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Republicans DO NOT care about constituents because with PedoPOTUS they don’t have to worry about losing power in elections, they’re fully funded by oligarchs & foreign cash. Their constituents would rather live in plague shack so they can call black people N-word. They keep voting for same people.

you have to fuck up so unbelievably much for this kind of shit to happen it's insane

We are there

"Make america go away."

Trump Tanks Tourist Trade People will lose jobs & businesses will lose $Billions A research firm suggests we were to see an 8.8% increase in tourism this year, but will instead have a 5.1% decline. CBP bullies, confines, & detains visitors as a bureaucratic flex & tells the world to stay away.

We are all super-duper angry with Trump.

We the non racist people.

Whatcha get when you piss the whole world off? Trump would rather be feared than loved. He'll wind up with neither. As for Trumpers, stupid toadies covers most of them.

One of my areas in collection development is Travel/Tourism. Thanks Trump, for destroying it.

F A F O

He killed tourism in his first term, so this is supposed to be a surprise? This was an inevitable outcome that could be seen from the next galaxy.

Fluffy optimistic take. Not once does anyone mention the fear tourist have at being detained by ICE and the Militarization of cities.

Ding ding ding! Not worth the risk at all.

Not just the fear but Canadians’ disgust and horror at the apprehensions, so many of which are apparently unlawful…including those of American citizens! So many Americans not *quite* understanding just how bad things are is also a head-scratcher. We see it, why don’t you all?

“America to me is rock ‘n roll, NASA, speed, jazz, horses, bourbon, hip hop, dance, MTV (the original), Hollywood, gold medals, innovation, strength, respectful (sic) and apple pie,” Hawkins told CNN in an email. “Not the army on the streets and the extreme division currently on show,” - No shit.

Yeah well the orange wannabe dictator can't force us to come. The current US government is no friend of foreigners. He wants to ICE them all

Yup, stay away

Imagine being from a Spanish speaking country coming to play soccer or watch your team in the US. FIFA needs to rethink 2026.

“We’re here when you’re ready” is possibly the most condescendingly snide response to losing customers, but I guess CNN found the few failing business owners that are good with that message.

Oddly, though, the local Seattle press says our hotels just set a record for monthly revenue. 🤔 I’d guess the mix of people has changed. Or, they’re just charging a lot more for rooms, and getting away with it…😏 mynorthwest.com/local/downto...

Nobody needs dirty furriners in lily white Jesusland.

Make America Godforsaken, Alone

It’s almost as if the Administration is being paid and/or blackmailed to destroy the U.S. Hmmm

People vote with their pocketbooks and with their feet. Right now, they have better, more welcoming places to be. It’s truly our loss…

Canadians are very entrenched in their boycott. Don't expect them back until Trump and his entire corrupt regime are brought down and thrown out of office.

Why would any foreign tourist come to America while Trump is around. High Fees for Visas, troops in streets, masked thugs grabbing brown people off street, and possibly being sent home before you enter or detained for days and then home.

It’s not just that. I’m a Dem living in a rural area of boebert’s district. There are small, trump worshipping towns near me where I will NOT spend money

You've got someone who is stepping up to run against bobblehead!

No me should come here with Trump’s goons on the prowl No World Cup No Olympics

I just returned from overseas (Tokyo). The foreign passport line at SFO customs was very short. Most people on my full flight were US Passport holders.

I’m a frequent US visitor. Will not come back until the dotard is gone and this fascist regime and their idiocy is over.

Smart.

Everything the Republican cult touches turns to shit. And I do mean everything.

#ETTD As true today as it was in his 1st term.

You’re not wrong!

More than $12.5b when you take into account those who come for healthcare and thus the hotels, etc. What does healthcare tourism typically bring in, when you factor in hotels, food, etc.?

Wait till the food shortages hit in a few months...

Canadians - we get it, but don’t boycott the Blue states! That just weakens the resistance to Trump more.

Anyone who voted for the tangerine turd who is losing their job because of his policies takes up exactly zero space in my conscience. That goes for the idiot farming and white nationalist evangelicals in my area. The only thing I want to hear from them is if I want fries with my order

lol

Isolationism always ends up backfiring. Problem is we all end up suffering the consequences until those in power finally wake up to the economic shit storm they’ve created 🤬

Yeah, I’ll be travelling to the US on the fifth of never. And I used to live in Canada, have gone on US driving holidays a number of times, and have an American parent (who also advises not travelling to the US)

Don’t come

Hell no!

Like @markhamillofficial.bsky.social posted yesterday : Morons Are Governing America.

A glaring omission for me is who the tour operators voted for.

This is an underreported story. Trump has not made America "hot." He's turned us into a pariah nation.

Of course CNN refused to acknowledge that Trump has actually threatened Canadian national sovereignty and threatened to take over that nation, besides a US ambassador recently threatening Canadian national waters in the Artic bordering Canada resulting in Carney smacking him down to his face.

Wait till snowbirds don't go to Florida this winter. Canada has resolve. Europe awaits us.

Still too many Canadians going to the US. The number should be zero unless it’s work or business related.

I’m a professional tourist guide in NYC and things are not looking good. Lots of guides are having a very difficult time with fewer visitors and fewer tours. Anecdotally, friends overseas have told me they will not come to the USA until the regime is changed, even though they would love to visit.

A lot of people won't *ever* come. This regime is terrible, but it was voted in by Americans, so...

That part 😡

Yeah. I may never take a vacation in the US again.

It pisses me off that @cnn.com writes these articles but takes absolutely no GD responsibility for the hell they unleashed too. Intentionally destroying our democracy and we act like we don’t even care.
