He has no f’n clue about what he’s doing. He doesn’t even know how percentages work. We have the intellectual equivalent of a 9 year old making global economic decisions.

That's an insult to 9 year olds everywhere. I was thinking more like 5.
Lutnick & Hassett do!
I just posted this headline from @huffpost.com about half an hour ago, #DumpTrump is completely #BrainDamaged, "America First" at its worst, this even rhymes. 😱😱😱 But it wouldn´t concern me, I´m disabled, on #SocialSecurity and unable to travel to the USA from SW Germany anyway.
I think the problem will be when the next pres gets in they will reverse everything, the economy will shoot to the moon, and trump will go down in history as being the worse pres in history. I believe in the waiting game.
You're adorable if you believe global trust in the USA and all the soft power being utterly squandered can be taken back just like *that*.
I wasn't talking about that, was more a tourism trade and stock market boom once he's out. But thanks for saying I'm adorable. Providing you are not being passive aggressive.
But that's not going to come back quickly either when the stock market also reacts to global forces, including foreign investment and tourism. If the US' standing is like a nice pie with a large dog turd on it, you can clean every scrap of shit off it but nobody's still going to want to eat it.
Ok, thanks for your prediction
If a president announces abolishing tourism levis, do you not think travellers may book cheap holidays?
Until that sense of trust and safety comes back, no. 'Cheap' is always relative, planning a holiday is something the average household has to do well in advance. Your average European for example is going to need a way bigger incentive or reason than that not to stay in Europe.
Me, I had planned out with every intention of visit the US *this* year for the first time since 2009 as personal conditions were then right. But that's been made impossible, by the time 'normality' comes back the reasons for coming may well have gone and it's still going to feel 'broken' underneath.
Yep I disagree. The flights/hotels would be cheap AF also, because of 4 years of heightened inflation. Would be a deluge. This is the most influential country in the world, that kind of influence doesn't just go away because of one sitting president. Europeans would flock there
Yep. Trump has proven that there is currently nothing to stop the next Republican President doing this again - even if a Dem President takes over from him & reverses everything. That’s ignoring that Trump is breaking things that will never be fixable.
The grift continues. One more distraction from the news we should still be on, Epstein files.
i imagine he thinks this'll make it so we only get "classy" tourists that exclusively speak english and don't make the yokels piss their pants. but it'll just be obsequious ass-kissing criminals most likely. since that is 90% of his peer group (and child rapists— though the venn has big overlap).
What makes me laugh is that classy (read white) tourists are all living in a cost of living crisis and not going on holiday. A lot of arabs on the other hand... gonna be hilarious!!!
That gives me TWO reasons not to visit the US for a vacation. The first is Trump himself.
As a tourist you should not step in the USA at least the next 3.5 years.
Isn’t it insane how much damage Trump’s done in only 6 months?
It’s all along the forecast…
He's had LOTS of help.
Give it time and watch history repeats itself
IIRC, at the moment, this is limited to two African countries.
If it's true, no one will want to visit the country...
I don't know why they would. Jesus, it's awful.
Well, maybe pedophiles. Safer than Bangkok now.
Good point.
I'm just gonna go out on a limb here and suggest that the people required to pay $15,000 will have brown or black skin.
Is he aiming for only the rich and wealthy being able to travel to the U.S? In his delusional mind, maybe he's trying to turn the U.S into one big Monaco, lol. Only his wealthy pedophile friends will be able to afford a visit.
I agree it is a barrier for most. These folks are terrified of the browning of America. By the time they are done, I suspect our democracy will exist only in the history books.
If we still have a planet, and if the future still is a fascist future in the U.S, I doubt you will have history books. And if you do, it will be a glorified one-sided version.
Insects are dying. Coral reefs are dying. Starfish are dying. Glaciers are dying. Common sense is already deceased. I get it.
Shame MAGAts can’t follow suit
and Trump working against and/or removing anything that has to do with climate change work or anything good for the environment. Just all opposite. Feels like he's trying to destroy our planet.
No one wants to stay at his tacky ass properties. I once got of those "blind" Vegas discount 5-star hotel deals for a low price, only to find out it was for Trump's hotel. I said, "No, thank you." I pitched a fit until they refunded me.
This countries worst mistake! I did not vote for this pedo piece of shit, I gave up Kool-Aid ages ago!
Basically taking the economy apart sector by sector
That's what Putin wanted so he wouldn't have to involve his military, however, that's still always plan B if diaper Don and his minions fall to install full fascism and oligarchy.
A real possibility
Serious question: Why would *anyone* want to come here?
I’m never going back to America. Can’t forgive, forget, or pretend the hatred for foreigners, women, children, immigrants, LGBTQ+, liberals doesn’t exist. The hate won’t disappear just because trump goes. His supporters will still be there. How can we trust you again?
Because $ is down, so USA is cheaper! But with these 15000 $, it is not anymore!
Mais, c'est trop dangereuse, por les visiteurs et aussi les citizens.
Pourquoi dangereux ?
Parce que le glace fait disparaitre les visiteurs. Comme ca: www.irishtimes.com/world/us/202...
But if you're lucky you could win an adventurous bonus vacation to Venezuela or South Sudan! Free meals and lodging included!
Yeah, why take the chance
Keep up the bad work donnie.🤣🤣🤣🤣
Flippin moron!
Get bent Orange Pedo man. Not one loonie to you, criminal!!! Signed, Mean & Nasty Canadians.🇨🇦🍁
He craves attention and when people react to his bs, he wins. Ignore the MFR, as he's a petulant toddler. Feel free to ask him about Epstein, though.
As if anyone needs to be pushed away anymore!! This is so funny, does he think people would pay to go to a place they are likely to be imprisoned? Bizarre.
So does that mean he'll charge touring artists too? Most bands I love are from Eastern Europe or Sweden (because they have amazing government support for the arts, unlike here 😑) But I doubt that an added $15k per band/crew member will make touring remotely feasible...
This
How much of that money will Americans see? If the betting odds were plus/minus .5 dollars, I would take the under.
We will see as much as we are seeing under the gold visa.
wtf. how many industries can this jackass destroy at once
I just can't believe he can even function being that deranged
DumbPolitik
Florida’s tourism industry is dead.
I’ve been seeing many out of state license plates here in Southern California- very surprising but our weather has been really nice. We need the tourist dollars 👍🏻
Just wait until he gets the idea to have citizens pay a Highwayman Tax to re-enter the US
I think he’s got the instructions upside-down.
Sure, I will pay $15k to have them find this meme on my phone when trying to actually entering the US:
I have NO idea.
🤣🤣🤣
Hey if it’s any consolation-my passport lapsed-don’t think I can leave! Ride or die baby!
I'm never going there while frump or even Republicans are in power. My Canadian visitor even cancelled her business class flight home via the US, so she could fly direct to Vancouver, and went economy instead!
😂
Why - not. How - yes.
It's like he's challenging us to kick his ass out. Challenge accepted!
What a dumb ass!
Just $15,000? Why not
😜😡
Betcha every penny will line his personal coffers. There’s always a GRIFT.
Always
You've just reminded me that Trumps ex is buried on his Scottish golf course!
No . She’s buried in Bedminster NJ. I live in the state and I’m pissed that now he pays $0 taxes on the property!
Ed, I also read the NJ tax law exempts the golf course from income taxes, too. So, it’s a double insult to the NJ taxpayers! That law has all kinds of exemptions b/c he buried Ivana there. .
No… at Bedminster.
Ivana was buried at his Bedminster Golf Club in NJ.
he tried for yrs to get NJ to allow him to create a cemetery & was refused but it couldn’t deny him a family plot, the property now has a cemetery classification safe from inheritance taxes bec of a what people call a neglected grave
POS
Ivana would have been a better President.
Why his 3 oldest spawn allowed their mother to be buried in her ex husbands golf course is just stupid and cruel, unless they would gain something from it.
They’re Trumps. Nuff said
Speaking of which Does anyone know of an updated photo of her grave ? You know, a more recent one that shows a well tended sanctuary with fresh flowers and touching ornamentations to her memory ?
Really? Damn!! But still......
Was she? I find it really hard to believe that Ivanka would let her mother be buried in an unmaintained grave. Her ashes are actually with Ivanka and not in the coffin that was actually buried.
That would be the right thing to do....but I truly doubt it. Burying her on his golf course was for a tax break.
For a tax break
And to conceal secret documents in her casket to carry them to the Saudi golf tournament that he held the same week.
💯
Sure…it was for a tax break🙄. Nothing to do with her ‘falling down the stairs’ days before her disposition
This, plus you know there are documents I her casket. You don't need need a ginormous casket to hold an urn containing cremains. The six pallbearers were straining under the weight of it all.
Nothing to see here…move along 🫣
He has someone push her. He said he would do it to Melania in the past and bam! Ivana Falls
I thought he suggested pushing Marla down the stairs instead of having to marry her when he found out she was pregnant
He used the word “wife” iirc. In a weak moment, He asked ol’ Epsie if he should marry Marla. {{Epstein is like 🤷♂️ that ain’t my thing }}
Two-fer And it was the day before Ivana's deposition.
Excuse my language: this is Idiotic.
don't worry. That $15,000 visitor's fee will go the the same offshore account all the "TARIFF" taxes are going to. Under the ORANGE TURD's RUSSIAN name in the Cayman Islands
Yeah he bankrupted a business where the business model was literally 1. customers come in 2 customers give us there money 3 that's it.
Please move the world cup
I will likely never visit their country again.
Can't say I blame ya. I would leave if I could afford it.
"The more we charge, the more money we make." Doesn't even take an Econ 101 class to know that's horrible logic.
Ask Vegas how that is going for them?
I'm sure there are not any Trump billionaires involved in the travel and tourism industries.
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
He doesn't care about tourism dollars. Except for Florida, they go mostly to blue states, and donald is always looking to make desantis look like renfeld to dracula. Except that donald is a pussy
I sort of think he’s like our state. When we cross into Alabama (our state flag is a red X) it says (closed) (and has for over a month )
😡
I reiterate: JUMP YA CUNT!!
Moron.
Everything seems to be about filling government coffers while having no regard for the consequences it causes.... Mark my words... he will financially ruin us, then use this money to cut "Trump" checks to buy our votes before the midterms.
Except the coffers aren’t being filled. Trumpy is likely pocketing a lot of money
He won't be able to "steal" the money, but having discretionary control over this money (that he is pulling out of everyone's pockets) is the next best thing.
He absolutely will steal anything not nailed down including cash.
Including the FIFA cup and the gold medal his fat little hands grabbed at the photo shoot.
And if the Olympics do come here, he'll steal all the athletes' gold medals.
About $1B a month off this grift.
So, the $15000 will go towards the stay at the concentration camp?
It is a bond, that is returned upon exit. The reality is that it will end up costing far more $ to administer than anyone expects.
Yeah, I don't believe anything Trump says
This isn't Trump BS this is an actual rule being published by the State Department. www.federalregister.gov/documents/20...
Guess what, I don't believe anything this administration says.
OK. I have doubts about the execution.
I wouldn’t risk it. Once you’re in, he’ll announce another scam to just keep the $.
It is easier as a US business to get the $ back from the USG than some foreign individual. The idea is that the business takes the risk not the traveller.
It’ll be kid rock and bobo wearing dumbass flag costumes at the airport, grabbing 15,000$ off people and then yelling haha mother fucker you’ll never see that money again as you walk outside for a cab
The U.S. State Department is supervised by a Trump Minion. It's 100% Trump b.s. and nobody outside the United States should come here. It's not safe.
BS in terms of the policy is BS not that they are not planning to implement the bond. We are learning about the different expressions of BS with this administration.
temporary final rule? Until another temporary rule is made
So it’s only for people who get VISAs?
Yes. The idea is that if you are from Zambia you have to put up a $5000-15000 bond to secure the visa. This would be like 4 years of income to get an upper class family of 4 B1 visas. That would be like $1 million for a similarly situated American family.
Except he never pays his bills or tabs. No one is getting that money back.
You miss the idea. A business for someone else. Like a bail bond business but putting up $ for a visa. The person never has to produce the $15k and the business can charge a small fee for the bond. There is very little risk that a person will actually overstay a business or tourist visa.
But it would be a lousy idea for a business. 1) Who wants to visit the US? 2) You lose the money when your customer is sent to Alligator Alcatraz.
The US issued 4.1 million B visitor visas. If the number of visitors get cut in half that is still 2 million visas. The risk of someone overstaying a visa is small. Build the risk into the fee and just let the $ go if someone overstays.
Exactly. “Thanks for the $15k. Admin charges were $3k. Here’s your $5k back. If you complain we’ll arrest you and take the rest too.”
No. As a business. I put up the $15k and charge you $50. It only cost you $50 for the visa and all I have to do is put up $. This is the same business model as bail bonds but with far less risk.
So there’s no possibility of the visitor having to pay some or all of the $15k? Either way, it’s certainly a novel way to dissuade tourists.
OK. No, my service would be the visitor pays me a fee and I put up the bond. This would be a service people would pay for. I paid $120 for global entry and that was just to get into a shorter line at the border crossing.
The idea is fine, but it only works if the government plays fair. I don't have any confidence that they'll do that.
It's a logistical nightmare, and a disincentive to visit the country at the very least. And I agree -- you cannot take the risk that our gov't will abide by its own rules.
So when do you get your $15k back?
Whenever the USG releases the bond. The point of the service is for the business to deal with the hassle of putting up the bond and getting the $ back from the USG. The customer just pays the fee then is done with dealing with the US.
$50 seems like a very low fee for both the admin involved and the loan of $15k for an indeterminate period.
So you are expecting an accurate estimate for a fee based on an idea for a business?
Bet there's trouble getting it back. Delays, system down, blah..
And thousands of travelers will start complaining that they never got the money back, and other countries will start initiating a reciprocal entry fee on American citizens.
"...that is "returned" upon exit. *wink wink* 😉 Of course this too will be dependent on whether or not the traveller is actually free to voluntarily exit the country.
Consistent with America's last policy.
The Republican Political Party is undermining the tourism industries and infrastructure here in the U.S. .
Say it with me now, the Republicans are destroying everything that makes this country function on every level. Everything.
O he’s laughing for certain But this is 99% all home grown domestic attacks White nationalist Evangelicals are destroying our nation
Along with the healthcare system, cancer research, environmental protection, workplace safety, food safety, and on and on
Where the hell is all of this money going??? Someone better be doing a little snooping. 🚬😎
He'll siphon it through legal routes so they can't touch him! Anyway, who'd pay $15,000 to visit the US under normal circumstances nevermind while that dangerous clown is in charge?
So that's the question - who needs to get away from their home country so bad that $15K is a reasonable entrance fee. Hmmmmmm
He’s aggressively stupid.
Probably fair to say that a lot of people wouldn't visit if you paid them $15,000
True
My husband and I traveled to London this past May. The Boeing 767 from Chicago to Heathrow was completely full. The return flight was ~60% booked. Fewer people were traveling to the US then, can you imagine if the orange baboon slaps a $15,000 charge just to enter the country? Good work, moron.
We did the same in May. Completely full flight over to Heathrow, lots of empty seats on return to US. The people on the return flight appeared to be US citizens only, as evidenced in the lines to enter the country. Last year on a similar trip, the lines were the opposite. People are NOT visiting.
Many Canadian airlines have cutback on flights to the US because there isn't the demand. Even tourist traps like Vegas have seen a big drop in visitors.
That’s about the only way I’d visit. 🤣
You could add some extra zeros and I still wouldn't. I'm not rich and certainly would love $1,500,000. But I have standards.
Trump's White House is a criminal enterprise...
The mob boss has gone insane. He has only ever had the ability to do bad things. He can not successfully run this country with a gang of goons and haters and misfits and mafia. Bondi must be mafia, I never saw such a mean girl.
I have to admit, with everything I've predicted, I couldn't see this coming. Without a doubt, he must be a blathering idiot if he thinks this will help this situation he created.
What trump understands about economics would fit on the head of a needle.
With room left over…
With room left over for everything else he knows🙄
It seems crystal clear to me that someone substituted for him at Wharton.
Mary Trump said as much. His dad hired people to take his tests.
it would even fit on the tip !
With still more space.
hmmm, right. Getting pretty close to zero now.... Maybe we should start talking in negatives.
1st thought.
Idiot!
🎯
Bodes well for the World Cup and Olympics!!!
part xx of xxxx to destroy the US economy; destroy, businesses & destroy/end as many lives as possible. In other words, how to kill millions without gunfire and how the wealthiest acquire property and businesses for pennies on the dollar.
All the while collecting lots & lots & lots & piles & piles of Americans' taxpayer money
THE PUTIN/TRUMP CRIMINAL FASCISTS are attempting to isolate the USA from the rest of the world in all ways - destroying USA international trade, travel, tourism, travel, work, school visas.. But I guarantee - Putin/Trump will soon arrange many Russian visitors to the USA; like Putin & Oligarchs too.
I would say I'm not traveling to America out of protest, but it's really because I want to stay alive Let the country wall itself off and die
SNRK! This made me shoot milk out my nose 👃
😆😂🤣 The world is not that desperate to pay $15,000/- a visit to America and end up in the CECOT of El Salvador. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙣 𝙞𝙨 𝙖𝙣 𝙞𝙢𝙗𝙚𝙘𝙞𝙡𝙚.
Trump has descended from demented cruel psychopath to a demented cruel psychopath with dementia. The fact his father had severe dementia in his old age doesn't necessarily mean Trump will also head in the same direction, but it sure looks like that's what's happening.
He's absolutely demented.
So did his mother. trump's dementia is now well documented and verifiable. Anybody else would have been sent to memory care some time ago. Combine that with his physical decay and long term outcomes don't appear to be happy.
His brain misfires about 99.999% of the time. The other 0.001% of the time, he’s… oh, fuck it. It’s 100% of the time.
🤣🤣🤣 'Misfires'
🤣🤣🤣 'Brain'
More like 1500% He has the best brain misfires. Everybody's talking about that.
Wtf?
He really is that stoopid!
Gonna be a very empty Olympic stadium
We know he isn't smart.
Idiot! 👎🤬🤬
I bet this won't apply to Russians, Isrealis, or Afrikaaners
Um
Oh. I'd hypothesised they were purely money laundering operations for his pal Vlad and, as with all corrupt practices, you have to keep mobile, so you let them go bust and use others like any ponzi scheme till the music stops. So they were legit businesses, eh? Who'd have thought it?.
Okay sorry everyone let us get this big loser out of office and things will be better….
He's ALREADY done HUGE DAMAGE to the tourism business in the USA so I guess he wants tp put the final NAIL in the COFFIN to KILL it! The man is the BIGGEST IDIOT on EARTH!
So a family of 4 from Europe needs to pony up to 60k just to see the Grand Canyon or gamble in Vegas? Yeah if this is true then the tourism industry in this country is cooked.
Hell no I would never pay that is this a joke
I thought this was just for visas and such?
Does it actually matter if it’s limited? It’s uncalled for. What was broken that this would fix?
My question, is he pocketing the money?
Absolutely.
Of course he is. Starting with doge. No, actually starting before he was even in the oval office right after the so called election
The American people are going to have to suffer greatly before we just say no more and force action to be taken. That is crystal clear now. When the GOP aka Gang Of Pedophiles don't play by the rules then it is time to fight fire with fire! Blue states let the gerrymandering begin!
So $1500 each to travel to USA? Sure no one is coming ! Also every nation will do the same to USA! They want to isolate us!
15,000.000
Yes but they are going to let you buy a bond so $1500 to secure. Get back most of it besides the Bond fee! Bond companies make Billions! Nutlick Epsteins neighbor in Manhattan owns 3 bond companies! His wealth has tripled in 6 months.
Is this for real?
www.forbes.com/sites/suzann...
If Cohen is saying it it’s real.
😡
Ya know what. We deserve everything we get. Democrats are JUST NOW deciding to meet them on the low ground and try to play ball better, no one wants to kick this geriatric fuck nugget and his merry band of dipshits out of the house quicker than a snail's pace... We Fucking Deserve This!
His greed ruins anything worthwhile.
Trump thinks visiting the United States is like getting a membership at one of his country clubs. I guess because he thinks the United States is one of his country clubs.
When he says "America", he means HIMSELF. That's how narcissistic he is.
I suspect the money from the casinos actually was part of the 4600 (ish) transfers to Epstein's Russian bank accounts 🤔
Imho, the U.S. is not worth a $15K bond to visit. 😬
No it is not. No country is worth a $15k admission fee.
And that money goes where, exactly?
Hmmm...great question. It won't go to healthcare or Dept of Ed. That's for sure.
Based on headlines I’ve been seeing about tourism in Vegas I don’t think he’s bankrupted his last casino.
Regular tourists shouldn’t be charged. Make those diplomats and leaders pay their own way instead of costing us billions in taxes to throw them a huge dinner and fancy hotels. They literally travel just to be pampered by other countries.
Making more bank off of the world cup and Olympics. Although, I can see MANY countries boycotting as well as not allowed access by Rubio and his goons.
Fuck this moron. Make him leave!
Is he tariffing people now
I wonder how long until he starts charging people to leave the country too.
That would really be profitable for him & his merry band of criminals!
And his followers will LOVE the idea. gross.
America is the last place I want to visit. Idiots
Yep. He is def isolating us. Def ruining the economy. Oligarchs all over the world will buy up the USA. HE And HIS regime Must be removed.
Everything that Trump and the rest of the Fascists do now is for the goal of isolation. Travel bans, pulling out of the W.H.O., other world organizations.
Just as abusers do . . . isolate their victims.
Exactly
And gaslight, gaslight, gaslight.
Seems fine. just some Canadians being grumpy and people from European countries having less money to spend. Too much socialism.
This is absolute insanity.
Ugh. I’m sure he has no friends.
He is doing the job that Putin hired him to do. He is destroying the American democracy.
And the American economy. And the American alliances.
Problem, is the world deciding that America maybe is not the place they will be coming to after all.
How can anyone be so dumb what an embarrassment
Hopefully lying underground soon
6 feet isn’t even good enough.
😡🤮🤮🤮
Dismantling of our country continues. Authoritarians eventually stop their citizens from traveling out of country
This is my fear.
Tourism is down up to 35% in some cities, hotels and restaurants are closing because they cannot afford to stay open, and this bozo things this will help the economy?
Las Vegas is turning into a ghost town.
This covers what’s happening in the US youtu.be/X4pKOuH1vyQ?...
Stupid Trump
i think this is more of an attempt to keep people out of the united states than to get money
and to keep citizens from leaving...
through legal means at least
He didn't bankrupt them, he used his businesses for money laundering. He had no intention of keeping them open. Bankrupt was just the end game.
It is possible to be money laundering and so inept that you still manage to screw that up too. I think rachel maddow did a show on how he was doing that with real estate but still managing to be very in debt to russians.
That's what I've thought for years as well. It was all a money laundering operation.
Am sure he was able to offset the loses as a tax break for his new company, or something like that.
He has already destroyed the economy RE tourism This will ruin us! Who would pay 15k to visit this dumpster fire of a nation?!🙄 U wanna bet who would not have to pay 15k. I'll give u a hint.....its a color that begins with "W"
He loves movement of money given each transaction allows him a chance to extract some funds.
Tourism is getting so bad in America.. that even the tidy bowl toilet guy refuses to enter our waste waters.
So brilliant- killing us slowly and bankrupting the country
This is what narcissist abusers do - they do whatever it takes to isolate their victims from the world
No visitors = no witnesses The worlds newest pariah state
Good point
Every now and then I make one!
As if people need another reason not to come here.
Just another reason to avoid going to usa
Oh, like I needed one.
Insane!
It's not a charge, it's a bond, but yes, it will reduce the numbers of visitors and students to the US.
To ALL Businesses that support/supported TRUMP. NA NA --- YOU are getting what YOU PAID FOR, HIS profit, your $$$ loses & OUR Pain and suffering. So enjoy KISSING YOUR PROFITS GOODBYE. youtu.be/TV6WWT3zCEc?...
This song could apply to our economy, our democracy, healthcare, social services, education, research, etc
TRUMP IS INSANE. WHERE ARE THE EPSTEIN FILES ?
Sounds like a Dictatorship
just like any country that can manipulate elections with Mr Gerry Mander...I guess. They are more than likely called DICTATORSHIP.... and Guess what USA....thats what The current govt is aiming for... and its bloody close kids
Fucking hell I think you should be paying people 15k to visit that shithole
The blueprints are all there. We are the victims, he is the abuser. He cuts off all connections to outside allies that could threaten his position of power, gaslights us on the value of our input and questions our intelligence, lashes out in abuse when we confront him directly, threatens to destroy
Brilliantly stated!!!!!! I was thinking it. You said it grandiloquently
Classic abusive partner. Makes promises to get you to buy in. Once you're committed, starts the abuse, increasing over time. Blames you for making him do it. Makes you feel too ashamed to ask for help. Recall his first wife said he raped her (then she recanted).
Sounds just like the cycle of a domestic abuser, except he never brings us flowers or apologizes before the next beating. 😫
Nah, the flowers are the nice words and honeymoon treatment before it all goes to fuck again. The bar get’s lower based on a victim’s confidence and sense of self worth. I hate this timeline.
"America is the greatest country in the world. People will come from all over because they want to be here." - a moocher
😅
Once upon a time. Now I'm hoping for a way out
Golly, I wonder which airlines will go bankrupt first?
He is not interessted in such daily issues anymore if he ever were. He believes what some of his believers believe. He believes he is Jesus 😂
Exactly. They might as well just shut down all overseas flights. And the Olympics…
Shouldn’t that really read, #America will pay $15,000 to anyone willing to visit? I would step foot in that filthy fascist shithole for a million!! If I had my way, I would build a wall around America, and shoot anyone who tries to leave. The world is done with #TACO and the #US.
This imbecile needs to go
Note; this is a bond and only applicable to "some countries" that have a history of people overstaying their visas. In addition, there will also be a $250.00 "Fee" for all foreign visitors in 2026.
Ain't nobody in their right mind want to pay that kind of money to come to Trump's America.
No one in their right mind should come here right now at all. I sure as heck wouldn’t.
From Europe: Correct. bsky.app/profile/did:...
Only those who wish to visit and witness historic parallels with a dark past …….
I’d much prefer not to be witnessing it.
💯….You are joined by countless sensible humans ✔️
Question: What can you do about it? They say step 1 is mass protests. Which requires engagement and enough people seeing the quagmire the current path is headed towards.
From Europe: 💯 bsky.app/profile/did:...
There will be zero visits now, no tourism whatsoever. Fucking genius.
TRUMP IS PURPOSELY DESTROYING OUR ECONOMY OUR SOCIETY AND OUR DEMOCRACY. It’s not because he’s a stupid moe foe it’s b/c he hates Americans, because most sane Americans can’t stand him, and never could. Putin found the perfect psychopath for the job. Republicans are greedy enough to just watch.
Exactly this.
It's not just US that HATE him, so DOES most of the WORLD! Even other DICTATORS DON'T LIKE him, but they are willing to PRETEND to so they can USE him to their advantage because they KNOW he's STUPID & GULLIBLE just like his supporters!
That’s b/c he isn’t an intelligent charismatic sicko he’s an ignorant crass bombastic psychopath that this corrupt system needs to entertain his idiot following. Donald Drumpf is the clown in the circus, that’s all. The Heritage Foundation is the tent and SCOTUS is the tent pole that enabled it all
I agree & the Justice system has a whole IS responsible too because they've ALWAYS let him off EASY even when he's been found guilty! All they've EVER done is FINE him, but NEVER gave him JAIL time even though he's a REPEAT OFFENDER! Anyone else would've been in JAIL with their 1st CONVICTION!🤬
If our justice system was actually meant to deliver justice Donald Drumpf would be in prison instead of the Oval Office.
Exactly and he would've been put there LONG ago as he's been committing CRIMES for DECADES! Then he NEVER would've even been on the BALLOT!
Exactly!
It’s a system built by wealthy white men meant to protect wealthy white criminals, and it does just that.
Yep, you're exactly right! America has ALWAYS put RICH people on some special PEDESTAL & given them SPECIAL treatment NO MATTER what they do which is WHY we're NOW a DICTATORSHIP!🤬
If you can watch The Family on Netflix it’s a docu-series that explains how this sick movement of fake Christians got going. They actually say that the wealthy are Gods “chosen ones” that they are the best people. It’s as far from the teachings of Jesus as one can get. Greed is the root of all evil.
I totally agree! GREED is at the ROOT of ALL that is happening! If they were TRUE Christians they WOULD KNOW that WEALTH DOES NOT get you into heaven! In fact the Bible says "it's easier for a camel to fit thru the eye of a needle than for a RICH man to get into heaven"!
This is what I've been saying! He hates Americans! It's punishment towards poor people and anybody not wealthy or in "his group".
He comes from an immigrant crime family that never integrated to the norms, mores, culture or laws of the US. He hates the US and the people. He likes the ignorant (quoting him on that one).
But he’s also really effing stupid.
Definitely. It’s obvious the system he bemoans as rigged is definitely rigged in the wealthy white mans favor, or he’d have been jailed decades ago.
Absolutely. They want a destroyed nation and a population made up of slaves that willingly succumb to their deranged thinking.
💯
You forgot morally corrupt in every way. Fucking idiots want to cling to power so badly that they will scorch earth what they have. Enjoy bing in charge of nothing asshats!
They will be fine on their yacht’s as if nothing is wrong. That’s the problem with an oligarchy they won’t experience what they implement onto our society. It’s time to start drilling holes in those yachts. They all come to shore somewhere. A world effort can destroy them quickly. Yes it can.
The perfect psychopath for the job….truly
This part!!! it’s in his blood to hate America…🤔
Evidently Donald wanted to be accepted by the elite of the NY high society, but he’s too crass and bombastic, his insecurities rule him. So like todays magas he blames others for his shortcomings and instead of working hard to better one’s self he regressed and became vengeful. Sound familiar?
🤨 it’s German blood in those veins
Consider #OligarchAgenda They want to collapse our system so they can create an environment for #ANewConstitution #Project2025
I also find it suspicious that studies have shown that during hard times, humans have a tendency to become more religious as a way to cope and now that we have Christian Nationalists in charge who think everyone should follow their religion they're purposely making life harder
I don’t think I can roll my eyes that far back! With this kind of bullshit coming out of the White House why would anyone want to come here! And I get it to see family, but to vacation?
Yea because so many people have 15k to put up as collateral right before vacationing. 🙄🙄
That’s why he’s bankrupting USA now.
Canada and every other country with Trump businesses in them should charge Trump the maximum tax possible for every one of his his hotels and business interests in their respective countries.
I just looked, and both of the "Trump towers" he built here in Canada (Toronto & Vancouver) flopped and are now owned & managed by other companies. I don't think he has much here, and I am super happy.
Maybe that was the source of all his annexation talk - the frustrated little boy within the big ogre not getting his way.
They should require him to charge “1,000% less” for his rooms in those hotels.
They probably will, but only once he's out of power. Too many entities feel it's just easier giving the baby what he wants (since he's actually bad at getting good deals) than to risk the wrath of a dumb criminal with too much power. It's a shame, but it's not their fault anyways, it's ours.
Never OUR fault as long as politicians are allowed to lie, cheat and self-deal.
Just charge him an "asshole tax." I increased my prices on my known MAGA clients. I secretly call it "an asshole tax."
That is awesome!!!
The would be the fitting retribution
Yes!!!!!!!! Can’t use his public office (legally) to respond! Brilliant!!!
Scotland should start Go Fund me pages for their dRump employees and let his golf club/courses turn to shit
I think we should use Trump math for this and charge 1500%.
What ever countries he has business in should claim eminent domain, seize his properties and never let him back in the country
And they should constantly inspect his businesses for safety, etc.
Great idea👍🏻
Just revoke all his permits. His hotels can’t operate without some consent from the countries he’s operating in. He’s a known felon why should any government allow him to operate a business within their borders. IL could the Chicago Ttower with some pressure.
When will there be an agreement between the EU and Canada?
No, they should charge him 10 or 20 times the maximum tax. Trump ignores the laws and makes shit up as he goes to suit his purposes so he should be made to live under those same kind of conditions where ever and when ever possible.
Collect the money he owes that he's never paid and arrest him if he doesn't comply.
A good way to increase international tourism outside of the United States right now is to discount Americans to travel abroad. We will gladly leave.
And who would gladly have us?
There have been more American tourists this year than any I've seen. It's... irritating TBH. I'm sure some are lovely, but boy are the ones I've seen rude, arrogant, and so, so loud.
I’m sorry you’re facing that. As an American I’ve met a lot of rude Americans while traveling overseas. Not all appreciate that things are different in other countries but to me the whole purpose is experiencing different culture, lifestyle, and history.
I feel the same with British football hooligans, and the folks that go to Ibiza etc. It's mortifying - demanding English breakfasts etc. The ones that I've seen this year don't get that this isn't the US. No, bread isn't free, the tip is added anyway, and the plumbing is older than the US!
I guess the nice ones will put a Canadian flag on their backpack like in the 60s.
They think we can't tell, but then again the fact they're desperate to not seem American wins my vote!
White people are out of control
Evergreen
Friggin idiot
WE need a national televised rally exposing Trump every week. We need unity.
That would get the truth out but no station/channel would cover it because they’re all his propaganda media
Genius, eh?
One third did. One third didn’t and one third couldn’t be bothered voting So. America you own this shite your inflicting on the rest of the world.
SHE WON 💙 thiswillhold.substack.com/p/ex-cia-whi...
I refuse to take the blame for this. I voted correctly> I canvassed, called, and registered voters. This is all on the misogynistic, the racist, and the angry about Palestine voters, who intentionally refused to support Kamala Harris, or to vote at all.
That's false info. Majority of us sane American's voted for common sense. He literally ADMITTED to cheating and smiled about it. Harris was the legitimate winner. Not an assumption. We still support other countries standing against the felon. youtu.be/F9gCyRkpPe8?...
Tourism employs 18M people across the US. Make no mistake, this is simply another way for the Trump-pedo-cans to isolate us from the world. The eventual goal is to be like 1950s Russia where no one can leave and no one wants to visit.
🤣
He also just wants to cut off America completely from the rest of the world it seems. Very Handmaids Tale
Like we would still go there lol. Meanwhile China has Visa free travel...
It’s a DO NOT ENTER sign.
How do you spell it? DUMB?
I see why he is bankrupt of anything more than constant lies.
💫💸We’ve been warned previously about the dangers of this money-grabbing behavior…
Also, it's a crime to not visit the US now.
that is madness. he's lost it. completely gone. how much more absolute absurdity will the GOP let him get away with? this could end today if just a few ppl had enough conjones. #article25 now!
They've sold their souls for a power and cash grab. Newsflash: The party that screamed about "Hillary and the Deep State" ARE the deep state.
And MAGA think its great they're so racist they even hate tourists
He thinks he's being a tough guy, forcing these people and countries to pay more in tariffs and fees. They're just not going to pay and stop coming and trading. America loses in this stupid moronic stubborn pissing contest. He's the only contestant and he's still losing.
Except the piss isn’t flying in his face; it’s ours.
Unfortunately, that is the case.
Oh to be DEAD rich. What a legacy this moronic mango leaves to the US. Hopefully the Mini mangos disappear when he does.
Yes. He’s a fucking moron.
We, at least, are smelling the piss meantime.
Yes
What blows my mind is how d GOP has CONSTANTLY & continues to stick their tongues up their a$$ess while we ALL suffer. Can’t imagine ANY DEM doing that & d GOP remaining silent!!!!!! Hope that affects red states the most & bankrupts many MAGATs!
Also an analogy for Magas trying to "own the libs."
Oh, for sure!
That picture is NOT to scale. There’s no way the 🍊🤡 micropenis sticks out past his zipper. That’s why PedoPrez likes 12-13 year old girls, their hands are still small enough to grab it 🤮
I think it’s his way to have more monopolies. Less competition more intimidation and his buddies make more money. Smaller business go bankrupt and his people buy it up and they do a squeeze/power grab.
Well, of course he doesn't give shit how destructive it is to the "regular" people, as long as his cronies make out okay. Hey, Casa!
Hey Eggz! Only way to survive will be to grease the palms and get stained orange at this rate.
It sure seems that way, unfortunately.
Cheetonomics!
100%!
The reality is he just the distraction for everything being done behind the scenes.
He's isolating America from the rest of the world - the global elite are breaking the world up into manageable pieces.
True that
Considering this guy is incontinent, he is quite good at pissing intercontinental tariffs.
it would help if people called the tariffs ' trump import tax ' no other countries pay trump import tax - its paid by USA importers
a SKY News ' journalist ' said on tv that Trump is telling countries ' how much they owe ' the economic illiteracy is imbedded in society . Not one country sends the USA a single penny to pay TIT .
Maybe an acronym will get more attention? lol
Trump Import Tax - TIT 😂
TITs Up!
😆
And they don't pay the tariffs. Tariffs are an import tax.
😂🤣
he doesn't believe that, nor does anyone in his administration. this is a move to make taxes even more regressive. you raise consumption taxes so you can cut taxes for billionaires and massive conglomerates. federal sales tax wouldn't fly politically, but people are dumb enough to swallow this.
We're ALL losing.
💯 This gets more and more asinine with each passing day.
I believe he knows this is the outcome. He knows it only damages the democracy. It's the actual point of the strategy. Same as with "war", the piss ends up in the faces of free people. America may be set up to fail, to get crushed and destroyed from within, and on purpose. imo
Tariffs are basically a regressive sales tax so those that have the lowest income pay the highest percentage of their income in tax. As the working poor are less than human to Trump he doesn't give a stuff and is happy to pile them on.
trump loves to reference McKinley who signed the Dingley Act, tariff aimed at luxury goods by the time it was ended it was determined the COL had jumped 25% impacting the poor more than the rich, also ushered in the fed income tax bec the rich couldn’t spend enough & the poor too poor to fund a govt
I doubt that Trump even knows this piece of U.S. history. However, the architects of Project 2025 probably do.
he’s known as the tariffs president, he had his own puppeteer in a man named Mark Hanna(friend of the gilded age wealth) McKinley ran on imperialism, protectionism, tariffs & the gold standard, actually created the post civil war repub party domination across the nation w/his protectionist promises
One of the worst presidents EVER, but T is 100,000x worse. So he's got that going for him
MAGA RANK AND FILE IS a cult. They don’t care. GOP is lining their pockets.
And still, our national debt skyrockets whenever he's in office.
Tariff is CRAY, system. Out dated.
I Kept My Promise to My Dad. To never vote for the union-busting. PR.cKs. The Piss Down Effect. EVERY DOG has their day. Keep Lying.
CRAY super computers ?
Convicted Felon Donald Trump Democrats know refusing to comply with court orders can lead to various consequences for a president, including civil or criminal contempt and imprisonment. Democrats going to imprison you for all the crimes against humanity you are committing. youtu.be/SpBVAuc6VzA?...
So far, it looks like the Dems have done nothing. We'll, nothing substantive. I'm hoping for the US (and other countries too) that this changes.
This is ideal if they actually wish to try
lol. Lmao, even
Hopeful
What do you expect from a criminal???
What Was He doing? The Roof Scene. 🤣 trying To Levitate the Whitehouse.
The Comments were Great. 🤣🤣🤣
NICE.
🤣🤣🤣
The democrats dragged their feet for four years of the Biden administration in an attempt to appear nonpartisan. How’d that go? Meanwhile, Trump is openly going after political opponents with zero regard for how partisan it looks.
Biden mistakenly thought his election meant the nation had returned to normal, he was so rooted in bipartisan politics he couldn’t imagine himself going to war against the gop, or against precedent, sadly his decision to run again bec he saw himself as the best weapon against trump hurt Harris
That's why I didn't vote for him. I knew he couldn't defeat Trump.
well it’s tough to win when you don’t vote for him and he wasn’t on the Nov ballot so you basically voted for trump, your logic is faulty
They don’t care if the poor die. And they don’t want any government because that means regulations. So—win win for the christofascist assholes.
Spoiler alert: we abandon legacy media, we organise and we don’t vote for anyone who’s beholden to corporate donors. We can check their voting records and share them, so we know when what they say isn’t what they do. Doesn’t matter if they’re red or blue.
He loves to refer to him but he also doesn't mention that he was ousted because of the tariffs and how much they wrecked the country.
actually McKinley was assassinated in Buffalo resulting in a Teddy Roosevelt admin, he supported the Dingley Act, dem Woodrow Wilson replaced it in 1913, tariffs at the time funded the govt but McKinley both authored as a congressman & signed as president 2 of the most detrimental tariffs in history
McKinley was assassinated. Probably related to the tariffs.
anarchist convinced McKinley oppressed the working class & had a corrupt admin, considering child labor was still permitted, poverty was rampant, population was basically uneducated & sickly, workers put in 70hr wk for terribly low wages, life was tough, he was hoping to create an anarchist movement
Anarchists aren't always wrong. Let's see how this plays out.
Another former president Trump tries to emulate is Andrew Jackson.
definitely, his image is in the oval office, known for his kitchen cabinet where he sought advice from friends not professionals, the trail of tears, one of the largest displays of outward hatred in US history, pushed for industrialization to provide low paying jobs to the common man & child labor
We know. Basically.
Import taxes
Project 2025 called for a national sales tax…
🤣 🤣
Yep. Hey Sharyn!
Hey friend 👋🏽
It Is Like Pi..ing in A fan.
Yep, very apt description.
Just As We Always Said About Republicans trickle effect.
🤣
He bankrupted a casino. A business rigged to print money. That’s not just failure, that’s a masterclass in incompetence. Trump turned a guaranteed profit machine into rubble, then called himself a genius. If losing at a rigged game is your brand, maybe sit the presidency out next time. Big Loser.
That fan should have been a windmill.
😆Yes, it should have!
yep! You got that right!
That really is way it seems.
Actually I’d say it’s even tinier than that. Even tinier than his hands!
😆
What brain?
1500%
😆His neural connections have been reduced by 1500%
LOL hahaha
“That man ain’t right in his head.”
😆Damn right!
rumor has it he likes that very much. under this theory this is krasnov's version of masturbation.
The American people are the losers.
No doubt!
I hope it continues to backfire bigly.
That would be nice!
And when the 🌏 responds in kind? 🤔 He’s cutting us off from the world. This isn’t merely isolationism. It’s a regime concealing crimes against humanity.
Yes, his strategy, if you can call it that, seems to be total isolationism.
Again, it’s worse than we think. Anyone believe this regime wants a historical record of its atrocities? A growing number of media outlets are simply not sounding the alarm…unwilling to put themselves in the regime’s sights. Alligator Alcatraz is just the beginning…
I am really afraid you are right. It's hard to ignore how much a lot of this shit in the open is probably just a distraction for the more egregious shit happening behind the scenes.

Nothing is ever as it appears with this monster. It’s always gonna be worse than we could possibly imagine.
The ‘Free Press’ better get its butt in gear.
They aren't really free, they've subjugated themselves to this asshole and his gang.
We are paying the tariffs.
Trump really doesn’t understand economics, and that is because as his professor said, he didn’t pay attention because he thinks he knows it all.
Trump’s delivering on the $2BIL contract to whack democracy, he signed when he sold his soul to the Bank of Hitler & Putin (DeutscheBank) It’s a twisted #GDTA (Global Dictator Thug Axis) GOAL of impunity & deviancy, not incompetence. Chaos is why Trump was hired…and chaos is what he’s delivering.
And the DEIA Working Class party is paying the price for the $Trump tarifftax. $Trumponomics is going to bankrupt the USA.
They won’t buy a plane ticket to come he now. What a stupid ass idea.
Either they come and he pockets the fees and/or the tourism industry crashes, empty air bnb means his oligarch friends get to buy them all up. 1000x out of work, lose their jobs, guess whose waiting to snatch up their homes?? The big picture is NOT GOOD.
Really, can he do this? Or is this what Congress will agree to, to make it legal? Sieg Heil.
😂
Demented fool
If we could, we wouldn't need the AI.
People have to *want* to improve, not wallow in their ignorance.
"First, catch a hare" Mrs Beeton's recipe for Jugged Hare.
No taxes is easy when there aren’t any tips to fret about.
Someone in that fascist regime should apprise that orange dumbass felon that, because of him, NO One wants to come here now! Even IF he GIVES tickets away. #TrumpIsDangerous
The beatings will continue until morale improves.
LOL, and still he is not removed from office lol. MAGA is the dumbest political movement ever.
He didn’t need to do that most Europeans wouldn’t set foot in the country while that cesspit of racism and racism is in charge

Of course, that is always the Republican distraction: drag in Democrats who have retired from government years ago.
Those are his qualifications for the presidency.
Democrats support Democracy the LGBTQIA+ and a woman's right to have a safe and legal abortion. Republicans support molesting children, sexually assaulting men and women and rape.
Saying tRUMP is bad at math is the understatement of the decade!
Math is the devil of the educated.
Only CERTAIN persons from CERTAIN countries would have to pay to travel here. Where from? Mostly from African countries. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
“Mostly African countries”, but, lemme guess,…. South Africa is not on the list.
He just wants to increase the number of people to have no desire to travel to the U S of A. His ICE goons are also helping to dissuade people from coming as well as they may also be picked up and deported to another country where they don't speak the lingo.
What’s wrong with his empty head?
It’s the constant echoing of the sounds that pass from one ear thru the empty chambers and out the other. Check out this video from this search, grinch. you're an idiot video share.google/7sbzkEeTCsur...
How much longer will the GOP keep normalizing this insanity?
Until the concentration camps are full.
or the refrigerated morgue trucks start filling the hospital parking lots.
It's hilarious to think anyone would want to visit right now.
Problem is mate that the world cup is on next year. England will likely get a game in the US. What happens to our brown and black away supporters? Will we be rounded up but ICE?
His desire is to isolate the United States. He's doing a great job. If course, we are now the place where no one wants to visit. F Trump
And the 15,000 will go where? Trump, no one will pay to come to the US, the world is full of other places, remember your buddy bezos had his wedding in Europe

MIDTERMS: VOTE DEMOCRAT.
I’ve said 100 times to my friends Trump‘s good at one thing ……bankruptcy. Sadly, this country is gonna become bankrupt because of his mother effort will all pay the price
We share the same views. I don't understand why we should hand over the country to someone like him. Do those Republicans have negative IQs?
I agree 100%, I wish there was an easy answer, but ignorance is not bliss….i thought it was but my goodness the damage his MF is doing ……sad
Yes, I didn't expect our views and ideas to be so similar. We can chat privately and share our perspectives on the current development of our country. What do you think?
Sure, it’s could be a good way to better understand and manage this crazy time
Yes, I agree with your point of view. But I found that I can't send you a private message. You can send me a private message to facilitate our more pleasant communication.
Because he's a fucking moron.
"Great Businessman" & "Greatestist Deal Maker" ... absolute scam. Now, *Greatest Conman*, sure. Zero doubt. "A sucker born every minute."
Why did we suddenly become a country that lets one guy run everything? And why did let it be the dumbest guy we could find?
✋Um, I'll take this one: -Gerrymandering and the MSM Propaganda machine gave them a majority in the House AND Senate. -GOP FAILED to convict him when they had the chance -They're afraid of Putin; not Trump -The SCOTUS full of right-wing, "for sale " Christo-fascists declared him KING
...and too many people stopped caring.
