The Guardian - UK:
US tourism experiences a 'Trump slump'

Reader Comments on the article:
----------------- There are plenty of other nice places to visit in the world where you won't spend hours being bullied and interrogated at the border and don't have to worry about being shot, either by criminals or by the police.
Why take the risk?
------------------------ RockSmithlol BS. The yanks have always been snotty about who they let in, try going if you have a bust for weed.
------------------------ Dunebug RockSmithlol That is a shame considering you can legally light up in some states now.
----------------------- Why would you want to go to America? There's nuts with guns everywhere.
----------------- Amazing countryside. Friendly people.
I did a road trip there (east to west) a couple of years back. Had an incredible time.
Having said that I would hold off for a year and wait till everything settles down a bit. :-/
---------------- 4 years.
--------------------- Trump's dump. This creature will create so many problems before he has finished offloading his bizarre ideas.
------------------- Like protecting the US population and putting them back to work? Not that bizarre, I'd say.
---------------------------- Charliedaz Oh no, that opening has put a vision in my mind that I wish I could shake off.
---------------------- Eh? US unemployment is less than 5%, isn't it? That's better than the entire 'boom' period of the 80s under Reagan.
And protecting them? I thought he was against gun control? 'Cos there's far more danger to Americans from legally-possessed guns than there is from terrorism.
-------------------------- Maybe I'll go when he's here for his "state visit".
------------------- There will be work to be done here if he does come.
Will the strange woodland creature that lives on his head be quarantined?
-------------------------- Stay in UK, go to his visit, and turn your back on him.
--------------------- dam ned This is a complete nonsense story.
I just wish I could afford to holiday in America.
------------------ I wish you could too...To experience the American border process is to truly see how far a once great nation has fallen.
------------------------ Not surprised.
I flew to NY for work two weeks ago on United and I have never been on such an empty plane.
Everyone had a row to themselves and there were still empty rows. Lucky if it was a third full.
Personally I wondered if I would look back on it the way someone visiting Germany in 1934 might have done. If it wasn't a long-standing work commitment I wouldn't have gone.
------------------------ James Parsons When do you think Trump will turn on the Brownshirts and have a 'night of the long knives'?
-------------------- Get a grip.
---------------------- Never see the sun then NY is for you. They need to demolish Manhattan and put a tree up.
---------------------- Too many lunatics running the asylum for my liking and it's getting very expensive to go there.
