Their citizens about ICE obstructing travel.

"Ireland, The Netherlands, Denmark, the United Kingdom, Germany, Finland and Canada have updated their travel guidelines after some travelers from these nations encountered detention by immigration officials "

The Poor Boys, ......errr Proud Boys.....pretending to be ICE agents, indiscriminate detention of anyone who looks different, is stopping tourism. too.

If I have a choice to visit a place where I would be hassled, like say Russia, China, North Korea, Iran and the US, and a place where they welcome foreigners to visit, guess which one I'm picking? Paris looks beautiful in the summer.

And many parts of the US are suffering a housing and real estate crash. It's not as bad as 2007 or 2008....yet. All part of the pedo Trump's failing economy. Just handing our tax dollars to the filthy-rich will only ensure the wealth will be hoarded even tighter. I see no signs of investment in the US economy at all.
