Which the administration wants to completely either defund or sell to private parties, what is there to visit in the US?

Sorry, whether it’s for culture or food, or history or architecture, there are so many other countries I would want to visit over the US. Can’t find a way to be a booster for American tourism, when it doesn’t deserve it.

Oh and I don’t think people like end up being arbitrarily “detained” (what most people call arrested or kidnapped) for no reason by masked thugs with 3 letter acronyms.

If Americans gave a fuck about their tourism industry it wouldn’t have elected this psychopath. It frankly deserves to feel the consequences. I hope people in the industry feel the pain.
