The whole world should voluntarily ban travel to the US. They want to be isolationist, let’s give them what they want.

“They” is a pretty broad brush 😭

I assume that the people who boycott American (US) products, would also boycott travelling to the US

What the hell is their beef with St Kitts?

Turkmenistan Too?

Last I checked, Turkmenistan’s entire economy had been turned towards the project of sucking off their former president (who is the dad of the current president) by building lots of garish statues, museums, hotels with his name and face on them. One would think that sort of thing would be right up Donny’s alley.

Is the former president a white supremacist? That’s the requirement for Trump support.

Given how buddy-buddy he is with Erdogan and Modi, I don’t think that’s strictly true – but no, with a name like Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow (really!), perhaps there are some prejudices at play…

And Saint Lucia, they love the USA because of their hospital and water system. Or something like that, according to the one local I talked to.

Cuba (full ban on travel)

Christ will the US just leave Cuba alone already. You won the Cold War (ignoring recent events), just let them be

Surprised to not see Canada, Denmark and Panama on the list. Although I guess Trump really wants to INCREASE travel there.
