As they should. Don't be stupid, do not come to a fascist country. You have zero protections here and everything is way too fucking expensive. Is that worth jail time? Because there's a chance the racist POS goonsquad will kidnap you.

Why would I risk getting arrested and held for months for no reason, maybe even deported to a concentration camp in El Salvador, while going on holiday? I could think of other less awful destinations.
not a boycott.
if McDonald's has a new CEO, and his first move is to replace the meat with literal human shit, he can't call it a boycott...
Truth is it ia dangerous for anyone to visit the US, that isn't a boycott, it's self preservation
Yeah, I agree that boycott is really not the right way to describe what's happening here
Theyre not doing it in coordinated protest, they just dont wanna fuckin come here 😅. Can't imagine why, its like a historical reenactment, you can step back in time to when everything was worse! What a cool vacation /s
I live in an area with a huge number of Canadian snowbirds in a normal year. This year there are almost none.
I'm not sure it's exactly a boycott so much as "yeah I don't want to be sent to a concentration camp"
It’s not just tourists. International conferences held in the US are seeing record low attendance.
Why would I want to visit a third world country rife with civil unrest and government sponsored domestic terrorism?
Yeah who wants to end up in a concentration camp?
And how the fuck is it only a 5.5% decline? Why are 94.5% of travelers still risking their lives?
I’m pretty sure anyone who visits to see family or similar is considered tourist, because they’d have a tourism visa. So the real percentage of I guess discretionary tourism is probably down much more than 5.5%.
I think the earlier person had it right (discretionary vs non discretionary travel) but it's also worth noting that for most other countries, tourism is booming this year. So if everyone else rose say even 10% US tourism declined relative to everyone else at 15 or so.
I'm boycotting vacations in the United States and I'm an American. I just got back from a 4-day weekend in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Other countries deserve our vacation dollars more than ours does. Until it stops being led by children making stupid fucking decisions.
As a joke I asked a cashier at the NSLC where the bourbon was. She laughed. She knew I was fucking with her. For those not in the know, Canada boxed up all their bourbon and sent it back in retaliation to all of Trump's bullshit with tariffs and what not.
And now it's a good chance it's permanent. Twice Idiot Americans voted for this fat, bloated racist cow and honestly, tourists not visiting is only a small part of the damage and shrinkage stupid Americans have brought to the United States. Scientist are also considering leaving or not coming to the US now that's to Idiot Americans and we've had some very high profile scientists already moved to other countries and that's even more worrisome for the US.
I would strongly advise you, do NOT travel here. If you must, stick to major cities. If you aren't white and fluent in the American dialect of English, you may be in danger of an ICE raid even then.
Above all, stay out of the interior. It's a different world, and you might find yourself at the mercy of some local warlord (spelled "constitutional sheriff").
almost like they regard it as a shithole country as Rump liked to say about others
I'm in the US, and I am kinda surprised that it's only a 5.5% decline.
So essentially for every 18 tourists we used to get, now we still get 17. That seems like a lot. I'm sure we'll drive it much lower. Ugh.
It’s incredibly expensive here, plus you have no rights as a foreigner in this country. Stay away from the US.
A restaurant near me has been relying on a nearby foreign exchange program, basically employing all of them.
They are possibly going under due to lack of staff. My area has a low population. The foreign exchange students aren't coming this year. They're down to weekends only with a couple teenagers trying to keep it afloat.
"Trump is going to get people to respect America again." Average FL Trump cultist.
Is it really a boycott when the USA doesn't want people entering? There are too many stories about citizens of formerly allied countries that ended up in jail.
The 10% full world cup stadiums will be hilarious
The Daily Beast has contacted the White House for comment.
THE DAILY SLOP (AS I LIKE TO CALL IT) IS TOTALLY WRONG ON THIS, LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE. ALL THESE PEOPLE FROM SHITHOLE CUNTRIES WANT TO COME HERE, SO MANY THAT WE CANT KEEP THEM ALL OUT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER....
Why would you come here, just to get interrogated at the border, with the very real possibility that you would be denied entry, wasting your entire vacation? And that's your best case scenario.
Just hope the FIFA World Cup collapses in shameful empty stadiums... not just because of the orange pedophile but also because FIFA is corrupt to the core
I know of people desperately selling tickets at cost (which is absurdly expensive) and have not found a single bite in weeks so I very much doubt they are selling as FIFA likes to pretend.
Sudden vision : Next they will pay people to go and watch so they won't show the failure of empty stadions on every tv around the world.
oh I'm sure they would but they won't be able to hide the massive shortfall
ive heard they trying to sell them on the subreddits to related to to fifa tickets. they were mostly laughed at and removed posts.
Should I count myself lucky, the face won't be broadcast in my country.
I live in an area with a huge number of Canadian snowbirds in a normal year. This year there are almost none.
5.5% decline. Those are fucking rookie numbers, bump that shit up to 80%.
Yeah my thoughts too, only 5.5%?! wtf world have you not seen the news, run away!
the news, MSMs arnt reporting it thats why, likely if people remain ignorant and its not being reported, it must not be bad to them.
Its on top of a 14% decline the previous year. so thats 1 out of every 5 people who were travelling to the US for any reason in 2024 (including business and family visits which realistically are never going to be cancelled) not going to the US in 2026.
Thats a huge drop.
That's why I boycott Sony. It's nuts to me that they're still in business after deliberately adding malware to their products.
Nobody wants to end up in an ICE concentration camp for not looking white American enough or speaking with a foreign accent.
Good. We don't deserve your money right now, and you don't deserve our bullshit.
I hope Canada never forgets that America openly voted for, and celebrated this. I hope we as a nation never trust America ever again.
We should never trust your government, and we should never trust your population to ever do the right thing ever again. I hope this stain lingers on America forever.
4 million fewer international visitors ....... Foreign visitor spending also fell by more than $8 billion.
That's $2000 per tourist. Who is willing to pay $2000 for the chance to meet ICE?
They don't want to end up in a choke hold for nine minutes or with speed holes in the head.
Canada and mexico strangely up something like 10%
Oh, you mean tourists coming to Canada and Mexico, not tourists coming from those places to the US. Because Canadians have significantly reduced visits to their southern neighbour (one estimate is that they are down 42%).
Trump is the best thing to happen to the CDN economy in 50 years. Tourism way up, and we are severing from US industry irreversibly.
He's the GOAT at own-goals, no wonder FIFA gave him an award.
and we are severing from US industry irreversibly.
That is an unmitigated tragedy. Different places on earth are better for making different things. Trade between people is as old and essential as civilization itself. I get why Canada is doing that right now because the US is a disaster, but let’s not pretend blowing up all relations is a good thing.
We are making new partners worldwide and no longer trusting anyone. Canada has been fucked over by the US since Eisenhower shut down our aeronautics industry with his Conservative puppet.
Fuck around...find out. Throw out legal trade agreements? we can now pivot to other, better markets.
Tariffs on cars? Good. We opened up to other countries that don't just sell shitty trucks. EVs inbound from China and France. Maybe we can stop subsidizing US assembly plants in Canada with our healthcare.
America literally has nothing Canada or any other nation needs that they can't get from another country. America is literally a resource leech that offers nothing in return.
The world is better off without America. Congrats on your oranges or something.
There's a particular reason America has always had a global trade deficit.
You do see how shipping produce across an ocean is an environmental tragedy, right? Again, I agree that Canada is doing the right thing given the circumstances but describing the situation like it’s a good thing is unhinged.
We should also be boycotting USA until they honour their treaties with the tribes.
WHY is this Important part of our ECONOMY happening? JUST because there's an EXTREMELY High chance of them Ending up in Prison or Deported to a Country they've never been to all for Posting a Meme about our Dear Leader DOESNT mean they should AVOID us!
These stories are shared worldwide.
Two teen German girls strip searched (that's American for sexually assaulted).
5.5 percent decline
People who want to visit that cancer country have no political awareness hence these neglectable numbers.
Like the vulgar crowd going to the tourist trap that is Dubai know nothing about what an awful backward and evil shithole the emiRats are.
You call it boycotting the US, i call it don't want to risk getting in trouble.
Anyone still visiting the USA for any reason other than a life-threatening situation is an active and knowing supporter of fascism, and deserves whatever atrocities occur to them whilst there.
Zero sympathies.
