I wanted to visit before the collapse, but it didn't work out for multiple reasons.
Now I'm doubly sad that I didn't go. Because if I would indeed decide to go now, it would be a coin toss if a random typo in some papers would land me in a gulag

Disneyland tickets are now affordable?
I don't blame anyone, there is no need to personally see the circus that is our country currently. Watch the circus from stands unless you want to be a part of it.
Well people don't want to be sold into slavery to El Salvador. Big surprise!
Only 20 to 30%?
Those charts are soon going to look a lot worse. I know of many people who had already paid for their vacation before the tariffs were announced, so they went anyway. New bookings for flights from Canada to the U.S. are down over 70%.
For sure family summer holidays are the sort of thing most people would be planning round about now. The lines at Disney World are going to be shorter this yearโฆ
Yeah I think so too.
People have always talked about a long weekend in New York or a cruise from Miami.
Now it's just dead. No mention of the US at all, other than the blithering baboon.
Would not want to be a trans atlantic airliner this sunmer
At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if you are trans-atlantic, their DEI policy mistakes this for something LGBT-related and you face automatic detention.
Same was reported for Canada this week. Go team fuck the US!
Go MAGA get SAD-GA
Not doing too badly with the UK tourists yet. Lets double down on British cuisine to entice them over.
Totally understandable, a lot of us who live here wish we didn't right now.
You guys deserve better than this. I hope you get justice
Thanks. We've been through worse, just not in my lifetime. I feel bad for the effects America has on the rest of the world. IMO the US should be a group of smaller countries. But then we've still got China and Russia, so I dunno. I just wish people all over didn't let so many assholes be in charge - but that's always been a problem.
I actually am an EU-federalist mostly because big countries exist, and I'd rather be one than be bullied by one.
Trump brought tourism back to the US lmao suck it libs ๐คฃ (sarcasm, obviously)
Yeah, I don't want to get detained for a week and sent to el salvador.
Marketing opportunity - TWO countries for the price of ONE!!!
I guess that pineapple they are fucking you with has a silver lining
i really hope the majority of countries boycott the 2028 games and don't show up in la.
Nazi Germany, China and Russia/Soviet Union set a rather bad precedent for this.
Attendance will double you say?
Yeah, I bet barely anyone will boycott it.
Not even CA can stop the ICE from harassing people at airports.
Couldn't agree more, people need to get a lot more overt on this.
