[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve not been treated badly because I’m American but I have regularly experienced a “test” where someone in Europe will try to find out what kind of American you are…trumper or not. If you “pass” the test, i.e not a trumper, you are treated great.

I have personally seen A LOT of nasty tourists from all over the world, most notably American, British (quite a few tbh), and Chinese and Japanese (this last one was more about HUGE groups of tourists and they will cut off others. [/quote]

I'm calling you out as making up stuff that never happened. Because most people in Europe don't spend their time thinking about US politics or "trumpers."  :roll: They're much more interested in their own politicians. Of which some are pretty populist themselves. Marie Le Pen is the leading contender to win the next French election. Giorgia Meloni is the PM of Italy. The ADF in Germany is winning elections. There's a significant pro-right tide sweeping across Europe, which you'd notice if you paid attention to the papers.

DCUM isn't Europe and what people are saying in DCUM pretty much only happens on DCUM. Newsflash, a lot of the hotel staff across Western Europe aren't "natives" of the respective countries. But that didn't enter your mind because it doesn't fit the narrative you're trying to peddle on here. [/quote]

I hate people like you who dismiss things because they haven't happened to you. I was in Italy in 2017 and had the "Do you support Trump?" question posed to me by a takeaway pizza place guy. Then again in 2018 by a food service worker in Alberta, Canada. We only vacationed in America during the rest of the Trump years. [/quote]
