This is nonsense. They have screening systems and something flagged him.

These stories are multiplying and we can kiss our tourism and business interests goodbye.

I find this all abhorrent, but I am looking forward to dirt cheap rates on hotels and tickets as the international tourism market crashes and the recession hits home. It’ll be a great time to scoop up deals, assuming I still have a job and disposable income.

They will soon start to demand visas of Americans.

Foreign leaders are giving Trump rope. They are egging him on , knowing his weakness. They will continue to taunt him.

Found the apologist! Quick question - how would you feel if you were going to Paris on vacation, and their version of border patrol saw this thread and locked you in a dungeon for a few years on suspicion of terrorism?

I keep thinking I can't be more shocked, but this is just so chilling.

So how long will it be before US citizens are given the same fate for a similar criticism of the administration?

Slippery slope, people.

I read a newspaper article about two of them. Absolutely horrifying.

“Chained, detained for weeks and eventually deported, two German tourists trying to enter the United States were recently tangled in a system responding to President Trump’s push to sharply restrict entry and deport people en masse.”

Thanks for the gift link. I posted earlier about avoiding travel to US as a Canadian on another thread. This is what I was afraid of.
These stories, while horrific, need to be told.

Way to miss the point.

Ah, CBP, making America proud.

This is pitiful. Anyone who works with CBP knows this could happen if you encourage them - Trump doesn't know what he's done and doesn't care. It's all a silly game to him that he's already won.

Elon Musk, on the other hand, is burning his companies to the ground. Oh well.
