Putting this into a perspective Trump might understand
It's almost as if having the POTUS troll our allies isn't the greatest idea in the world. And I guarantee these golf club schmucks voted for him, so fuck them. They deserve to lose their overly pampered asses.

Yes, Salty. The lack of Canadian tourism dollars matters. This one microcosm could easily translate into many moms and pops who depend on tourist dollar having a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad year

Quote:
One of the hardest-hit spots is the Malone Golf Club in New York, a club with panoramic views and a high-end golf experience. Malone Golf Club, along with other golf clubs in the United States border region, has experienced a marked decline in business from Canadian visitors. With Canadian golfers increasingly choosing to stay and play in their home country, U.S. golf clubs are feeling the void of what was a steady flour of business.

It’s gotten serious, with the club losing roughly \$400,000 in revenue from Canadian visitors. This figure is about a quarter of their operating costs – a massive blow to the club’s finances. Though some Canadians continue to visit and book stay-and-play packages, the numbers are a fraction of what they used to be, which has created financial discomfort.

Canada used to be the biggest single source of tourism dollars for the USA. But everyone on earth hates MAGA. And so, many Americans (who MAGA claims to put "first") will suffer and lose their jobs because of trump and his idiotic cult.

I personally refuse to spend any of my tourism dollars in this country. Every time I take a vacation, my passport gets a stamp or two. It's cheaper anyway.

Canadians calling to cancel their tours “explicitly told me that it was because of the policies and the behavior of our current president,” he said.

Thanks trump. Thanks maga. This is all your fault.

Default Trump Slump definitely describes tourism here under Trump 2.0

Quote:
In Nevada, economic concerns threaten to wipe away Trump and the GOP's Latino voter gains

As inflation and tariffs harm business owners and Las Vegas tourism dwindles, a ''Trump slump'' is harming Hispanics.

AMCHAM has been pleading Trump 2.0 to pick up the pace on tourist applications.

B-2's have been low priority and that needs to change if you want to get that sweet tourist bump.

You’re constantly chasing your tail. I guess you missed the presser in the Oval this week. FIFA ticket holders get preferential treatment. They go to the front of the line. FIFA will set attendance records here next year. Run along now.
