What foreign tourists? Nobody is gonna visit out of fear of being trafficked to some random country's prison.
Don't call it "being trafficked", call it "surprise random country visit".
Random Gator visit. We don’t deport, we want the workers. That’s the plan. Slaves.

or the alligator alcatraz in the everglades.
There wasn't any danger of me coming to spend my money in that third world shithole anyway.
Where do you live?
I won’t ever visit that shithole of a country either. I live 9 ranks above the US according to the UN Human Development Index, although I’m sure that gap will widen with president Cheeto at the helm.
>Claims to live in better country
>Still a mad little prick
We really are all the same in the end.
Also there’s 2 countries in 8th place, and I can’t tell if this is just regular European bigotry because you’re from the Netherlands and naturally dislike anyone who doesn’t ride bicycles across the province sized chunk of land you call a country, or if you’re from Hong Kong and are lashing out because another country is also getting taken over by authoritarian bastards.
We dislike america because it is a shithole and now turning into a fascist shithole. Americans love guns more than their children, americans are uneducated by design and are only happy when they see that someone else is even worse off than them, making them make life actively worse for others.

I live in Canada.
I will never again visit that shithole country called the United States of America.
But you continue to use its products. And, fascism only lost in Canada by 3% in your last election. You’re next.
I live in a country that so far has not started shipping their citizens to El Salvador with 0 due process and the majority not having any record. I live in a country that is not so far building Alligator Auschwitz which government officials are suggesting feeding all the immigrants to the alligators.
I have a lot more examples if you would like me to post them…

He's making it easier and easier for me to not visit the shithole.
Yo I live in this shithole give me a few years and we’ll hopefully see you then.
Am in the shithole, let me know if you need people to defend you against it.
Well, he's certainly not going for a culture victory but I think we knew that already.
Ditched a science victory as well. What's left? Religious? Maybe but unlikely. Domination? Even the US can't do that. Diplomatic? Not a fucking chance. So...points I guess?
he is going for the, loot the entire house, option. Already took the gold from fort knox.

It's actually getting kind of hard to think of new, stupider ways to ruin the economy and raise the cost of living. Parody is getting close to being indistinguishable from reality.
- Blanket tariffs for goods with low domestic production? Done.
- Imprisoning laborers who do domestic farming? Yes.
- Deporting legal, tax-paying noncitizens? Yep.
- Pissing off citizens of countries that contribute significantly to local tourism? Indeed.
- Asking potential tourists to pay extra for the privilege of visiting a to-be-sold-for-industrial-logging park? Why not.
- Cutting healthcare and replacing it with a bonus for the 0.001%? Might as well!
-
Scare away all the best and brightest of the entire world that you brought to your country to give the competitive edge in science, engineering and tech.
-
Make the business climate so uncertain that nobody wants to invest anything in research or build new facilities, except in moving their facilities out of the country
I'm sure having to have your ID checked when visiting your own national parks won't have anything to do with ICE. This will impact Americans more than it will by costing a few extra dollars for international visitors.
Trump is just stupid. Many countries that rely on tourism do this, they have free or near free entry for citizens and ~$20-100 entry for foreigners. This helps them generate a significant portion of their annual budget.
I haven't verified these numbers, but quick searching days that roughly 14–15 million foreign tourists visit U.S. national parks each year, accounting for about 4% of total park visits. If we charge $20 per person for international visitors, that's $280–300 million annually... that's... Peanuts for the US.
I wouldn't be opposed to it at all if the fees are only used to preserve and maintain the national parks, but you know this fucker just wants to funnel the money into deep pockets.

😂😂😂 Can't pay a fee if you don't go! 🤡🤡🤡
cant pay if they arnt visiting in the first place.
"To fund improvements and enhanced experiences across the park system, I've just signed an executive order to raise entrance fees for foreign tourists while keeping prices low for Americans. The national parks will be about America first."
Oh thank god! After slashing over $1 billion from the nps budget and firing over 5,000 of its workers I was beginning to think this guy maybe didn't care about the national parks. What a relief!
He literally has no concept of making this nation one where others are envious of it. Instead it's just grift, grift, grift.
Trump, I don't need MORE reasons to not cross the border. We are already not going there....
Would need to have tourist in the first place
Amazing that a hotel owner hates tourism that much.
So, you see, the kidnapping and human trafficking is part of the luxury package, so obviously that comes with additional fees, etc..
Once he finishes logging, mining and drilling them, not many people will want to visit America's National Parks, anyway.
Newsflash: tourists avoid fascist countries.
Fuck the U. S. A. Hey ICE: fuck you! Suck my cock. You dirty cocksuckers.
I don't see how this is meant to ensure the law is fairly governed, nor where the constitution or legislature told the president that they could change pricing for parks. It isn't pertaining to war, and it's a pretty damn hard to see how this pertains to international affairs.
Everyone in the government has to know this executive order shouldn't exist. Wish the Supreme Court had the integrity to just vet every executive order and suspend all of them that could be overreach upon being placed until they are reviewed.
