Well, everybody who cares about the economy...y'all have lost your stupid minds.

We have many posters who suffer from TDS. But many also suffer, from the opposite condition, know as TFS. Trump Fellating Syndrome.

 

[C-south]

Awesome. Wish we could get some reverse immigration going.

lol. You’ve been over the edge for a while now. Who gives a f*** about international tourism? What business is hanging their hat on that?

Most were on a downward trend before Trump…. And what do we even know about the tweet? Has it been verified? Holy at the way you and Hill jump to such f’ing conclusions

TDS just means “how dare you criticize Trump” lmao. Don’t even try to compare these two things.

do you think every tourist to our country is from America or something

I think American businesses aren’t depending on international tourism to stay afloat.

And I think a foreigner that had plans to visit the US for a vacation, but won’t now because Trump is president is a poon.

Liberals should be thrilled. Less fossil fuel burned therefore less global warming. These mixed signals from the Ls are really difficult for my simple mind to process.

We didn't want their money anyway!

January and February are typically slow months for air travel. A little pickup in March with spring break.
Icelandair and Aer Lingus both just started at BNA this week.

I don't want most of them here. Go home. Please, pretty please flee the dictator nation.

Posts like these that really make me believe you aren't anything but a bot or part of a former soviet-bloc country troll farm.

So just so we're clear your argument is that there are a bunch of businesses in this country that survive/fail based on French/German/British/etc tourism?

See, if I wanted to go to X restaurant and couldn't get a table because German was there that's no loss to to the restaurant if the German wasn't there because I would be. If a business in a country of 340 million needs people crossing oceans to stay in business I have to wonder about their business model.

I have to wonder about your business acumen if you question the entire model of the tourism and hospitality industry.

International visitors spent nearly $213.1 billion on U.S. travel and tourism-related goods and services year last year (January through December 2023), an increase of nearly 29 percent when compared to 2022; international visitors injected, on average, nearly $584 million a day into the U.S. economy during 2023.

That's higher than the gdp of several of your goober states.

International tourism.
And it has very little impact

This is basically a problem for new York, California, and Florida. Nobody else feels anything. And the current dip represents less than .01% of their projected revenue

Your hypothesis is “tourist fear deportation”…..I see some flaws in that “logic”

The more likely answer here is that your graph only seems to cover about 1 year and there’s natural seasonal fluctuations in tourism.

Nice try, though

Chump change, right?

A recent Tourism Economics report warns that the US tourism sector is at risk of losing up to $64 billion this year due to the Trump administration's trade wars, stricter immigration regulations, and declining international sentiment towards America. The situation reflects a significant downturn...
