On Nov. 20 last year I realized I would have to wait at least 4 years before it would possibly feel safe to travel to the U.S., but now I feel concerned and very sorry for all the foreigners - from 42 countries no less - who will have a professional or personal obligation to travel there should such a measure be enforced.
This invasion of people's privacy is blatant and goes against these countries own civil liberty rights.
With the forthcoming World Cup in mind the travel industry as well as the tourist industry must feel at the very least downhearted. Let's hope their lobbying will be persuasive enough for this asinine Admin to rollback on that matter. But Trump and his henchmen are so disabled when it comes to put two and two together...

And exactly who has the time and is going to sit and scrutinize five years of a person's social media...times that many tourist???? In the long run he's only hurting himself and the country, not to mention if I was a foreigner I definitely would not travel here, nor if I'm an immigrant would I even want anything to do with the US. If people still want to come here don't show how desperate they are.
I am a US citizen who travels internationally a few times a year. I have already scrubbed my social media entries of any mention of that piece-of-shit because it's only a matter of time before these new rules apply to US citizens as well.
Who the bloody hell would want to visit the bloody Fascist States of America ?!

Another item to discourage tourists to visit the «great USA» under this administration. I live in Montréal, Canada and at 45 minutes from the border and I have no plan to get in USA with all those restrictions in place by this autocratic scared administration. I have good friends in Rehoboth Beach who would like me to go and visit them but noway will I cross this border. There is a more or less 20% of Canadians that are not going to USA this year. Many snowbirds are selling their estates in Florida. A good friend of my brother sold his huge condo in Utah because of the bad politics in USA..
