I wonder if tourists are visiting DC with all this military and their equipment in site..........

[riversedge]

I would not tour the Lincoln Memorial or National Mall- or this area now.
I and friends did eight years ago.
--we took some tours and did some walking and a few taxi rides over 2 days--We were fortunate enough to have good weather on our side.
I would have have no desire to do so now..

Donald Trump turned D.C. into a military occupation, wasting millions of taxpayer dollars. It is not about fighting crime. It is about control and crushing protest.

Trump's Occupation of D.C. Is Hurting Local Businesses Too - Rolling Stone

TodayAs fewer customers visit restaurants and bars, the president considers escalation by arming members of the National Guard in the capital city.

4. whow. Thanks for the research you did. I will take a read of them. And yes, I would think eating places

and bars would be taking a hit also.

10. Yeah, that's what I thought of when I

read this.. of course.

So sorry for the Biz owners. Hope it Changes for them Soon!

3. A couple of my friends and I were there a little over a year ago

we stayed in Alexandria to save on hotel costs so we were riding the metro back & forth into DC. Took a nighttime tour of the monuments & walked all over during the day.

We were just discussing that we had no idea we were taking our lives in our hands doing that.


Though, Biden was still president when we were there, maybe the place just went all to hell since Trump's been in charge.

5. I used to go to DC all the time

But I wouldn’t set foot in there as long as the orange pedo felon is in the white racist house. And his ice goons roaming the streets.

And I’m angry he is destroying the Smithsonian museum and it’s becoming censored to erase history he doesn’t like.

6. Turning DC into a ghost town is probably not what TSF counted on. LA n DC not gonna play his martial law games

I hope.

7. Exactly What repups Against Traitor said!

What can be Done about it?

We need a Big Law of Unintended Consequences to Strike on Traitors to the USA!

8. Nope, I would not vacation in a military zone

I have read articles where media has called DC and California "Intervention " No, it's a federal military invasion.

9. Many international colleagues have told me and my company that they will not travel to the US

For work or conferences. It’s too big of a risk now.

11. Tourism is down all over US

“ Travel experts sounding the alarm about a significant drop in US tourism”

Travel experts are sounding the alarm about a significant drop in international visitors to the U.S.

The World Travel and Tourism Council says America is on track to lose $12.5 billion in international visitor spending this year.

Oxford Economics projects the U.S. will be the only country to see that type of decline.

“Experts say the decline is due to the costly, and lengthy, process to get a visa, and the Trump administration's crackdown on illegal immigration, which is leaving travelers on edge.”

(0ver on Reddit there was a Canadian Women asking questions because she was afraid to come to US for a wedding. About 100 reply’s of people telling her not to come because this country sucks. )

13. Regarding the Canadian woman afraid to come to the US for a wedding--I would also be very afraid to

come to the US at this point.

12. Considering that idgits "crackdown"

is basically on anyone who doesn't look or sound white american, and his ice goons have detained tourists visiting this country, several countries have put the u.s. on their equivalent of level 4 do not travel. Why should anyone from a different country travel here? Canada, Australia, The Carribean, Asia, Europe, South America, and Some African countries are all safer to travel to than the u.s. right now.
