Ex-Labor Secretary Robert Reich urges global boycott of travel to U.S. to protest Trump
It would send a clear signal, said the Bill Clinton-era Cabinet member.
Summary
Former Labor Secretary Robert Reich urged a global boycott of U.S. travel to protest Trump’s policies, warning his administration is “brutally attacking U.S. democracy.”
In a Guardian op-ed, Reich called on foreign visitors, students, and skilled workers to reconsider coming, citing economic and safety concerns. He argued withholding tourism revenue could pressure Trump.
His plea follows Trump’s anti-immigration crackdown and rising tensions with Canada.
Reich’s call comes as Canadian travel to the U.S. has already shown signs of decline.

This is stupid.
He doesn't care, because he doesn't have to care.
So long as he has his violent inbred redneck base, which he has to the death right now, he will paint any and all protests as proof to them that the evil libtard eurocucks are just angry that America is standing up to them for once.
There is literally nothing you can do to get through to the core of his base, and it's just large enough that he can ignore everything else, which is the only thing he learned in his first term, you only need 32% to win.
I don't know if getting through to his core base matters - they are and always will be a lost cause. But people should protect themselves and Americans should feel the pain economically, from the top to the bottom.
I think we need a proper schism, the only way we got them under control last time was with a civil war, but personally kicking out all the vile southern trash sounds like the best possible outcome for everyone.
We can live in a civilized country, and they can wallow in their own shit raping their sisters, ok obviously that doesn't work out for their women but we can start an underground railroad to funnel them to the real world.
i see balkanization is the only choice here, the blue states all become one country while the red one is up to the fates. as soon as the gop is evicted first of course.
It's not necessarily about changing anything. It's a matter of safety for those visiting.
The coasts are still fairly safe, but I see your point.
I personally sent my family to Europe last year, they're citizens but our child is interracial, and being brown I know exactly what that means wrt the absolute subhuman monsterous filth in the south.
