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.
Dude I love the guys that are like “well WaPo isn’t reporting it and the Americans didn’t email me specifically about their plans to resist so they must all be rolling over”
Considering how absolutely pathetic the American “resistance” has been for the past eight years I’d say you’re solidly in the “put up or shut up” phase now.
I wrote all my reps asking what they were doing about the rise of fascism.
“We’re voting as hard as we can!” was their answer. Oh good. Thanks for fighting SO hard, ya fuckin useless sacks of shit.
