I don’t get why anyone from overseas would come to the US right now. They can just randomly decide today’s your day and throw you in prison in Louisiana for no reason at all.
It’s not even that. They are demanding to go through visitor’s phones, and denying entry if they’ve criticized Trump on social media.
Imagine you’ve saved for a few years for a big trip to America, bought plane and theme parks tickets, put down deposits on lodging, pre-paid for car rentals, arrange for time off for everyone in the group, etc., only to get turned away at the border because you said something negative about the worst president in American history.
There are an infinite number of places in the world to visit that will be just as fun and relaxing. No need to go to the one place that won’t welcome you and your money.
It shouldn’t but in America you can be detained for less. And my ethnicity makes me worried if I was ever detained so yeah, Americans need to realize the reality shift in this fascist landscape. It might not affect you but MANY of us have cause for concern.
Trump couldn’t even answer a reporter’s basic questions about the Declaration of Independence. He certainly wouldn’t understand the concept that God himself endowed ALL people with Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness - three things that MAGAs despise.
The problem is that the determination that you are a good person or not, is being made by very bad people. Your characterization of yourself as “good” is irrelevant.

It’s based on entitlement. “That would never happen to me because I’m a good person”
It shouldn’t really be an “entitlement” mindset to think that you shouldn’t go to prison if you didn’t do anything wrong.

It’s completely and utterly anti-american to be forced to have that mindset.
Whoever would cause that mindset is the active enemy of every single citizen.
