Good, more people will be deterred from going there

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

People don't overstay their visas and live illegally in a country because they have good options. They do it because they are desperate and have no hope of gaining legal immigration status through the fucked up process the U.S.A. has.
This will kill more people as they attempt to cross the border through dangerous routes.
Increase crime as criminals move in to "assist" the desperate people and make a profit.

It will also cause a decline in the tourism industry, well more than it already has.
Is that the same U.S. complaining about the lack of foreign tourists?
Our government:
come visit us, we hate you! :D
In The Handmaid's Tale, they hang gay people and then are surprised gay people don't feel safe visiting
Also our government: "Come visit us, you could die here, we have nut jobs with guns."
"and we're hiring more"
Isn't the Football World Cup next year? Are they this stupid?
Football is incredibly popular in Latin America and I have feeling they're not gonna let any of those people in without a bond. They are cutting off a tourism market of over 650 million people. Literal buffoons.
I hope to see extraordinarily low turnout but I'm afraid a lot of people will still be stupid enough to go. I know people in Canada still planning trips to America like everything's normal
It gets better. There are Olympic Games in three years...
Yeah it's gonna be the first World Cup ever to lose money.
Very on brand for Trump.
That would be fucking awesome. FIFA is the worst.
Canada and Mexico well be busy.
