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.
The country itself is beautiful, a friend of mine visited last year and he felt you , as a nation, all were very nice, caring, even the police… The photos he brought back were breathtaking…
You are going to get out of that stump when the country wakes up from the shock, I know it. but for now it’s the unknown and most of you are still in shock or(worse) still infatuated with American exceptionalism.
I appreciate your kind words and optimism. I sure hope we do! Trump’s next sale will be of all our public lands and beauty to the highest bidders for oil or development. I hope before that happens, we do something.
Exactly: Forget woke, just wake up!
