State of Washington county missing Canadians due to trump policies

[JimH52]

NO, not all of us are stupid. Just Seattle, Tacoma and Olympia

The economy is crashing because a failed businessman is acting stupid.

We don't have to worry about people illegally stay after they overstay their visas. One of the biggest ways people come here illegaly. The folks not willing to come now, clearly had that intent, or they'd still come.

Trump has revoked hundreds of VISAS of people because of political beliefs and treated them like illegal aliens.

It’s not worth the risk for anyone.

It is becoming as dangerous to visit the US as it is to visit Russia.

Then start a thread about THAT. This thread is about one WA county in a state of 39 counties total, with 5 border counties....what of the other 4/38 counties????

well if they are here after their visas has been revoked they are illegal.

and yes, you can have your visa revoked for political beliefs. We don't let people come visit our country if they are security threats to our country....or at least we didn't until the Demafacist were in power, and allied with the terrorist. Those dark days are over.

Funny how you can find out your visa is being revoked immediately after you’re arrested for being illegal.

People don’t want to risk going to a country where the rule of law depends on the whims of an authoritarian like Trump.

Authoritarian? Maybe they should read our Congressionally passed laws before coming and follow them. The Executive, under laws passed by the US Congress, via our democratic process, allow the Sec of State to revoke your visa

There is nothing authoritarian about our democratic process. But we see folks like you siding with the terrorist that want to overthrow Western civilization and support Hamas. Maybe you should live under Hamas leadership in Gaza if you think we are authoritarian.

Then people would not be going to other countries.....

If they can revoke a VISA for any reason they want, then it is indeed authoritarian.

Next thing you know the have you on a plane to a gulag in El Salvador.

Why risk it?

They can revoke a Visa for any number of reasons, outlined in the laws created by Congress, which creates laws, and who represents the people that elected them. That is in fact, not authoritarian, but democratic. I get, as a pro-Hamas voter that bothers you.

If you are from El Salvador and a criminal, that is likely.

I agree, don't risk coming here if you are going to violate our laws. That's sort of the point.

No, it’s very authoritarian. Trump can declare you illegal because you have the wrong opinions. Just criticizing Trump can land you in jail.

As for going to El Salvador, they’re sending innocent people from any number of countries without so much as a hearing. There’s no trial. Just sent on a plane out of the reach of the judicial protections our constitution gives people.

That’s VERY authoritarian.

what's authoritarian about enforcing a law passed by Congress? Folks voted on by the people to make laws?

See, this is the weird thing about your pro-hamas people, you don't have an issue with being told what to do by the Supreme Leader, but you take issue with our executive branch enforcing laws passed by the demoractically elected Congress.

I guess, it's that Hamas education you got.

They are sending people that there are part of a criminal terrorist gang we are at war with, and they can file a Habious petition once they are detained, and before they are removed. Again, that is another law, that the President is enforcing that was passed by the people and it's Constitutional.

Congress never thought the president would start declaring people security risks for having opinions they didn’t agree with.

It’s just another example as to how an authoritarian like Trump can abuse his office.

When people can be secretly detained, secretly held, and secretly flown out of the country to a secret gulag without having to appear before a single judge, it’s a risk to come to this country.

Trump is an authoritarian who acts unilaterally on his own whims and for his own purposes. Never before did we have someone with so little respect for the first amendment.

Really? Then why did they give the President that power? Someone's opinion is a national security threat. Having the opinion that terrorist groups are right, is a national security threat.

Who's being secretly detained and secretly held and secretly flown out? Trump has been very transparent about all this...heck, most people are annoyed at his Sec of Homeland Security's press conferences they have become so numerous.

Not sure what you mean by acting unilaterally....who's he suppose to being enforcing our federal laws with? The US Constitution doesn't vest anyone else with Executive Power. He was elected by the people, to enforce Federal laws, he is.

Again, your Hamas programing might be telling you are Constitution is authoritarian, I get that, but you are wrong, like so many of your Hamas agenda is.

This Washington border county is desperate for Canadians

“There’s just no one around,” said a gas station owner in Whatcom County, where the economy depends on residents of British Columbia remaining eager to buy American.

trump is alienating allies and allying the US with adversaries like Russia. Canadians are our brothers who have fought side by side with us for hundreds of years. In a few months, trump has destroyed that relationship.

We need to destroy the dark blue areas.

No due process. These people are banished on the word of men whose honestly is questionable at best. Hungary 2.0

Really? Who questions the honesty of the Sec of State? He was confirmed by the US Senate with 99 votes.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

This is standard with all centralized systems. They are accustomed to persecuting citizens without ANY accountability or transparency so they feel an affront when any other nation sets different rules. This is especially true in Ontario.

Strange and creepy really.

I don't mean to sound disrespectful, but I truly have been shocked. I've seen pictures and read stories where your businesses have removed everything American from their shelves, stories of Canadians who now refuse to visit, your leaders acting like we are now enemies, it's been amazing. Yeah I get it, most Canadians hate Trump, but come on, we have a long history here.

Canada is desperate, the left wing govt has ruined their economy and now they are looking to blame America for their ruin
