Millions of international travelers are increasingly choosing to avoid the United States.

The United States had roughly 4 million fewer international visitors in 2025 than the year before, marking a 5.5 percent decline in overseas tourism, according to CNN. Foreign visitor spending also fell by more than $8 billion.

Aside from the collapse in travel during the COVID-19 pandemic, it represents the sharpest annual drop in international tourism in roughly 20 years.

Anyone still visiting the USA for any reason other than a life-threatening situation is an active and knowing supporter of fascism, and deserves whatever atrocities occur to them whilst there.

Zero sympathies.
