I'd say I'll be boycotting any advertisers but in reality most are american and are already on the list anyway
Germany has the opportunity to do something really funny
I keep seeing people on the right say, "No one has a sense of humor anymore." There's nothing wrong with my sense of humor. This shit isn't funny. You have to have the mental maturity of a twelve year-old to find it funny.
Bullies think they're the funniest people.
that's smart just make your biggest tourist event even less desirable
And he’ll steal your bike 
It's going to happen.
The way Nazis would've joked about "gas leaks" in the chambers or some shit. It's like they want to be as despicable as they can be.
Hahahahaha good joke Mr. Vice President of the "Free World"
Fucking conservative fascists
I have been to the United States a handful of times.
The two things that went through my head each time:
My odds of getting shot just went up.
No matter what, don't get injured, and if you do, get your ass back to Canada.
That's the undercurrent of uneasiness I experienced before Trump.
Now the United States has the Gestapo snatching people off the streets.
I do not want to go there again, and would advise anyone to stay away from the United States.
Jokes...jokes....
They don't fucking joke, they are laughing when they say it because they are evil maniacal Nazis.
For real. If I wasn’t already here, I wouldn’t come to America for any reason. The odds of being detained and / or hassled have skyrocketed. Of course it’s exponentially worse if your skin color is on the darker side…
Fuck I hate this government.
At this point I wouldn't even be surprised if they detained me on the border for being too white. It's suspicious! What am I hiding?!
I don't think I'll be visiting your beautiful country in the next few years unfortunately.
It's not a joke, they're already detaining tourists
The USA will be the first country to host the World Cup and lose money on the deal.
Tourists will go to Canada and Mexico for the games.
Only Americans will go to the USA games.
Turns out : there’s not that many USA soccer fans.
How do I do a put on World Cup futures ?
Not really the same but there are some etf's that track msci world without us companies, although these companies might still be naive and spent money on world cup ads.
Got you a link in case you're serious; https://www.justetf.com/en/how-to/msci-world-ex-usa-etfs.html
"Jokes."
Absolute death worshipping ghouls
Good one JD keep making those jokes the tourists love them.
Just another reason to avoid the US.
Wow, right out loud in the open. I wonder if they'll make it a slogan, like MAGA. "Go home or talk to Noem!"
God, this world is bleak.
And by 'detain', they mean arrest. And by 'jokes', they mean get your coat.
As an American it's another reason why I think we should be barred from hosting world sporting events. Also why the Olympics should be moved. The US is not to be trusted.
Original nazis also had their Olympics, would be unfair to not allow that for trump /s
Such great comedy.
Funny, it doesn't feel great from the inside.
To make American great again implies one of two things.
- It needs to get worse before it gets better.
- It currently is not, or was not great.
It clearly implies that America was once great.
It does not imply that America has to get any worse.
Anyway, that's all moot. It's really all just racist dog whistling.
Jesus Christ they're already fucking up US citizens right to be here, what makes anyone think this will go smoothly?
Visiting the US right now seems like a very bad idea
Trump and Vance are just mirrors of american society... And they are huge assholes for sure. Make of that what you will.
