Frommers: Though they may differ as to the wisdom of the move, the travel press
and most travel experts are of one mind: They are currently drawing
attention to an unintended consequence of the Trump-led efforts to stop
many Muslims from coming to the U.S., pointing to a sharp drop in
foreign tourism to our nation that imperils jobs and touristic income.
“It’s known as the ‘Trump Slump.’... The prestigious Travel Weekly magazine (as close to
an ‘official’ travel publication as they come) has set the decline in
foreign tourism at 6.8%. And the fall-off is not limited to Muslim
travelers, but also extends to all incoming foreign tourists.
Apparently, an attack on one group of tourists is regarded as an assault
on all.

Unintended, maybe, but highly predictable, absolutely.
How To Win Friends and Influence People must not have been on the reading list at Wharton, we take it?
