I agree with you and we don't want illegals and criminals to stay here. The problem is we are now making so that good people who want to visit the USA now want to be bothered by all this crap. Friend from other side of the pond are canceling trips. Canadians who really are are good and closest ally are not coming due to the BS. That is a problem.
Agreed it is…and the biggest person or entity to blame for that (there’s many not just one) is the main stream media. They are attacking the current president because they don’t like him even though former presidents that happened to be their preferred party did the same thing. The powers that be prey on ignorance and stupidity as they push their narrative to continue to divide America and the world…that’s what they want…chaos and they’re getting it…mostly because much of the planet today is extremely ignorant and stupid and easily manipulated and apparently easily driven to hatred simply because someone thinks different than them on something. We only have ourselves to blame really

i mean like it or not and like the leader of the country or not, this is only about trying to keep the country safer by identifying and not allowing criminals into the country. its nothing more than that... wouldnt everyone want less criminals in their homeland? again, this has nothing to do with what the guy is or what you think of him... completely separate from this topic... its pretty simple.... would you rather have a criminal in your country, town, street, apartment complex, etc, or not?

its about not wanting CRIMINALS to visit the country anymore... not regular people (i.e. non criminals)

Speaking of worse type of CRIMINALS.

lol typical defection tactic... hey look at what ive got over here... please look at this... dont look over there at the much bigger issue..
they are all pieces of crap human beings... every last one of them... whatever side of the aisle they are on politically doesnt matter. these frauds that came out and said this yesterday say that, which is fine, but they say nothing about all the people on their side that were involved in this or that.... they are all hypocritical frauds that care only about themselves and no one else... and if they do care about anything else, its simply spew as much hate and lies as they can to continue the division of the country/world... they preach the message of love over hate... but thats nothing but a fraudulent load of bs... they want division by hate... the last thing they want is everyone to love everyone else and get along.

I agree with you that it doesn't matter politically. I hope they're serious about putting an end to child trafficking, and going after everyone involved.

I hope the same thing as well. The last administration sure didn’t care about stopping it…let’s hope this one does…but it’s not just a USA problem there…it’s a global problem that every country out there has their hands in one way or another

This administration has something to hide, so it's highly unlikely that this one will do anything.

A lot of the new rules/practices in place for border crossing to the US are taking some time for everyone to get used to, including the Customs and Border Protection personnel.

Hopefully, once we fill in our Form I-94, we won't find it difficult to cross the border from Ontario, Canada, to the US, given that we are heading south for a couple of months in a few days.
Welcome, have a great trip.

I congratulate everyone who can attend these events and wish them the best of luck. Personally, I haven't had the opportunity to travel to the United States, but I hope to soon fulfill my dream of playing there and sharing my experience here with our group.

Only Las Vegas can pressure the Trump administration to ease these restrictions. I think these measures will only affect certain countries that Trump doesn't like. Generally speaking, and for me personally, online poker has been sufficient for a long time.
However, if I ever qualify for a live tournament in the United States, I will do my best to prepare all the required documents😁

Good luck.
