No, you're not."And we're the number one travel destination anywhere in the world".

That's money spent, not number of tourists.
I know
Don't you find that more important, than number of bordercrossings ?
This is about tourist numbers though, The popularity of the destination.
The dollar figure could just mean it's the most expensive. Also very hard to calculate the money issue. How is it even possible ? Do hotels and restaurants keep tabs on whether a customer was international or domestic?
^ likely just credit card spend
This is why having an utter fucking cretin as president is dangerous:
Donald Trump has sought to play down the threat from coronavirus despite mounting concerns about unchecked worldwide contagion, as Australia’s prime minister launched an emergency plan and said that the risk of a pandemic was “very much upon us”.
In a press conference in Washington, the US president said the danger to Americans “remains very low” and predicted that the number of cases diagnosed in the country, currently on 15, could fall to zero in a “few days”.
Meanwhile:
(It pinged up three new cases while I was looking at it!).
Stable fucking genius indeed.
Donald Trump asked medical experts if coronavirus could be treated with a flu vaccine that already exists at a meeting with pharmaceutical executives on Monday.

Sam Harris tore the seppo trumptard to shreds once again.

He's a golem of what everyone thinks the ugly American is. He's the distillation of American grotesque.
If you took professional wrestling, McDonalds french-fries, the NRA and infomercials about bogus products that don't work and you just mixed them all together and stuck them in the back of a tacky white limousine and you drive it around central park 500 times, you open the door and out would step Donald Trump. He's the confection of all of that American crap.
That's because it's an inch thick in orange makeup you fat fucking turd.President Donald Trump complained Wednesday that anti-coronavirus measures are leaving him out of touch -- with his own face.
Trump spoke at a White House meeting with airline executives and administration officials on sanitary measures taken to try and stop the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
Executives explained their enhanced cleaning operations on passenger planes. Then Deborah Birx, the White House coronavirus response coordinator, reminded “the common sense of washing your hands, not touching your face.”
To which Trump, a self-acknowledged germophobe, joked: “I haven’t touched my face in weeks, in weeks! I miss it!”
The petulant orange twat is at it again.
WASHINGTON — Under fire for his handling of the coronavirus crisis, President Donald Trump on Friday made a major staff overhaul, announcing that Rep. Mark Meadows will be replacing Mick Mulvaney as his chief of staff.
Trump announced the surprise reshuffle in a series of Friday night tweets, saying Mulvaney would become the U.S. special envoy for Northern Ireland.
“I have long known and worked with Mark, and the relationship is a very good one,” he wrote, thanking Mulvaney — who never shook his “acting” title — “for having served the Administration so well.”
The long-rumored move makes Meadows, who announced last year that he was not seeking reelection for his House seat from North Carolina, effectively Trump’s fourth chief of staff since taking office in 2017.
And it comes as the Trump administration has faced criticism for its handling of the novel coronavirus outbreak. Mulvaney had been leading the interagency response to the virus until Trump designated Vice President Mike Pence to lead the whole-of-government effort more than a week ago.
Trump, who soured on Mulvaney not long after he assumed the role, has been eyeing the change for many months, but wanted to wait until after impeachment was over to make the move, according to two people familiar with his thinking who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Some outside advisers had cautioned Trump that a switch during the coronavirus crisis would rattle markets craving stability, and his decision to make the announcement after Wall Street had closed on Friday was partly informed by those concerns, the people said.
Meadows was offered the job Thursday, according to one of the people, but Mulvaney was not informed until Friday.
Although he never grated on Trump or other White House staffers like the two men who’d held the post before him, Mulvaney had been relegated to the sidelines for months. Still, his allies had brushed off rumblings off his imminent departure and had said as recently as last month that he planned to stay at least through the election.
Trump has been on a tear since his acquittal by the Senate to rid his administration of those he deems insufficiently loyal. He has been assembling a team of trusted confidants as he prepares for a tough reelection fight.
Indeed, Meadows, a close ally and friend of the president, has made clear to the White House and those close to the president that he has no plans to try to rein in Trump, as others have tried and failed to do.
A former congressman from South Carolina, Mulvaney had portrayed himself as a happy warrior, satisfied with letting “Trump be Trump” while he focused on rolling back regulations and finding ways for Trump to circumvent Congress to build his border wall.
Trump initially approved of Mulvaney’s hands-off approach. But he was furious about Mulvaney’s handling of the impeachment probe, according to two Republicans close to the White House.
Not only was Trump angry about a news conference in which the acting chief of staff broke with the party line and said foreign policy quid pro quos were common, but the president faulted Mulvaney for not mounting a more robust defense of his actions.
