You have to be a brainless twit to even consider coming to the U.S. during our current shit show.

You literally risk being tossed into a concentration camp.

I'm shocked, shocked! I say!

Whoever could have seen that the guy that wants to shut the border to everyone and enrich his cronies would just deny people crossing the boarder and enrich his cronies?

Seriously. There are safe countries like Canada and Mexico that are having matches.

"I don't think it's fair, they shouldn't authorise somebody to go then take it back. We didn't book anything until we were authorised."

Yes it's not fair. But again... The cruelty is the point. It's their way of exerting power and how the get their jollies. Mess with foreigners. Or maybe it's just good old incompetence. There's plenty of that going around right now.
