The move has been heavily criticised by Taoiseach Micheál Martin who described it as “excessive”.

    Every unreasonable demand coming from mango mussolini’s people makes me laugh!

      I fear the day you’ll have to stop laughing too.

        Having a strict policy of never setting foot on US soil does wonders for not having to worry about Trump’s latest brain fart.

          Until they come for you too.

          Just ask Iran, Groenland, Canada…

            They haven’t come for us in Canada yet, and in fact are in the “finding out” phase of the lesson in why they shouldn’t.

              We have an army of beavers, cobra chickens, and mad rabbits.

              Why do rabbits matter? Ask Napoleon: A Brief Moment of History: When Napoleon Took on Rabbits

                We also have people effectively indistinguishable from them which would make us invisible in the war of resistance, allowing operations deep behind enemy lines.

                Keep in mind the USA couldn’t win a war with people who looked very different from them. Oh, wait. That doesn’t narrow it down very much at all. I mean I could be talking about Vietnam here. Or Somalia. Or Pakistan. Or Afghanistan. Or …

                Whichever I meant, though, the USA has consistently shown its inability to hold territory even when “us vs. them” was pretty clear to establish. What chance do you think they’ll have when faced with people who look and talk just like them?

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don’t end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
