For those who wish to Travel to the U.S. in these times

 Of Course I can only truly speak about California and Oregon and Texas because these are the places I have been since Trump was inaugurated as president and also I'm a white male and a U.S. citizen who was born here. So, this should be a caveat when you read this.

However, for me, a white male U.S. born citizen there has been little or no change to my life at all. The scariest things are on the news every day.

So, I cannot ultimately predict what will happen to you here in the U.S. from our government or local police or immigration personnel. However, unless you are from South of the Border to Mexico you might find no difference at all except that there are more people afraid to travel to the U.S. because of Trump's ideas for U.S. Government.

So, in this sense it is very strange living here where the government seems to be changing in some ways but it is more like how actors make big scenes and act out more than anything else.

So, watching Trump it is more like a Rich Actor portraying himself in a movie more than anything else, unless you are from South of the Mexico border or Putin. These are the two most obvious differences of racism of this government against people who aren't white or male.

So, I think you have to decide for yourself whether you feel both happy and safe whether to come to the U.S. or not. At the very least it should be quite an adventure during these times simply because of how many people are not coming to the U.S. because they have been scared away from coming here because of the news.

But then, you have paradoxically? 100,000 people coming to things like the Concourse D'Elegance which is a rich persons car show of the most expensive cars on earth and creating traffic Jams in places like Pebble Beach Near San Francisco too.

So, I guess what I'm saying is that the U.S. and traveling here might be more of an adventure now and maybe not quite as safe for many people as it used to be.

However, the rich from almost anyplace seem to be having a really great time (whether you see this as good or bad or neutral).

This is what I think so far.
