WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump threatened undefined retaliation Friday against countries and organizations that issue travel warnings on the United States because of gun violence.

"If they did that, we'd just reciprocate," Trump said during a wide-ranging impromptu gaggle with reporters at the White House, en route to fundraisers in New York.

He added: "We are a very reciprocal nation with me as the head. When somebody does something negative to us in terms of a country, we do it to them."

Amnesty International and a growing list of countries have begun issuing warnings about travel to the United States because of gun violence, including mass shootings over the weekend in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio.

Know the risks: Travel advisories by country

Warnings: Amnesty International issues warning about travel to US amid 'high levels of gun violence'

Warnings, which are of varying degrees of intensity, have come from a list of countries that include Uruguay, Venezuela, Japan, Germany, Ireland, Canada and New Zealand.

1. I think Amnesty International overreacted here.

Just my opinion.

[Wednesdays]

6. And what of the various countries cited?

[virgogal]

8. I'm familiar with the US,not the other countries.

People across this country are out and about daily without ever seeing gun violence---I never have,and most haven't seen it.

[happy feet]

13. I see

So, not a problem rising to level of Advisory until MOST people in the US see gun violence directly?

[Blue_true]

21. The fact is ANY American that goes out to eat, shopping or to a movie

can end up in a mass shooting situation. So it does not matter that you have not seen such violence, I hope you never see it, but who is to say you won't.

The advisories are normal. We do that to other countries when a specific condition in those countries warrant American citizens being told to exercise caution when going to those countries, or not go at all.

[Haggis for Breakfast]

32. The US Department of State issues the same kinds of warnings ALL THE TIME

for countries they deem dangerous to American tourists.

Somebody needs to tell this moron that the US is NOT one of his companies.

[rzemanfl]

31. I bet most of the dead people this year never did either. n/t

[cwydro]

37. Boom.

Sadly, spot on.

[rzemanfl]

38. Well, we can't ask them, but I think it's a good guess. n/t

[cwydro]

39. Yes, I'm sure you're right.

Seems the likelihood is growing everyday.

[Kingofalldems]

16. No they didn't.

[rockfordfile]

17. No it is not safe here when a Nazi republican can easily murder people in a Mall

Because of un-American Walmart you can walk into with assault weapon and start murdering people in one of their stores. Walmart is promoting murdering people of a different race. Walmart allows murders to walk into their store to kill people. Instead they took down game promotions.

Walmart is one messed up and un-American company

[Eliot Rosewater]

26. Uh huh, yeah, sure, you bet

[CincyDem]

2. Ohhh...I can't wait until he puts Japan, Germany, Ireland and Canada on the "no visit" list...

...He can issue anything he wants and nobody is going to pay attention to it. When he shuts down US Passport access to these places, then we're gonna see some chit fly.

[BlueMTexpat]

3. With Trump, the Stupid is

literally beyond quantifying!

[Wellstone ruled]

4. What the hell!

Stupid,I guess those Thousands of Canuks who cross the Border Daily for work and Business are going to be quite. Not. Here in Nevada we have lost the China Tourist and it sounds like the Japanese and other Asians spending their Vacation money else where.

Next month starts the Canadian Snow Bird Migration,if last year was a hint,looking like this year is going to be a bust. Bet they head for the Caribbean

[Takket]

5. yeah because that is a WAY more rational thing to do than actually dealing with your problems.......

[groundloop]

11. BINGO....

[Va Lefty]

7. Jeez, there is no end to the moronic jackasserly behaviour he engages in

[Blue_true]

22. He is like a child. nt

[LiberalFighter]

9. They should specify Mar a Lago as a place.

Any Trump property.

[bdamomma]

10. Well

he's vengeful POS bully, I'm sure the Airline Companies will get his ass.

Turning the other cheek??? He interprets that as his big ass. What a POS, I just wish a higher power would just take him.

[SammyWinstonJack]

20. A bully and a coward.

[groundloop]

12. We are a very reciprocal nation with me as the head

Damn, tRump has his word salad going today.

[lpbk2713]

14. Stay away from Trump Resorts and Trump Hotels.

Spend your money elsewhere. Give it to his competitors.

[AJT]

15. This is insane. We have mob boss as president.

He added: "We are a very reciprocal nation with me as the head. When somebody does something negative to us in terms of a country, we do it to them."

[bdamomma]

19. Don

the fucking con.

[RainCaster]

18. What will El Douche do when the whole world finds him repulsive?

[Wounded Bear]

23. IIRC, tourism to the US was already down...

This oughta help.

Bully psychology: The floggings will continue until morale improves.

[raccoon]

24. He's always threatening retaliating. And sometimes it does.

He’s always threatening retaliating. And sometimes it does. This is getting old.

I don’t know if they could find a person to be president who would be inept than Trump..., or else more determined to destroy the country.

[icymist]

25. "We are a very reciprocal nation with me as the head"

This is how a dictator talks, not a President of a Democratic Republic with a Congress.

[Demovictory9]

34. plus 1

[elleng]

28. NATURALLY!

IF he could read and write, I'd suggest he might write The Bully Book.

[Iliyah]

29. STFU

You and the GOPs are fucking up this country.

[rzemanfl]

30. Oh, count on him to make things worse. n/t

33. It's hurting Florida. The decrease in foreign tourists.

I just reserved a room on Florida’s Nature coast at a cool old style Florida inn right on the water with docks for your boat. When you get their list of rules one states prominently ‘no firearms allowed on property, even concealed’. Basically telling gun nuts they are not welcomed.

They get lots of foreign guests. It pathetic we have reached that point.

I sent them an email thanking them for the policy.

, sis.

You're right. he's the boy president. I can only imagine the hell that went on his family home back there in Jamaica Estates. Now he gets to take it all out on the rest of the world.

36. World-leading stupidity. 🤦🏿‍♂️ Way, way back when the U.S. had a functioning State Department,

America would negotiate with the aggrieved countries to find an alternative. This isn't the first time some country has issued a travel warning about visiting the USA.

Every responsible country looks out for its nationals abroad. Now that the far right has declared open season on immigrants in addition to the almost daily mass shootings, they have every reason to be concerned.
