Trump's "Travel Ban" actually will HURT the US economy: My personal example [View all]
My husband works for one of the US's few remaining major manufacturers.
He's a manufacturing engineer for them.
One of the company's critical pieces of equipment has been on the fritz for about a month now.
It is actually made in Germany by a well-known German engineering company.
German employees have been coming back and forth and working with my husband on this piece of critical equipment.
One was supposed to arrive at 8pm tonight, with a part that was supposed to finally fix the problem.
Now, the German company is not letting the guy travel because they have no guarantees on when/if the guy will be allowed to return or how he might be treated arriving at the airport so close to the ban (what if his flight gets delayed and misses the deadline, etc. etc.)
Now, this major American company cannot get their critical machinery repaired in a timely way, due to the insanity of this "ban" that really isn't a ban, but his petty vindictiveness over our European allies.
