I just read on utube that it will be very difficult for anyone from Germany, France, Holland, Ireland, Denmark, Sweden,Belgium, and three others to enter or travel in the US if they have ever posted anything on their electronic devices that is negative of the US, it’s policies or its leaders. They will also have to sign very detailed questionnaires about their politics and values. What will Europe do to citizens of the US in return and will US citizens be refused reentry if they have taken part in demonstrations or post even if it was years ago? I would like to hear if anyone has had trouble getting into the us from these countries.

Sorry but don't trust YouTube or Facebook or social media. Those are not good sources of information. Also you should be aware of this post from the Webmaster :

Those are not good sources of information.
But they are excellent sources of misinformation. Or if you prefer, lies.

Lynn beat me to it. Either cite your source or provide a link to the video you are referring to. While there appears to be snippets of reality in what you said , insofar as some of this has happened and no doubt will continue for non US citizens irrespective of the country their passport is from, a great deal of what you cite is (at present) garbage.

The best approach to reading anything online is to use an enormous amount of skepticism. In this case, just a wee bit is needed.

Thank you all. I was upset and scared when I read that vlog. I sure hope it is false information as I loved to travel and I would hope all who do will continue to be able to travel.
