The government is doing exactly what it promised. "Less foreigners" was one of the selling points of Mr Trump. Sure, it means a bit less of soft power and international startups, but that's a cost the electorate was prepared for. Oh, and a slight dip in tourism. I don't understand what's so shocking about this. BTW I don't think anyone has ever done a true risk-benefit analysis of such a move, so while it's baseless to say it'll bring any good, it's also baseless to say it'll bring bad. Because realistically, many people going to the US simply don't have an alternative. It'll take decades before Europe decides to hold a meeting to schedule a conversation about improving innovation.
