Not sure if I'm reading you right... sounds like you're talking more on the political level, as opposed to how the average citizen on the streets will feel about welcoming Americans?

Another sensitive question: With everything that's happening, do you worry about another major terrorist attack?

On a person to person level? It'll go along with the local politics. I'm sure people in the AFD in Germany and the Tories in the UK will welcome Americans with open arms while those with less fascist tendancies will give us dirty looks.

I don't worry about a terrorist attack here at all. We're a very large country, if 9/11 proved anything it's that we will over react and start a new war with the terrorists cause because waging war is profitable for our elite, and at this late hour, with both of our major parties pushing us into fascism over the last half century (unrestrained capitalism that both advocate for always leads to the marriage of government and the corporate elite) makes me more than sympathetic to domestic terrorism, because our constitution has been captured and we need revolution here. The levers of correction for this iteration of government have been bought, sold, and melted down for scrap. We need to start over, and that requires pain.

Both of our major parties would rather have Fascists in charge than leftists concerned with the public good. There is no possible way to vote ourselves into a positive state. 1980 was our very last, last, last chance to begin to course correct with our vote. Every regime since has been loudly and proudly on the take by our corpo Fascists. More domestic terrorism in the vein of what Luigi did would be far more productive than what we are doing now: hateful bullies gloating about all the vulnerable groups they're actively harming with their vote through their weak strongman, and legions of people like me, cowards that just watch in horror and do nothing more than cast a harm reduction ballot every 2 years if that.

Thanks for taking the time, I appreciate it. The news isn't the best source of information anymore.
