The United States federal government has said loud and clear that not only are foreign visitors not wanted, they are risking their freedom by setting foot on American soil.

Which makes it even more puzzling that European automotive restoration YouTubers are now moving to the US, or starting to spend extended periods of time there. Mat Armstrong literally bought a house in Florida (might've been in Miami proper) so he and his crew could hang out while they restore that forex scammer's Bugatti and Sreten (M539Restorations) has been restoring a super rare E31 in Virginia for... I don't know how long he was in the states since the videos take longer to come out than all the action itself, but it must've been a few weeks at least to make 3 hour-long videos.

Granted they're all white folks, but so am I and I wouldn't want to park my ass there while Trump's in charge.

You don't really NEED to fly to the US to restore old BMWs or crashed Bugattis though. They're quite literally doing it voluntarily.
