This is not an HN worthy post but since it is here I really hope he executes on this plan, thus ensuring the instantiation of the "Markwayne Mullin effect" in the chronicles of pop culture. What exactly that will be- can only speculate. But it will be something. Airport owners do not eff around.

San Francisco is the global tech hub, and SFO is its airport. Banning international arrivals there would severely compromise the entire tech industry.

Thank you for stating that. I feel like I must be taking crazy pills, that this is not a 5-alarm fire.

Just curious, how is this not an HN worthy post? Seems extremely YC/SV relevant for one thing.

One one hand, it's political news, which I abhor on HN. On the other hand, international travel out of SF provides underlying support for the tech industry and without it, would cause deep headaches. On balance then, yeah, I don't mind this on HN.
