Makes no sense at all and the analogy is really bad. GDPR holds on US businesses only for the EU users. If they don't have EU users they don't have to care about the GDPR. US businesses can have different set of rules for the US and EU market (that's what Facebook plans to do about the GDPR). The GDPR doesn't apply for the US market and the US users. Also US companies can limit their service to the US market if they don't agree with the GDPR.
