There will surely be lots of fleeing Trump voters too and idk if we want those. I guess they wouldnt be allowed to vote here anyways so it wouldnt have an immediate effect on our already worsening political landscape.
One of the most selfish things I've ever heard was a trump voting coworker said Trump is going to make the US better for [List of reasons]. I said that Trump is actually just doing [List of obvious things he's actually doing]. She just replied that if he does ask the dictator stuff, she'll just leave the country.
Her implication wasn't that purple who don't like it should leave. She was literally saying that if trump fucks up the country, she has connections outside the US and will just dip out of the shit she caused.
i highly doubt they will be fleeing, but mostly the ones grifting off of trump supporters will be fleeing.
The rest of the world should do the exact opposite of American fascism; if an American tourist has anything pro-Trump posted on their public socials, reject their visa.
The MAGA mental illness is a threat to global security, and should be treated as such.
We're gonna have to build a loooooooot of housing quickly... :/
Cowards. Stay and fight god damnit.
I think the US is a lost cause. The fact is, most Americans like this country the way it is. Sure, plenty of Americans don't like Trump, but, for most of those people, if they could replace Trump but keep everything else more or less the same, they would be perfectly content to do so.
the USA slow decline was a long time coming, simply its only because STEM graduates(with graduate degrees and MDs) have emigrated to the USA to keep ahead of other nations, oh and plus the abused labor from south america to keep many business afloat. usa being a right wing country from the start, hasnt helped it either way. HCOL and certain lack of jobs have made unpalatable in some fields.
