I keep hearing that Americans left or right of the spectrum are prepared to leave the country in droves every time their opposing party's nominee is elected, and nothing ever happens, save for maybe a handful of people. That's been going on for the last 20 years, if not longer. Empty words at this point.
I'm currently in the process of immigrating to another country from America because of this.
The immigration group I worked with has hard statistics showing a rapid increase in Americans applying for bias with Trump presidency, and his now potential reelection.
Out of a group of ten friends, two of us are getting visas due to trump politics, and two others are going down their family ancestry route for visas into Germany. So that's 40% of the people I know, including myself.
It's not cheap to do this either. It's a real commitment in money, time, energy, and risk. But that's what it takes to have a plan B for if the shit show lands again, because it's a full on dictator ship next round.
