    Yeah, it’s insane. Usually I don’t follow what Trump says 1:1, but read about it in some news article, social media, etc. That is bad enough, but when I actually hear him speak sometimes, I need to cringe so bad… And then I remember a majority of Americans either decided “yep, that guy seems the best option” or “can’t see a difference between the candidates” and I lose all hope in humanity.

      Honestly i think its just the endgame now for America. Trump gave tons of money to build up a massive secret police (ICE) and while they may come “only” for foreign criminals right now, they will be used against Americans in the future. It simular to Hitler and how he went after jews in the beginning.

      Also the entire thing with Trump about bringing as much of production within their own borders, feels like he plans for the country to become more and more isolated from other countries in the future.

      I think its a good time to look at options to get out of the United States if you can.

        I’m not in the US and not planning to go there any time soon, so I’m good. I agree with the sentiment in general though😅
