You can't make this stuff up. An organization analyzed social media postings that were critical of Trump, and found that in 4%, the writers threatened to leave the country if he is elected president.
And of the 200,000 "threaten to leave country" posts they analyzed, 5,800 threatened to move to Alaska and another 1,500 chose Hawaii as their destination to leave the USA.
Are these the type of voters the democrats are hoping will show up to the polling stations on election day? People who don't even realize Hawaii and Alaska are part of the US? It really brings the term "low information voter" to a whole new level.
edit: Suddenly it begins to make sense how a "community organizer" with essentially no real world experience was elected POTUS...twice.

These are the kind of people who don't even know 1st grade geography. If they're not even educated on American territory, they definitely have not done any kind of research on Trump's policies. They just feed whatever the MSM feeds them.

Why assume these are US people, voters or Democrats? Your assumption says more about you than anything else.
BTW, the conservative Club for Growth just dumped $1 million on TV ads in Iowa to Dump the Trump.

They are saying that they'll leave the US if Trump is elected president, which would only make sense, you know, if they were American citizens. I suppose there could be a handful of international students in there who are here on a student visa and REALLY hate Donald Trump for some reason, but... I think it's a pretty safe assumption to make that Americans... would threaten to leave.. America...
And given that Trump is running for the GOP, wouldn't it stand to reason that most of these posters would be Democrats? Democrats, I find, get a lot of their political news from social media like Twitter and Facebook, which would fall into line with this.

On the other hand why wouldn't one assume this? You also didn't give any reason for your apparent position. The question says more about you than anything else.
. . . . and how many thousands of conservatives "threaten" to leave the country if Obama is elected (or reelected)? Please follow through. I loved how those dummies thought that they can just waltz into another country (even Canada) and just live and work there - sounds just like an illegal, huh?

First let me say that anyone who promises to leave the country depending on who is elected - is a moron. We heard the SAME thing over and over when Obama won. It never happens. And WHO sits around and waits to see who is elected - to see how their life is gonna go? I don't depend on a President to make my life good or bad - that's all up to ME. Regardless of who is President, I'll continue to breathe in and out and go about my daily business ~ as should we all.
Now - it does not stand to reason that 'most of these posters would be Democrats". Establishment Republicans LOATHE Donald Trump so I do think your assumption is grounded in partisan politics more than anything else.
Actually, I know a whole lot of Democrats that see Trump as a lesser evil than say, Huckabee, Walker , Rubio etc.
