2) If he does, I believe he'll find the system of checks and balances in place to be a humbling experience that will put him in his place, and that ain't Pennsylvania Avenue.
And if I really had to move, it'd be to Spain or Italy, both missing from the list.
Many progressive Americans are realizing that life is too short to live in a nation that fails to embrace progress, change and advancement into the developed world. Due to conservative policies and conservative culture (god, guns, religion, hating LGBT people, etc.), we feel that America is a backwards, racist nation in which many people are anti-intellectualism and anti-political correctness, unfortunately. I am certainly one of those who are becoming increasingly disenchanted with my country and government. Fortunately, there are many other nations around the world to choose from, in case Trump becomes president.
Personally, I would choose Canada because it's beautiful and it's within driving distance to my family in northern Connecticut. How about you?
If you go before the general election, I'll chip in.
Trump wants a massive tax cut for the wealthy.
(While I don't agree, he can't do that without congressional approval.)
Trump wants to deport 11 million undocumented immigrants.
(THIS I agree with. If they are here illegally, they are criminals, period!)
Trump wants to ban an entire religion from entering the country.
(Actually, he wants full background checks on Muslims, to attempt to be sure they are not radicalized. I agree!)
Trump is anti-political correctness.
(I am too.)
These things bother me and we cannot afford to see his policies come to fruition. He's an extremist and he says NOTHING during his rallies other than we're gonna have victories and make America great again. It's a total JOKE!
My comments are in parentheses.
As for the vote, I would have to say "None Of The Above".
You forgot about the 12 million and their families that will be moving to Mexico.
So they will move out on their own after all. Good to now.
