I don't think that most Hillary supporters would qualify.

There's always Haiti.
I see you've looked into moving to Canada. Was that when Obama was elected? lol You are still here, so apparently you didn't qualify. lol

Apparently, you are unaware that Christie had ZERO courtroom experience, prior to buying the office of US Attorney for NJ with his brother's ill-gotten gains on Wall Street. And, once he bought that office from Dubya, he completely relied on his underlings who had actual courtroom experience, hence his pattern of hiring them--almost to the exclusion of all others--for his Gubernatorial administration.

As US Attorney, he was essentially just an office administrator who was given to spectacular public displays that often resulted in...nothing. Just ask the people who had "boxes of evidence" prominently removed from their homes and offices by his investigators, and--only in the aftermath--did it turn out that they marched before the camera with empty boxes, and that a substantial percentage of his cases didn't even result in an indictment. However, all of that...theater...was great for setting up his run for his next gig as the Governor of NJ.

And whether you like Newt or not, the guy is very intelligent. I don't think you will find anyone on either side of the aisle who would dispute that.

Ummm...NO.
See below for a differing opinion, from a noted Conservative source.
One of my favorite commentators is Paul Mulshine, the Star-Ledger's Conservative/Libertarian op-ed columnist. About 5 years ago, he concurred with a characterization of Newt Gingrich as "a stupid man's idea of what an intelligent man sounds like". This, of course, is over and above Gingrich's serial-adulterer semi-private life.

Yes, this commentary goes back several years, but it is still relevant to the ethical/pseudo-intellectual swamp that is exemplified by Newt Gingrich:

One is one the early end of Alzheimers and the other just threw all his "associates " under the bus on "Bridge Gate".

Good thing that I have a sense of humor and have a lifetime of NJ thick skin otherwise not me but many others would've taken that personally.

Yes I was disappointed in Obama being elected x 2, but I never thought of relocating out of the USA because of him.

EIGHT plus long years of Obama BS for me is going to come to an end (thank GOD!) and me giving the current administration and its "D" POTUS candidate "the flipping of the bird" and voting for DONALD J. TRUMP FELT GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!

You should leave now. No one is stopping you. Don't just talk, take action. Bring your friends and many of the celebrities who pledged to leave with you. You can bring your liberal ideas there and stay tell the Canadians how to live their life. I am sure they will love them.

Thanks for the link which clearly uses the words RUMORS and RUMORED. Passing along rumors is not reporting.

There will be plenty of time to bash Trump for actual actions.

For just a moment, couldn't we follow the advice of Obama and Clinton and give the man a chance?

As a Trump voter I know that I will NOT agree with everything he does as POTUS same as with any past POTUS.

No POTUS is perfect and will be able to satisfy some, most or everyone all of the time - that's just life.
