I actually wanted to do that years ago. I saw this coming as a “for certain” in 2015. I’m older, on SS and have 3 little pugs that I cannot leave. Own my home here so as much as I wanted a peaceful retirement I guess I’ll be fighting for my grandsons future as long as I live.

I’m angry at every person that voted for him. But I believe he was placed there. Our votes may have never mattered.

Thank you for caring about us!

On June 16, 2015, when Trump announced his candidacy, he came down the golden escalator with Melania. At that time, I knew nothing about the man except for the ad he took out in the NYT about the (innocent) Central Park Five. But I found myself suddenly jumping up from my chair and shouting, "It's Hitler!!" And unfortunately, I was right.

I've known who he is since the 80's: a vile, awful, narcissistic POS. I seriously did not think he had a chance in 2016. Boy was I wrong.

I've known this since he was my landlord in early 70s.

OMG! That must have sucked so hard! Both he and his father were so famously terrible that Woodie Guthrie even wrote a song called "Old Man Trump".

Wow. I didn't know abt the song. Well, end of el Trumpo story. He sued me when I left (for obviously untrue things--like unpaid rent for which I had receipts.) I had moved out of state, so he had local lawyer deliver suit notice. I wrote up my own defense--biology teacher here--and went to court. He nor lawyer showed. I won.

He was a notorious ass hole in NJ. I was raised on the Jersey shore. When he built those tacky casinos, he ripped off my ,friends who worked for him.contractors who built the places . And was a sue happy SOB. Put my uncle out of business denying him payment . So yeah. He needs to pay for his BS

I live in SC, so he was completely off the map down here. I was completely disgusted when I read about an article about his horrific full-page ad in the NYT. But that's the only thing I knew about him. Like you, I was STUNNED (and cried for 3 days, couldn't go anywhere) when he one. He was stunned, too. He'd only done it for the publicity.

My reaction was similar. I thought to myself “the AntiChrist descending.”

I surely have a grumble. In the last 25 years I’ve lost two, and now have one with severe scoliosis, one diabetic (2 shots a day) and my boy is a handsome wild boy. Looks like a pug, acts like a Jack Russell!!

I have the same fears that Trump won by criminal actions.

Our house is on the market. We've lived here for 35 years. It's time to leave. Canada doesn't want retirees though, does it?

I have looked into it. Seems Canada really seeking great potential employees, particularly in certain fields (health, education mong them).

I’ve thought about selling my home and purchasing an RV. I’d head out to our National Parks while they are still whole. Can you imagine the tragedy that is coming to all we hold dear?

It’s almost humorous these guys think they will live forever, and let us not forget ole Clarence Thomas just loves his 1/2 million RV gift. Yes an illegal gift never revealed until the world found out. Man that guy took us on a road trip, even shared the Walmart experience with us.

Around here, WalmArts no longer allow RVs in parking lots (for at least three years).

Jason Stanley, a Yale Professor has taken a position at the University of Toronto

A writer of books, he will not have to worry about ICE-SS units putting him in handcuffs.

I know that the great Prof. Timothy Snyder, also from Yale, has done the same.

Hopefully, for the health of humanity......medical experts will flee Trumpageddon for places they will be able to carry on their work.

They should leave ASAP.......before ICE-SS units arrive at their doors

Honestly, I think the knocking on doors will begin unless We the People, continue to fight, and Judges continue to follow the law as they have been doing so well in recent weeks. Here's hoping that the federal judges can stand up against the politically weaponized DOJ. (All except for SCOTUS, of course.)

Coast to coast boycotts..protests every weekend.....the creation of counter groups to negate the Trumpian-Nazi militas.

Just waiting around for the next elections is not enough

I wish. I'm too old to work or start a business, so there's no way to get a visa that I know of.

If I could...we have to fight what is happening. I'd love to fight together with Canada from Canada. Thank you for believing in democracy!
