Canada’s gonna swing the same way next year so you’re not really escaping from anything anyways
Already swung super anti-immigration as of earlier this year, so the move to Canada plan isn’t going to be as easy either
But I’m one of the good ones!
Yeah the Trump win is only gonna help conservatives…I really hate them and their leader, but Trudeau has shit the bed for so long that people are just sick of him
It’s not much better over here anyways, anti trans laws and oil industry dick sucking is ramping up more than ever.

Seems like it’s only going to get worse, too.
Well, then kick him out. Or maybe guillotine him out, so that he doesn’t return.
Like, if people were actually that irked that he won, they’d be doing something. But no, from what I hear El Trumpo actually won the popular vote: the US wants to be fascist. Maybe Canada too. (No, not as in the US wants to be Canada… although that’d be an improvement…)
I’m concerned that there is no doubt this is what America wants.
…What, being like Canada? 👀
So far, it’s only been his supporters trying to kill him. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I love the assumption that other countries would just take American emigrants.
It’s a shit ton harder than people realize… well at least to go anywhere in the industrialized world. Unless you are independently wealthy or have an extremely high demand job.
Billy Bob who’s career is working at McDonalds isn’t going to get approved.
I’m considering applying for asylum to Ireland
You can outlive this. There’s a good chance he can’t. Be strong, and look out for those more vulnerable than yourself.
I’ve been looking for silver linings. The two I’ve found are:
-
Trump probably won’t live to see the end of his term. Dude is old and not exactly healthy. One could argue Vance taking his place would be worse, but I’m choosing to focus on the positives here.
-
Trump winning very likely prevented a civil war. I know a ton of people who had been stocking up on supplies and weapons. Again, one could argue giving these people the keys to the kingdom probably wasn’t the smartest move, but again I’m trying to focus on the positives.
I think he’s the devil and he’ll never die. I wouldn’t count on him dying. In my experience really poisonous people live a long time.
Agreed on both points. The second means today is safer although Project 2025 spells danger ahead.
As for Trump, his physical deterioration and dementia and just general chaos of intentions are more of a check on him accomplishing evil than anything legal or political. When he runs the economy completely off the rails will it spark anything in the midterms? Will his Cabinet change every week? How long until he “never met” Elon?
So we draw breath, and persevere.
Maybe the left will start the civil war. Then again, they wouldn’t even get out to vote, so.
The right was unified behind their belief that the election was stolen from Trump, and wanted him put back in power.
The left can’t agree on leadership at all, and doesn’t think this election was any more stolen than it was in 2000/2016.

Safety?
Canada is just america but 5-10 years behind on the crazy policies. It really isn’t any better and cost of living is often higher than in america.
Stay strong people!
WeMost of us* survived the last Trump presidency, we got this.Gaza won’t survive. Ukraine likely won’t survive.
American democracy’s survival is questionable at best.
I’m not saying ‘give up’. But we also have to recognize the magnitude of the impact this election is going to have. And many people who stay here despite everything are going to have their lives at risk.
in simple words. We’re fucked.
American democracy? already dead. we have already slipped into constitutional oligarchy territory
Sure, but there’s also half of your countrymen to think about
True. Trump does not hold a monopoly on suck.
Immigration in most developed countries is stricter than the US. And we all know the US’s immigration restrictions are insane.
I remember that being said by the Hitlers (normal people but had the no longer so nice last name) about changing last name.
If only they had stuck with it, who would have thought Hitler would come back in style again?

If it gets bad I actually will move to Canada, I’m a dual citizen
Draft dodging?
Jokes on you, I’m too fat and mentally ill to be in the military anyways.
Yes, the joke is clearly on me.
Don’t move here. We have a bad enough housing crisis without a bunch of Americans showing up to take up homes and jobs. Stay in your country and fix your damn mess
