Packing your bags? The Americans who said they'd flee the country if Trump won

Californians are looking into the possibility of moving abroad after becoming increasingly 'fed up' with the divisiveness of politics in the US.

A recent report suggests those living in the Golden State in particular are considering a move overseas - or even across the border into Mexico.

Experts specializing in relocating expats overseas say they have seen a notable increase in the numbers of Americans exploring options leave the country with figures from 2024 far exceeding those of 2023.

Henley & Partners, a firm specializing in international residency and citizenship, said approximately 80 percent of its US clients cite political concerns as their main reason for looking to move elsewhere.

'They want an option to escape,' said Basil Mohr Elzeki to the LA Times. 'Now with the election, people have opinions on both ends, and they're worried.'

Elzeki, who heads the firm's North American operations noted how heightened tensions surrounding the current election cycle have been driving many to explore life beyond US borders.

Similarly, Jen Barnett, founder of Expatsi, an organization that assists Americans in moving overseas, noted how there had been a significant spike in website traffic ever since the first presidential debate between Biden and Trump.

They’re going to quickly discover that very few countries have the permissive immigration system that we do.

Quite simple: Liquidate all their assets. Wend their way to Cuba. Hand over their cash as they enter and, tada! they are in social utopia. No work or worry ever again. The best medical care in the world. FREE! Equality coming out the ying yang. All those old, vintage cars still in use! A proper education for the kids.
Don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya!

Rob Reiner said he would set himself on fire if Trump won.

Wonder if that will be on pay-per-view?

If they really believe in the Dims policy, they should just go right away to any country of their desire and enter without passport. Perhaps any European countries, Islamic countries which they seem to be fond of, or Latin American countries so it’s even out: Hispanic go to the US,Americans go to Latin America (and interact directly by calling locals Latinx 🤔)

They’re so mentally challenged they really have no choice but to leave honestly.

IMO that fat, ugly, no talent skank should change her name if she hates this country so much.

venezuela ferrera has a better ring to it.

After Obama was re-elected, I considered emigration. I took a look at Australia and Mexico. Australia would accept engineers and doctors but was otherwise pretty restrictive. Mexico required high wealth.

I heard one report that the Obamas fled the country on election night.

Anyone else hear that? The source was a reliable one, but I’ve seen no confirmation.
