Who else can't stand the people who say they will leave the country if Trump is elected?
Fast forward to election day... Citizens from all 50 states come out to vote, the votes are counted, Trump wins the majority, and Trump is elected.
Explain to me why you would think about moving out of the country? Because our democratic system operated successfully, and Trump is elected?

Well they might leave because they're afraid that Trump actually meant it when he said that "He’s running his country, and at least he’s a leader, unlike what we have on this country. I think our country does plenty of killing also, Joe, so you know." about Putin's killing of journalists. And that he really wants to not just bring back torture as an instrument of national policy, but use a lot more extreme torture. And that he wants to trash the economy by starting trade wars with Mexico, China and Japan. And that he meant it when he said that China was right: “When the students poured into Tiananmen Square, the Chinese government almost blew it. Then they were vicious, they were horrible, but they put it down with strength. That shows you the power of strength. Our country is right now perceived as weak … as being spit on by the rest of the world –” And then there was the time he threatened the Washington Post with nonspecific "big problems" if he gets elected.
Now maybe he's just a blowhard who can't be taken seriously. Well, probably. But if you do take him seriously, seems to me there are grounds for any opponent of Trump to regard him actually winning as reason to put some space between themselves and any place under Trump's authority.

No one will be able to leave if Trump is elected. He isn't boiling the really big wall to keep Mexicans out, he is building it to keep americans in.

Nobody is moving out of the country because Trump becomes president unless Trump starts WWIII.

How about because it's a short step to having all minorities rounded up and either deported, locked up, or murdered. That he's gong to cut all forms of welfare so he can pocket it and feel good about kids starving. Or, his "annexation" of other nations, his version of hostile take overs, to keep wars going even longer. Or, maybe he just sells the US to China for a hefty profit.

These people assume that if they leave the country it will be an easy transition and completely worthwhile instead of waiting for him to be impeached.
