      Some people treat the U.S. like the only option. Turns out, it’s not. And honestly, other countries have better healthcare + vacation.

      We aren’t coming back. There’ll be 20-25 years of something that resembles the US but that’s about it. No country in the world will sign an agreement/treaty that is for more than 3 years because they know that the next administration may not honor it. You can’t conduct worldwide business 3 years at a time. We’ll have trouble going to any country because we’ll be disease carriers without vaccinations. No will trust our food exports because we can’t prove it’s regulated. All elections will be endlessly in court. The supreme court will become a rubber stamp of corruption, the difference will be it’s out in the open. Pardons will be on a cash basis. We’re already losing brain power at the best universities and it’s going to get worse. This anti-DEI shit will taint hiring/promotion decisions for at least a decade. Nobody from the current admin will go to prison and maxwell will be released.

      Greatest country in the world and people are running away from it, Trump is a meracilous failure.

      Good for you if you’re able to leave. The rest of us have to try and fix what’s being broken because we have no other choice.

      I think about this all the time. I don’t know how I feel about leaving all I’ve ever known and everyone I love. I don’t know what the US will look like in 10 years but I’ll probably still be here.

      I live in a quiet northern town in the Netherlands, and I’ve started to hear more American accents in the off-season when tourists are few, making me wonder how many have taken up residence.

    11. CosmoLamer on

      Can confirm. Moved 9 months ago, I make less money but my quality of life is much greater.

    13. gpnrunxm on

      No time to read it cause I have to work, as I am stuck here. How and where do they go instead?

    14. twirlingmypubes on

      To quote a Screeching Weasel lyric, „I would if I could but I don’t have any money.“

      Next thing you know, Trump will be demanding the USA build a wall to keep Americans in, and have the USA pay for it 🙄

      So glad to be a dual citizen of Japan. Honestly the safest country and actually livable. 

    19. paolilon on

      Such a bullshit article – they’re fleeing the US for obvious reasons. Republicans have made the US unlivable.

      Left during the first Trump presidency. Best decision of my life wouldn’t change a thing.

    22. Listening_Heads on

      Yes, many of them hogtied in the back of vans. I hope someday that there’s restitution for these people and consequences for ICE.

    23. ErnieCuneo on

      I have dual US/Italian citizenship. Moved to Ireland in 2019. Never moving back.

    25. grrgrrtigergrr on

      My wife works for a global company, we are seriously considering London. The only thing holding us back right now is our high school aged kids.

    26. nonsensestuff on

      I’m working on getting my Canadian passport through the new generational pathway. It’s surreal to be considering leaving altogether— esp since I’ll be leaving behind everyone I know and love— but I have health conditions that make me extremely vulnerable to the bullshit this administration is doing. So gotta do something to try to save myself at this rate

      Many Americans are descended from immigrants who knew when it was time to head for the exits and get their butts to the US. Many of them know that by doing so, their ancestors avoided a lot of death and trauma and gave their descendants a good life for 100+ years. The Americans leaving in this era are simply carrying on that tradition. 

    28. Cagnazzo82 on

      Understandable. The rest of the world doesn’t have to deal with deranged republicans worshipping lying criminals.

    31. Particular-Bike-9275 on

      What’s funny about that is that one of the main arguments for giving wealthy and corporations lower taxes in the big beautiful bill is that it encourages people to come to America to do business.

      Seeing so many Americans leaving the country makes me think that’s a bullshit concept.

    32. RenideoS on

      Thing is it isn’t just this, is it? I mean, if you want to raise children, going to a place where school shootings aren’t a thing, where there’s universal healthcare if something goes wrong, where you have more time to spend with them due to mandatory leave, where you can get parental leave following births, where infant and maternal mortality are much lower etc etc

      It’s a materialistic question that existed before any of this, and it was always more left-leaning people who tended to leave because they were more likely to have travelled, to be educated, to realise it could be better elsewhere, and to be able to manage to achieve that move.

      You see this in a lot of societies that enter into this spiral, where the demography of the society tilts because, frankly, the people who definitely stay increasingly do things to push those who might leave away.

    33. MoxyGirl8118 on

      Been looking into this for a while. Sometimes it’s just to relieve the grief of missing pre-Trump America. While not perfect, the rest of the world still respected us and we still respected Democracy.

      One interesting tidbit I learned is unless you denounce your U.S. citizenship, you still have to file U.S. taxes based on worldwide income. There are some foreign programs that help to alleviate or eliminate this like Foreign Earned Income Exclusion and Foreign Tax Credits.

      So, migration to another country? While the homeland cracks down on migration.

      It is ironic, isn’t it?

      (I’m aware that the people leaving the US are not necessarily supporting the current US politics)

    38. Jerk182 on

      Fuck no, stay and fight. America is a great place to live without Trump and all his enablers. I’m old and I grew up here. Fuck Donald Trump and his Russian Mafia friends. Remember Helsinki.

      I’ve been in Mexico for three months now. Temporary residency visa. I’m so much happier! We’ll see if I can make it all work with my employer (they are working on a secondment to allow me to stay past 6 months) I pray pray pray it gets approved because I don’t not want to go back in 3 months.

      My ancestors escaped the Holocaust – I would be dishonoring their quick and hard work if I just stayed and didn’t try to escape – plus my husband and children are Mexican American and they feel hunted everyday in the US. We refuse to live in fear because our countrymen were too stupid and racist to vote correctly

      I feel conflicted about this, as a millennial, the country has been a complete fucking disaster for all but a few years of my adult life, I don’t feel that I owe it anything. It kind of feels like being married to a violent, narcissistic, aggressively stupid spouse. Oddly, I still have a desire to fight to make it better for those that I love.

    42. cantbrainwocoffee on

      We are leaving in two years. My husband holds a passport from an EU country in addition to the US. We have kids and I hope they come too but they’ll all be adults by the time we leave so the decision is theirs.

    43. Jujubatron on

      Naah please stay in your own country. Half of you don’t know what a woman is the other half thinks other countries pay your tariffs.
