Surprisingly, there are still libertarians and conservatives out there who seem convinced Trump is some sort of worst case scenario as a presidential candidate. There are reasons of course to question his conservative credentials, his economic plans, and even his honesty, but anyone qualified to vote in a Republican primary should be able to agree that leftists fleeing the country is a good thing. Trump is the only candidate spurring any such “threats” from our communist neighbors.
Al Sharpton, Raven Symone, John Stewart, Whoopi Goldberg, Rosie O’Donnell, and Samuel L. Jackson are just seven highly recognizable names threatening to leave the country if Donald Trump is elected. This certainly isn’t because he lacks the right wing credentials they expect of a Republican president, but rather because their leftist values are so horribly offended by his mere attitude that they would find living under his rule intolerable.
But it’s not just celebrities plotting their escape. Your average run of the mill Democratic primary voter is also seeking to flee. As results rolled in with Donald Trump dominating the Super Tuesday primaries, Google says searches for “How to move to Canada” spiked 350%. When they did, they surely found out about other Americans who fled during the Bush administration, enjoying the Canadian socialized health care system, strict gun regulations, and leftist multicultural attitudes.
Canadians couldn’t be happier. They celebrate the idea of more leftist Americans pouring across their borders to join the Syrian refugees they are also welcoming. Anyone who will vote to expand the powers of the Canadian government is enthusiastically supported, though dissidents need not apply.
If Canada doesn’t appeal to a particular Clinton enthusiast, the New York Daily News published a list of countries for liberals to escape to should The Donald take the White House. Singapore was touted as the most “well rounded” expat destination, Ecuador the cheapest, Austria the safest (though they might want to re-evaluate since those numbers are from prior to the migrant crisis), and Mexico as the most “American”. Personally I would have suggested North Korea for its economic policies, or South Africa for their diversity, perhaps Somalia for their attitudes on Christianity, but as long as they get the hell out of America, I don’t care where they go.
With liberals realizing that smashing “RACIST” across their keyboards no longer wins political arguments, they are looking to find the comforting bonds of leftist enslavement elsewhere. Not even Ted Cruz elicits such a response, and he is by any measurement the most conservative candidate in the race. They are even willing to tolerate Marco Rubio’s warmongering and absolute hostility toward privacy and all manner of personal freedom.
With any other candidate, liberals will still be in America.
