I am torn about this. My wife and I have (somewhat) jokingly talked about fleeing to New Zealand if Trump is elected and the US continues its trajectory towards fucking terrifying.
But the more I think about it, the less it makes sense. For better or worse, if the US falls to right-wing authoritarianism, I don't think anywhere in the world will be safe.
Staying to fight in any way one can may be the better option, for many, though that may depend on privilege/vulnerability.
