This is never true I remember it back to people saying it about Bush.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

What isn't true, specifically? I'm curious to hear what you think is "never true."

Do you think Bush helped democracy? May I remind you of the Patriot Act? Guantanamo? Black sites and kidnapping?

You seem oblivious to what Trump and crew were up to during the first go round and what the GOP has planned for 2025.

Have you uhhh, looked at the article headline? There's a pretty obvious and specific claim. That, as OP pointed out, has been claimed for many presidencies including the last time trump won.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Uhh, yes, I did. One never knows when someone posts "this" if it refers to the obvious or they had some other bs in mind.

If Trump is reelected, Americans are planning to flee in droves

So Americans aren't planning to flee in droves?

Does OP have some kind of pill or study to back this up?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

If you read the article, how were you possibly confused as to what OP was talking about?

Anyway, like OP said, people have said they were going to leave if W won, if trump won in 2016 etc. Guess what? No real surge in migration either of those times. But sure maybe THIS time they mean it.
