I'd have to peace out into the hills or something. I couldn't bare to watch it all end. I'd flat out lie to my kids, lol, and tell them that the world out there still was as it was...and all was right in 'murrica.

Yup..which, depending on how long this fascist trend endures....is either a good thing, or a very unfortunate instance of when people's better nature puts them in the eventual victims column of history.
When they came for the mexicans, I did nothing..because I was not a mexican.
IMO, trumpian fascisms 15 minutes of fame will soon be over, at least in this country. It's easier to justify endurance and obstruction, at this point. Hell, the trumpsters are the biggest victims in all of this, it makes little sense to beat them..if what you want to do is stop what the administration is trying to do.
They're not doing that, they have no power or authoroity or voice in this administration.... they're just little pissants with hateful hearts and signage. Useful idiots who already made the entirety of their contribution to trumps cause.
That's a big part of the difference between the left and right. You consider people who aren't actually American citizens to be, well, fellow citizens.
