I do not want that for them, but it would be their decision to do what they feel they must do, if they chose to leave the country, that's fine with me, if they chose to stay and fight, that's fine with me also, but for me, I just cannot in good conscious, leave my country to the MAGAt's, nor could I leave behind the millions of Americans who will take up the fight against them.

I have no problem with those that want to leave, it's their decision and I would respect that.
I hope you can understand where I'm coming from, I hope it doesn't come down to that though.

Peace out.
