Have you ever seriously thought about leaving the country? [View all]

If Donald Trump is the President?

We always hear a few celebrities say that if so-and-so wins the next election, they will leave the country. It happens almost every election.

If you were to move to another country, where would you go? Canada? Mexico? Costa Rica? New Zealand?

Or would you stay in place and fight to defend America?
