Americans; If Trump wins in November, what are your plans?
Probably leave the country for a while. That’s one of the nice things about being dual citizen. I understand this doesn’t work for everybody, and there are probably other maybe better responses, but that’s my first thought.

I’ll be cutting out my tubes asap, if he wins. I’m in a red state but have an IUD, bf is in blue state. I already intend no children but haven’t made it irreversible yet. I will as after November, to put an end to the risk.
Unfortunately, it’s often not easy to do. Women have a notoriously difficult time convincing fertility doctors to sterilize them because “well what if you change your mind some time in the future?” or “well what if you eventually meet a man who wants kids?”. Yeah. Basically, your wants and desires take back-seat to some hypothetical future you, or some hypothetical future man’s wants and desires. Unfortunately, even some of my blue state friends have faced major road blocks in this quest. It’s a disease that’s only going to get worse if the Republicans take over the executive. :(

I’m a trans woman and I honestly think that I very well may end up having to hide myself in my parents attic or something.
Nothing like 2016.
Lemmy, Trump live in your mind rent free.
You’re right, it’s even more apparent it’ll be a disaster for the planet.
I mean, I get it. If he were to win again things would get much worse. But I still feel like Republicans are running the country right now anyway, and things are only very slightly better than they were under Trump. Ok, some environmental things were rolled back from Trump policies. There was some student debt relief. But all the big things they’re telling me to be scared for if he wins again, I’m already scared about right now. The Supreme Court corruption, the influence of money in politics, Russian interference, sympathy toward Israeli genocide–those things are doing as much damage as Trump could, and Democrats are ignoring it all!
