As always, disclaimer that I’m not a US citizen.

You usually see quite a few people mentioning leaving the country if Trump would get elected, but how realistic are those plans?

Not to say it’s not justified with the prospect of Project 2025 (see the other thread), but seems like a huge life change that is probably not possible for most of the people.

    I doubt it. The EU as a whole, without the UK, lacks force projection capabilities. It’s one thing to string a supply line overland through the continent. It is a whole different thing to string supply lines across an entire ocean. Without massive military spending, which is historically deeply unpopular in the EU, I don’t see them invading any time soon, and THAT assumes the political will to even consider that as an option exists in the first place.
