Never thought I would see a flood of Americans refugees coming to Canada to escape a tyrannical government...
I guess that's what you get when you elect a criminal with dementia as president.
- Really? People have been talking about it since the Bush administration. Until now things hadn't gotten bad enough for people to actually do it in large numbers, but people saying that if the Republicans win they'd move to Canada has been repeated so often over the decades that it became a bit of a joke.
  
  Trump 2.0 is WAY worse than any Bush.
  
  Without the crucial steps the W Bush admin took, there would be no Trump. It's not that Trump isn't worse but they are part of the same fascist movement, just further developed.
  
  We are talking people fleeing the USA for their lives. This is Trump phenomena as he is demonizing and literally going after dissenters.
  
  Bush Jr. started doing that. I recall seeing protestors who opposed the Iraq invasion being arrested for dissent. Remember Dixie Chicks? Yeah, they got cancelled for that. And, lets also not forget about the random violence against anyone remotely kinda like an Arab, to include Punjabis, Liberians, Somalians, Burmese, etc.
  I feel like waaaay too many people forgot about post 9-11 shit.
  
  Plus don't forget Bush Jr was NOT ELECTED he lost the election and became president anyway.
  
  Uh, noooo. He got 5 out of 9 votes, fair and square, and won. It was a landmark decision.
  
  Those who forget post 9-11 bullshit are doomed to repeat it. They were beating up Sikhs no fucks given.
  
  I know, but it's the "never thought" part that I'm disputing. People have been thinking of this situation for a long time.
  
  Agree - if people were thinking it before, now they are DOING.
  
  Remember when we thought Bush was bad? God I'd love to have him instead
  
  I can’t believe GWB = good old days now. My how we’ve fallen
- I mean.... There was that whole Vietnam draft thing in the 60s/70s...
- Getting close to Handmaid's Tale every day.
