I’ve been trying to convince my wife to leave since 2016. I’m 99% sure the main reason she won’t agree is because she will burst into flames if she ever admits to being wrong about anything.
When I married my wife in 2005 she told me she’d NEVER leave her home and family. Took her to Australia for the first time in 2015 and within an hour of landing she was ready to move, which we did in November 2015, right before trump 1.0. Now since last November she’s looking into Australian citizenship and says she’s never going back. Don’t give up hope!
Mostly it was moving from the Midwest to a sub-tropical beach paradise. Which I thought (but definitely didn’t say) was kinda funny, because her reason for saying she’d never move was family. But pretty much all the reasons she’s been glad we did move are related to trump and what the US has become.
Hope it works out for you. Due to certain financial outcomes, I’m pretty much stuck where I am, for better or worse. Will have to be satisfied that my teenaged daughters never had to live in trump’s America.
I think US popularity is collapsing in the US as well. I know I’m starting to hate it here.
US
popularityis collapsing - FTFY.Yup, half our population is now defending human trafficking and statutory rape.
Never in my long life have I considered leaving America, but I’m looking at options now.

What about it made her want to move?

Politics have been a convenient correlation, but I’ve been convincing my wife to move further and further north to more climate-change resilient areas
Almost like that poleward range shift is gonna affect humans just like any other animal

Sounds very american of her.
Some people like their family, friends and communities. Even non-Americans, believe it or not.
Was more refering to the “burst into flames if she ever admits to being wrong about anything”
Why not get a new wife?
Just go to the wife store
In this economy?
One is plenty.
