"I feel like I've lost my country": Americans who oppose Trump are now looking for the exits
Briefly

In the wake of Donald Trump’s presidency, a growing number of Americans, like historians Marci Shore and Timothy Snyder, are opting to leave the country. They express feelings of heartbreak and disillusionment over their fellow citizens' choice to support Trump's reelection. Immigration consultants and lawyers have seen a significant rise in inquiries from those seeking to move abroad, reflecting a deep-seated belief among some that the country has become irreparable. While some hope for change, others have made the decision to leave for good, seeking a better future elsewhere.
