I was a Democrat for a majority of my adult life. After being disappointed for more times than I could count I went Independent about 10 years ago. I came to the realization that neither party is going to be right every time. I didn't want to be another lemming blindly going with the party line. I now choose my candidate based on who is donating to there campaign. If big Pharma, big Food, Military industrial complex, Tech giants, Industrial giants and Hollywood Elites are all donating to the same party I'm voting for the other guy. They only have there own interests in mind not the people and they want a party that will support their interests.

Yes. When the power hungry deep state, uses their influence in schools, television sitcoms, movies, news media, etc. to destroy a man that promotes the US CONSTITUTION ...individual Freedom, healthier food, less government oversight into your personal life. It will upset the insane democratic communist party. In 2020...from his basement...Joe Biden managed to motivate 15 million more voters to the polls than any other presidential race in history. Total count for 2024 was back to normal. I'm astounded that the democratic Communists didn't come up with another 6 million ballots this year so a woman that can't think for herself , could become leader of the free world As for party affiliations. Clintons, Bushes, Biden, and Obama ALL belonged to the uni-party...along with their opponents. Obama was the most devisive. And showed his hatred for individual freedom.

There are studies out there showing that Republicans are open to dating a Democrat. When the question was reversed the vast majority of the Democrat respondents said that was a deal breaker. I don’t know any Republicans that would give up on their country ad quickly as the lady has. I’m not saying there are no Republicans that don’t leave their country. I just have never met them. I work in nursing field. Most of the nurses I’ve met are Democrats. You being in Dumaguete see the Retirement refugees. Maybe they are telling you what you want to hear in order to be more liked? Over hear in the rat race of life most Republicans don’t say things like the left! I respect your opinion unlike many I’ve encountered on the left who are intolerant towards people on the right. The economy and the open borders lost the election for the Democrats. Many people wanted a change. I’m a Hispanic college educated with the earned benefit of the GI Bill. Served my country in combat in Iraq March- December 2003. I’ve been to several different continents and countries and I’m grateful I was born here in the United States of America.

If only they saw both sides of the stories instead of hating. Don't come here because you hatin', come here because you lovin'.

[@Hairyskinback]

Can we convince them not to?

Red and blue let’s just all get along. Is it a splitter in my eye or a board, or is it you ?

I'm not an american. But I left Oz due to the govt there. But not due to "politics". Despite owning a house and land, and a substantial amount of assets, the immigration dept there refused to issue my wife a tourist visa!! So I went back, sold up, and moved here. As for yankees, you have all become very tribal, from an outsiders pov. It's still a great country, but there are issues, just like everywhere else. I hope the US settles down, and doesn't lose its way!

I lived in Germany off Base on the economy from 2005-2014. Initially it was very difficult adjusting due to the lack of conveniences, logistical support, then language barrier and I really regretted moving but was under contract with few job prospects back in Texas. In time I ended up really enjoying it when I met a few people and started getting out more after getting over the initial financial hurtles. Honestly had no intention of coming back but work dried up plus my parents were getting older so left. The main problem I see here is that the cost of living has skyrocketed so much since COVID that it has truly hurt people. No matter how some try to spin things, people can actually see and feel the reality on the ground. You are fortunate to have been out of the country the past 6 years as I was during the “financial crisis” in 2008/2009.

Lordy guys the President doesn't effect your lives that much at all to be this upset. Wait 4 years then you can get pissed off all over again lol.

Moving to PH because of politics is a little shortsighted and overreactive. Around 50% of the people are happy/unhappy after every election. As you say, take emotion out of it. True, America is not the country I knew 50 years ago, but I did not move here for that reason.

I hope people will stop dividing themselves regardless of their political affiliations, and due to any other differences. USA is still a good country to live in, freedom and democracy is not given once and for ever, it needs to be cherished and protected. We will be ok.

[@young749Au]

I figured the US is sunk regardless of who won the election. I sleep a lot better at night being out of her. Better past and future life living in the Philippines.

I’m considering spending my retirement years in a country other than the U.S. However, I am not motivated by political considerations. I want personal freedom and a low cost of living.

I'm a classic, JFK democrat. The democrats these days have gone too far to the left. I voted for Trump cause I live in California. There's enough to see what the left democrats have done here to make you vote the other way. Love your videos....Be happy and be healthy brother, God bless!!..... When someone tells you 4+4=10, tell 'em oh well, have a good day and good luck!!

The American dream today can be found in the Philippines.

[@edbrookes5255]

Hope people don't come due to their canidate may have lost. Sounds like it's based on anger. That is the last type of people we need here when you consider things move much slower here in all industries.

[@davidkelly9833]

Your right Mark about oversaturation of all things political in US. Alo of people seem to thrive on it.

[@everymanhasastory]

Thank you for watching ☺️

Considering leaving America is not the same as leaving America. There's many things we consider every day we don't do.

Why would you tell an Adult anything. If they need to be guided just on this then they have lost the brain, lol
