| The current affairs of this nation make me troubled. I desire distance in remote and untroubled lands.

| I woke up and looked at the news. My reaction was of surprise, amusement and terror.

| Whatever. Celebrate that both didn't get elected. The markets will shrug this off.
I might be going to the US in March as well, unless the US closes its borders, but that's not been suggested.

| Honestly, I think that people are completely overreacting to this whole situation. I have a feeling that Trump's radical rhetoric was just a stunt to get the conservative right all frenzied up and strengthen his support there(which obviously worked).
Think about it - if you're an uneducated farmer living in Nebraska(not trying to stereotype conservatives, but I'm confident that a large segment of them fall within this archetype), what promise is going to be more appealing to you - cancelling some trade agreement you've never heard of, and whose effects you don't know, or "stopping those illegals from stealing our jobs!"? Obviously the latter.
And most of his "extreme" promises aren't even that extreme, in my view. A wall with Mexico? Yes, it sounds silly, but I'm pretty sure that the US-Mexico border is already fortified like a wartime frontline anyway. His other extreme promises will likely just be forgotten. Deporting/Screening Muslims? Just flat out won't happen, I'm pretty sure it would break several discrimination laws, and both Trump and the GOP know this.
Just my opinion on things. I don't live in the US, but that's how the situation looks like to me.

| Not concerned about his implausible campaign promises or the markets. That's just a show of unconfidence with the surprising outcome.
What concerns me is his utterly deplorable temperament, disregard for facts or rigor, and his stance on issues of science, foreign policy, and immigration.
Far as I feel about it, we elected a nightmare.

| Watsisname, I agree. I said, Antarctica seems like a good place to move now because with Trump's stance on climate change, Antarctica might become a green pasture soon (over exaggerating). Also, his foreign policy is crap and he only cares about money. I wonder what his stance is on NASA funding
