That's noble, certainly, and I actually hope that a lot of reasonable people stay, in case the democracy is not yet bunked, and there is hope to at least turn it around.
But honestly there's like roughly half of USA living as idiocrats, I wouldn't want to be part of that, and I value my mental health more than watching a real-live shit-show degrading a once respectful nation. The damage Trump will do to society this time (again) is probably already too high for me to just give up this lost country, and declare it as lost cause. I'm lucky I don't have to make that decision though, but just reading abroad about Trump basically everyday is already daunting (and has global effects, like climate-change).
