WHAT MEDIA BIAS? USA Today Headline Asks: “If Donald Trump Wins, What Country Would You Flee to?”
Gateway Pundit ^ | September 16, 2015 | Jim Hoft

It’s hard to imagine a national news outlet like USA Today asking this question about Obama in 2008, isn’t it? That’s because it never would have happened. Even today, substitute Trump’s name with Hillary in the headline below and you’ll hear cries of sexism from the left.

Yet somehow, this is acceptable…

If Donald Trump wins, what country would you flee to?

This might be one solution to the nation’s immigration problem: Donald Trump haters on Twitter say they will flee the country if he becomes president.

In our favorite social media analysis so far this year, the digital analytics firm Luminoso scoured 4.5 million Trump-related tweets from Aug. 7 through Sept. 9 and found about 4% of them were people promising to leave the country if Trump wins the White House.

Here are the top destinations in those 200,000 “intent to move” tweets:

Mexico: 75,000 General: 69,000 (“I’m moving if Trump is elected” but no location specified) Canada: 25,000 United Kingdom: 11,000 Australia: 6,000 Alaska: 5,800 France: 2,000 Hawaii: 1,500 Jamaica: 1,200 Ireland: 1,100 Sweden: 1,000 Brazil: 1,000 Certainly the folks moving to Hawaii and Alaska may be surprised to arrive and discover that Trump is still their president because those places are actually part of the United States.

Here’s a screen capture in case USA Today decides to delete this:

Our media is as corrupt as the Democratic Party and is working in collusion with them.

Well, I hope the ILLEGALS flee back to Mexico. That would save us a lot of money when Trump wins.

They should probably overdose on their drug of choice, skip moving to another country, and go straight to hell permanently.

They should be given no chance of ever voting in the USA ever again.

If they're dead, they'll still vote Democrat.

On the bright side, The Great Wall of Trump will make it much harder to get back in, after they realize the mistake...

Karl Marx told his followers to take over the media.

And here we are. :)

The only time we see this Democrat rag is at hotels when we are traveling. We resent having to pay for this “free” newspaper in the cost of our suite, when there is nothing newsworthy in it.

exactly - we’d be a LOT better off if they’d “flee”.
Maybe they can set up their own country based on their ideology.

Geography and history aren't taught in some schools.

Once some organization surveyed residents in every state and just asked one question: What is your state's capital city? Some guessed — say, Philadelphia for Pennsylvania — but a huge percentage had no idea. Only a handful of people in each state knew the right answer.

Oh, and one guy asked, “what's a capital city? “ LOL

From another board:

“The question should be: When Trump gets elected what country will Obama and Clinton run to in order to stay out of prison?”

No, this is good! I'd encourage these idiots to move when Trump wins! (Just move further than the People's Republic of Hawaii and Galt's Gulch Alaska, please!)
