Hi

Mayor
HI all.

I am a refugee from the USMB.

Just killing a little time here as I finalize my plans to retire out of the country. The 8 months of pay without needing to work that President Musk gave me is helping to move that process along nicely.

Got a friend that worked for FEMA. He retired before 1/20/2025. Got another friend who works for USPS that's retiring on 4/30. Life's too short to work for [Unwelcome language removed] bosses.

A handful of race-baiting, Jew-baiting, meme posting, personal insult slinging cons left here for USMB. That's why they left Political Jack. USMBcons have no consequences for that.

It was probably worth it to get you off the government tit.

I provided a service and was paid for it, like any other job.

And now I get paid to do nothing till Sept 30, very efficient!

but hey, that day I will start to receive my 2nd federal pension.

Life is good!

Might I ask what country did you choose?

Panama.

Beautiful beaches, amazing rain forest, thriving metropolitan area, enough Veterans there that there is an active VSO and the local hospitals take TriCare.

One of my bucket list items is to wake up watching the sunrise over the Caribbean, eating lunch at 3700 feet in the rainforest and watching the sunset over the Pacific while drinking a Mojito.

The local are some of the friendliest in the world and the cost of living is about 60% of what it is here to maintain the same lifestyle.

After 5 years there we will get our Panamanian passport so we can travel on it instead of the US on as by then the US one may not be welcome many places.

Indeed. Started planning it in early 2023 when it became apparent we as a country were content with Trump vs Biden II.

The initial plan was to wait till 2029, but circumstances have moved up the timeline.

So you left the country for political reasons? Just how would a Trump 2.0 adversely effect you personally that you would have to run away?

I have not left the country yet, but will by the end of the year.

And you misread my comment. It is not about Trump, it is about the fact that Trump vs Biden II was the best we could do in this country for the 2nd straight election.

It is also about the fact that as a country we are not only ok with, but like, being divided down the middle almost every issue.

We were going to leave no matter who won the election. I dislike Biden every bit as much as I do Trump. Both men had proven they were not fit to be POTUS but our lazy [Unwelcome language removed] country was more than happy to choose between them again. That is not a country I want to live in any longer.

The fastest growing group becoming Ex-Pats are Veterans, many because of this division in the country. According to one Army Vet whose Blog I follow there are over 20,000 US Vets livings in Dominica Republic alone. Panama has enough Vets there to have an active VSO and the hospitals take TriCare.

With our TSP and pensions my wife and I could have a comfortable retirement living in the US. Or we could live in Panama and have so much more.

So, while you call it "running away" I call it leaving the country to you all. This is what you want, so who am I to tell you to try and change.

As for Trump, well lets see....I am a Fed Employee and so is my wife. Her job as a VA nurse is as secure as can be, mine not as much. Thus I took Trump/Musk up on the offer of getting paid till Sept 30th without the need for working. Does not seem very efficient to me, especially since i just got the date moved to Dec 31st since I am retiring at the end of the period.

Trump's trade war will lead us into a recession and if he actually follows though on his stated plan to charge a fee to every ship made in China that enters one of our ports we will enter a 1920s style depression.

That does not even touch upon his stated goal to take over 2 sovereign countries and invade a 3rd to take away their property.

There is no comparison between Biden and Trump. Hands down Trump is better for the USA. Your dire predictions for Trump's economy are just that ..... chicken little the sky is falling. I'm glad you found a comfortable place to retire among ex-pats with a common history. Personally, I can understand why Veterans are disgusted. The more we find out about the TRUE HISTORY, the less altruistic the USA becomes. But all nations on earth run by men are not altruistic. So, the USA can just join the club passed down through the eons.

They are the two worst presidents in the history of our country. Hands down, not even close.

It is the division in the country that is the common thread among the ones I interact with via the web.

But thanks, I am glad as well. My wife and I had been talking about doing so for 5 years or more, the final push was everyone in the country being cool with Trump vs Biden II. That is when we got serious.
