Newbie here, Famous in Thailand

Why are you so interested in US politics when you can't or won't even live here? You obviously have nothing to contribute therefore even less to say.

It sounds like you need to educate yourself about American expats.

It looks like you need to educate yourself regarding which countries you want to live in.

I have been doing extensive research. Maybe you should do so instead. There are over a million American expats in Mexico and many of them are illegals but the Mexican government doesn't really care.

They are wealthy.

Most aren't. Some are living on 600 dollar social security checks.

They are laid back...good for them.
That also puts them above middle class as my Columbian co-worker told me.
My relatives only use private doctors.

Hi there,
I'm Jingthing.
I decided to take my political stuff over here to a U.S. based forum.
I'm an American that has lived in Thailand for over 10 years and am now considering moving to Colombia or Mexico.
My political background is liberal, center left coastal (east and west), but hardly a coastal elite.
I support full equal civil rights for all minorities, universal health care, and also a strong defense (as opposed to a strong offense).
I support the existence and defense of Israel while opposing the right wing government.
I think "trump" is an existential threat to the future of American democracy. Even though Mueller couldn't prove it because "trump" obstructed justice I think the evidence is clear that "trump" is compromised by Russia.

I've known lots of me. What are you running from?

There's an old quip about Americans in Mexico: There are two kinds of Americans in Mexico; those who aren't wanted back home, and those who are.

Might I suggest Venezuela.

You might but it's a very stupid suggestion. I like places where you can live better, not worse.

You must be very wealthy.

Au contraire, Senor.

I have relatives down there.
If you want to live well, you need to be very wealthy or very laid back and have low standards.

Incorrect. If you want to live exactly as in the U.S. it is more expensive. If you adjust to local conditions, it is much less expensive but still a high quality of life is possible for much less than most places in the U.S.

And you don’t leave your town.
I have few needs and would be happy there except for the poor health care system.

Health care is a big concern anywhere.
In Colombia legal foreign residents can buy into their national health care program for a very small monthly fee. It includes medical, dental, and meds. However there are long waits to see specialists or procedures. So if you're younger and healthy enough you can supplement with add on private cover or just pay retail which is massively less costly than the US and comparably quality. The Colombian health care system is rated higher than the US. Maybe trump should fix that. Don't hold your breath! He's a demagogue that doesn't care about the people.

The government is trying to kick out the white people. Sound familiar?

What are your information sources for your research? It is possible that you are like most Liberals who have a foregone conclusion based on your personal feelings about Donald Trump and then proceed to "research" sources that feed your foregone conclusion.
