Default Would-be immigrants

I am gonna take a wild guess that we're going to see a drop off of numbers of would-be/ wanna be immigrants in the US forum for a while.

I just hope those Trump supporters can handle being great. For most it will be a new experience.

Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them. Or, in this case, thrust in their face, repeatedly and without it having been asked for.

There may be a big demand for nuclear fallout shelters also. They were real big here in the fifties and sixties during Cold War.

Still planning a move to the States as and when our DV lottery ticket comes up. My better half is now unfortunately somewhat less keen due to events overnight.

I wouldn't worry too much. Campaign promises are usually a laundry list what what they won't accomplish.
He will probably tweak the tax code to better serve the 1%, get rid of the "death tax" which again only helps the 1%. Also get rid of Obama care and replace with something to better empower and enrich the medical insurance companies.

If you win the DV lottery you'll get instant green cards. When these ****s like Trump talk about 'immigrants' they don't mean white, middle class permanent residents from Europe.
