    I’m not even worried about the money to me, an idiot, the problem is:

    1. Trump told Harvard to eliminate DEI positions
    2. Trump admin scrubs diversity and DEI programs from public schools
    3. Trump tries to eliminate foreign Harvard enrollment
    4. Trump tries to dictate History lessons including history.

    Will Trump try to eliminate foreign or non-citizen enrollment in public schools? I know people think I am over-cautious here but My wife is a green card holder, what sorta prejudice does this open us up too?

      That’s not over cautious. This will happen soon. I think most Americans (see: white) are relatively safe right now, but immigrants (authorized or not) are clearly targets that they are attacking right now. Get ready to protect your family now.

      Really hope you and your wife make it through this okay. We’re all gonna need to help each other.

        Actually we are cutting our losses and moving back to her home country. We’d stay and tough it out if we didn’t have a kid. But it’s hard decision and struggle with Trump‘s idiotic domestic policy, along with skyrocketing cost-of-living and completely unrealistic prices on health insurance.

        It’s just too much all at the same time for us to stay
