Real Talk. Are we all royally f***ed?
I mean, what does this mean for the LGBTGQ community? Or is it just a waiting game?
Being Lesbian AND Trans... I am just... I am scared. I mean does this mean the end of all of what America IS?!
Can he really reverse EVERYTHING people have fought and even DIED for?!
I think that the fact that the KKK and the Russian Government both endorsed his win last night and expressed their happiness speaks for itself.

Where can I go, to track very closely, Trump's movements?
I want to stay here and sweat this out, but if it becomes apparent that we will no longer be supported nationally, state-wide, and at the local level, and we are in danger, I'm bailing out with my passport/visa/savings. I've got friends overseas researching for me what I need to do to secure my place there. From there, I can see about helping from the international front to restore some semblance of order if violence has broken out.
If you can, get your passport NOW if you don't have one, pick a country you want to go to, and then go to your local or regional application center for the visa you will need for entry. Pay up the extra money for a long-term visa, and be sure to find out about the country's entry/re-entry requirements (will you have to vacation for two months out of the desired country at a time?). Another thing to do is research your asylum/refugee options.
