Last visit in Germany in October, I was constantly asked about Trump.

Follow up, I just tell them I live in my blue bubble in Maryland. They understand

No, we're fine. Just a little practical advice for traveling abroad.

Yes, there definitely are LWNJs everywhere, not just here in the U.S. I would be very, very careful what you say in front of them because they won’t hesitate to get up in your face screaming - or worse - if they even suspect you voted for Trump. Lots of mental illness among the left. Be careful.

There’s no danger in traveling. You will probably get some demeaning looks, perhaps pity, but no one is going to attack or abuse you. They understand what happened here because it happens to them too. Many countries are struggling with disinformation and foreign interference including Moldova and others. Putin is winning, unfortunately.

So start a thread about them. This thread is about traveling abroad.

My favorite people are the europhile liberals who have never been to Europe.

Most Trump voters don't even leave the county, much less the country, apart from the rich ones, and the rich Trump voters are the ones who have already been giving Americans a bad name abroad even before they made Trump President.

+1. Just explain that you did not vote for Trump.

I traveled internationally during the first Trump administration and everything was totally normal, OP. Your tinfoil hat is showing.

America had a free and fair democratic election and a republican got more votes…and now op is on the run as an international person of mystery.

Nobody's gonna attack you, but personally I am not feeling particularly proud of being an American rn.
