   Speaking polarization and US politics... yesterday I met a lesbian woman   
   from Georgia who left the US for spain due to not liking the political   
   atmosphere there.   
      
   I find it fascinating that you so dislike the political and polarized   
   atmosphere in your country, that you decide to leave. Well, 1 point for   
   Trump I guess, because this democrat has at least a 7 hour drive to the   
   closest american embassy so doubt she will vote this autumn.   
      
   Oh, and for regular readers of this group, I can behave sometimes... so we   
   did have a nice discussion on cultural differences between europe and the   
   US. ;)
