Google Searches For 'President Impeachment', 'Canada Immigration', 'Nuclear Shelter' Skyrocket After Trump's Victory

As people celebrate Trump's victory in the United States (and many come to terms with it), the search trend on Google illustrates what's going on in many's minds. Searches for "how to impeach a president", for instance, have gone up 4,850 percent. Similarly, searches for "how to move to Canada", "are people moving to Canada", "list of people moving to Canada", "immigrate to Canada", "list of people moving to Canada if Trump wins" and "where to move if Trump wins" were also very popular, toot. Amid all of this, searches for "nuclear shelter" have skyrocketed as well.

Deja vu. In the aftermath of Brexit, Brits had shown a lot of interest in making Google searches about Irish passport, meaning of EU, and why it all happened.

I'll give Trump a week, ten days at most, before he does something actionable. 48 hours, tops, before he says something actionable, while his Press Secretary visibly being restrained by Secret Service agents, as he tries to physically stop Trump from opening his fat, loud mouth.
Make no mistake: I did not vote for Clinton, either; wouldn't have mattered how I voted, Clinton won my State anyway. But I didn't want that loudmouthed son-of-a-bitch to win, either.

Only two options

If you didn't vote for Clinton then effectively you voted for Trump whether or not he actually got your vote. Those were the only real world options on the table. There was no third option as much as many of us would like one. Hold your nose and pick one or the other. If you vote third party then you effectively have let someone else vote on your behalf. If you really didn't want Trump to win then your only option was to pick Clinton and vice-versa.
