It seems Canada isn’t the only country desperate Democrats are thinking of fleeing to. New figures show the number of Americans enquiring about employment in Ireland has increased 91 percent since November 8.

While the spike on the employee recruitment website Indeed.com may well represent disgruntled US citizens looking for a Trump-free existence, it could also be a result of the estimated 50,000 undocumented Irish currently living stateside.

It’s no secret that President-elect Donald Trump is not a fan of illegal immigrants, Mexicans or otherwise, and his promise to deport 3 million “illegals” has many Irish overstaying their visas worried.

In 2012, President Barack Obama bypassed congressional authorization through executive order to allow undocumented immigrants who were brought to the US as children to be protected from deportation and enjoy the benefits that residents with legal status have.

One of Trump’s many promises on the campaign trail was to overturn all of Obama’s executive orders.
