I don't know. I'm the only American-born scientist in my research lab (though not only US citizen), but is that really uncommon in tech? So maybe my situation is different? Living next to UCLA probably doesn't make it easier to mix with Trump supporters. When I was in China a few months before...well, expats aren't exactly known for being xenophobic white people.

Characterizing Trump supporters as "xenophobic white people" probably doesn't make it easier to mix with them either.

You may know Trump supporters who just don't want to fight about it.

In LA county, Clinton got 60+% of the vote, I don't know many here (just moved from Beijing to LA in August), but they were all more apprehensive than me about the election results. I honestly think I've never met a trump supporter in real life, how many immigrants (many of the people I know) were enthusiastic about Trump anyways?

Abroad is the last place to meet a republican (at least outside of the high earning senior manager demographic), let alone a trump supporter. Ya, they just might not be talking about it, but it is a very self selective bunch of people that are going to be basically migrant workers in another country, they won't be anti immigrant since that would be too hypocrititical.
