    Some people have dual citizenship and may be located in another country. If you have a US citizenship, you have to pay taxes. I saw that Boris Johnson gave up his citizenship. He is from London. People move all the time. Tina Turner married a Swiss and gave up hers. She now lives in Switzerland, I think. It could have been Sweden. Maybe other people can share other names of people they know who have relocated. I hope they haven't left because of Trump.

    Buh bye, to all of those who do not love America.  
    I can't think of any situation that would make me renounce my citizenship.
