Tom is not advocating that people should be kicked out of the country, but if they don't like it, they can exercise their OPTION to leave on their own free will. I'm an old guy and not into rap music, but over the last 4 or 5 years, Tom's music has really connected with me because of his largely pro, traditional values of Americana. "Goodbye Joe" is a good country flavored tune, similar to "End of the World" from 2023.
I think we're all fine with people who disagree. What I'm not done with is people who don't just disagree, but they want to change the foundation of the country into something it's not. Suppressing speech, taking our rights, etc etc etc. Stay here and be part of the country, but if you want something different, go somewhere different.
Well said, that's exactly how I feel. Im watching the day after... yay! America has spoken loud and clear... no more woke weirdness and incompetence... Trump is # 47 We All Win!
“Don’t ya’ll find it strange that now that he’s won they’re not calling him a threat to democracy, they’re not calling him a fascist,” he said. “I mean, damn, on Monday they was calling him that.

Everyone talks about him being from Canada. Isn't he the text book American? He's an immigrant that gained citizenship and loves his country. God bless Tom MacDonald!
Christ did sit with prostitutes and sinners but, he didn't affirm their sin and tell them that they were good people in their sin. He called them to repentance. If you don't believe in Liberty and Justice, then you are free to find something that fits your notion of a country. Burning the flag is not freedom of speech. It is an action of treason.
Yes. Can we just make it a class A felony already. Freedom of expression has bounds. It's a terror attack IMO. Can't burn the great USD, So why tf can burn our symbol of our country's pride??? Great there was somewhat sarcasm but it is great.
Hello Britt. Yes, Jesus did sit down to dine with beggars and prostitutes. But he also took up a rod and chased the moneylenders out of the Temple. There is a time for humility and a time for action. The trick is to know the difference.

I appreciate your thoughts. They said, "If you got something to say, then I'm right here, Thank God for the freedom of speech" - in other words, say what you want. You've got freedom to do that, and I support that. Their thoughts on leave, were, "We love our land, if you ain't fans, buddy, we'll help you pack your bags... If liberty and justice aren't enough to believe in..."you're free to go." So, yes, you can say what you want, and I'll fight for your right to say it, (Tom and Adam have a song that says, "I believe in free speech for morons too"), but if you want out, we won't stop you, and we won't miss you ("don't let the big door hit ya where the good Lord split ya").
Tom had to take the test in order to become an American citizen. He has dual citizenship between America, which he truly loves and where he now lives, and Canada, his place of birth. I feel he has earned the right to say what he says about going elsewhere because as an outsider he has seen and heard the negatives being on display by our "citizens"... yet those same people do absolutely nothing to try to improve things. Becoming an American citizen was a lifelong dream according to Tom.. He had to struggle and work hard to get here, and that made him appreciate American freedom even more.
Tom and Nova been here for over a decade, Tom obtained dual citizenship and will raise their family here. Not to mention they have given hundreds of thousand dollars to our veterans, which is far more than most American-born people have. Goodbye Joe!!!
Both Nova and Tom born in Canada. Tom born Mission BC and moved to Edmonton when young. Met Nova that was throwing a rap show and they became friends for years. Got together 2017.

I'm sorry you didn't understand any part of this song. If we don't get a strong President we won't even recognize the US in 4 years...life will be very hard!
I agree 100% with you on the "you don't like it you should leave" statement and about having those who disagree with you in your life to be able to see both sides. Being educated on all sides of the issue is a loss art.
Yeah he’s Canadian but hes got duel citizenship I believe now. And he’s more American than a good majority of the ppl here. Both Nova and Tom are Canadian originally.
I’m 50 and when I was a kid there was Democrats and there was Republicans but nobody said that they hated America. At the very least we were all still. Americans! That doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.
I completely agree with the song's love it or leave it statement. You can disagree with how things are done, you can strive to change things BUT you have to at least agree on the foundation level of loving America. If you can't love our nation, hit the road Jack. Move to the nation that is a closer match to what you consider to be utopia.
I think it’s important to understand who he is telling to leave if they don’t like it - the ones who have been advocating taking our free speech and guns away, what our country was built on, the first and second most important right we came up with. THOSE people who want to change this country into a communistic regime with conditional rights and freedoms. THEY can kindly get on out of here. That’s not about freedom of speech, that’s about fighting for our freedom, literally.
People don't even know how DIFFICULT it is to legally immigrate TO anotber country. If you DON'T have a way to self sustain, you aren't getting in. Period.
My take on “pack your bags” and telling people to go… We should be proud to be Americans and stand true to the values supporting our nation’s foundation. That includes our God-given rights our founding fathers wrote in our constitutional amendments. The expectation is that we should all respect each other, hear and respect others’ opinions, and all be free to live our lives as best suited for us as long as we are not causing harm to others. Lately, there are a LOT of people who preach tolerance and acceptance while they attack other groups and try to force the masses to adopt their fabricated doctrines and throw away all of our foundational principles. If people don’t respect what our country stands for - they can go. We will not let them destroy our country.
Yes he’s from Canada and so is Nova literally living their American dream. He’s saying “you can pack your bags” to all the meltdowns that happened when Trump won last time. They said they were leaving sooo “you can can pack your bags” who’s stopping you essentially if you want to go then go 🤷♀️ not to mention people are always telling him to go back to Canada. I’m pretty sure he pays more taxes than most people make in their life
If people support censoring, investigating, prosecuting, and jailing others for opinions, they can leave. That is not just "thinking the same." That is fundamental to our country. I don't support jailing them or censoring them, but they would be happier elsewhere. Also, I help my wife study for that test. The questions are basic, and everybody should be able to answer them. If you really believe you can't pass the test, I highly recommend taking it until you can. It breaks my heart when people say they couldn't pass the citizenship test.
Saying "you're free to leave" isn't the same thing as telling someone to leave. Over the last approximately 9 years, plenty of people have said they will leave the country if Blonald Blumpf wins. Let's see how many of them keep their word.
From a 22+ year American war veteran, Tom MacDonald is a true American and patriot. If you disagree, ok???? I'm certain that you've done what you could to elevate our country... Aloha.
I watched an interview with a young person who opened with "I HATE America." The interviewer asked them if they planned to leave the country, and the reply was No. The interviewer the remarked that the USA is such a great country that even the people who hate it refuse to leave. Even haters are free to stay or go. While the song may urge them to go, they still have a choice.
Theres a difference in not loving something or disagreeing politically compared to wanting to abolish the foundations of the country. Someone arguing free speech needs to end needs to go.
The people who come here and take the test love America. The song says if you hate America leave not if you disagree with a policy or something. Basically if you don't believe in liberty and justice leave. That should be a bare minimum. Because the people that don't believe in that will take your liberty and justice away the first chance they get. Also people that don't love America will be happier somewhere else. Yeah it wasn't about you have a different idea unless that idea is you hate America, freedom, etc.
There's a great story about two opposing politicians, one told the other, judging him to be an immigrant, to go back where he came from. The guy was Native American. Doh!
Living in America while simultaneously hating America is like being an adult who hates his parents, still living in their house, if you hate it so bad go find a place where you're happy and be happy there, because we love our home and don't want it fundamentally altered!
A large number of liberals said that they were going to leave this country if Trump won. So, Tom McDonald was saying that if you want to leave then leave.
The point he's making is not that a citizen can't complain. He's saying if you despise the country so much... put your money where your mouth is... and vacate.
when he's talking about pack your bags you're free to go he's talking about all the celebrities and uppity people who are complaining about the country he's telling them they're welcome to go
I agree with the sentiment of, if you don't like it leave. For a simple reason....if I hated where I lived, I would seriously consider moving. Also, for the reason that I get so tired of hearing "if so and so is elected we're leaving." but they never follow through.
Freedom of speech also allows Tom to tell them to leave, if you dont like it here. Leave. Go find out how good you actually have it here and go move to a different Country. SIMPLE
Played this song on Election day on repeat from work to the voting polls all the way home. That was about 2 hours on straight repeat. Was a Good Luck charm❤❤❤
I can tell you, without any doubt, that I would pass that test. But your point is a good one in that it's about time schools teach civics where EVERY natural born American wouldn't sweat a bead if required to take said test.
I think thats in reference to all the folks who have said they will leave the country, if Trump was elected. They said if you don't love this country, leave. I personally agree, because if they don't love it here, go where they do love the country, and stop trying to change this country.
I think when people say they are going to leave if they don’t get their way is what is being talked about. If they aren’t happy they have the freedom to leave
He doesn’t mind if you have a different opinion, but he is saying about leave the country is if you say I hate America that’s what he saying he says leave the country
8:12 Britt, I think Tom and Nova are talking about the people who outright say they hate America, and who even claim that they want to leave, but who enjoy the rights our servicemen and women fought to protect… while they also disrespect our servicemen and women and our flag. People can and should feel free to disagree (that is a blessing we have here in America that not everyone in other countries get to enjoy), but no one is forcing anyone to stay in a country they claim to hate. I come both from military stock and from immigrants. I’m proud of my Grandfather, Dad, and Aunt who served our country for 20-some years each, and I’m also proud of my Grandmother and the rest of my Colombian family members (as well as the Mexican, Spanish, and Italian ones I haven’t met) who immigrated legally and took and passed the American citizenship test… something that I, as a natural-born American citizen, am impressed at them doing! I don’t need everyone to agree with my political pov, but it hurts to see our servicemen and women disrespected and the flag I was raised to respect burned by people who loudly proclaim that they hate our country and who are happy to hang another country’s flag instead.
The line about people leaving is actually directed to the ones that have said they was going to leave if Trump was elected the first term and now this term. I love our nation being as mixed as it is thats what makes us so great❤❤❤
The line, if you don’t like it, you can leave, he’s not saying I don’t wanna hear what you have to say. He’s saying if you try to take my freedom of speech, you can leave because I’m not giving it back. I know that I did not articulate that very well, but I hope you understood what I was trying to say.
What Tom is talking about are the celebrities who have stated that if Trump wins, they will leave the country, and dissavow their citizenship. To them, I say SEE YA!
I might be late in saying this, but I think when he saying you can leave, it’s based on the celebrities and people who said they would leave if Donald Trump was elected. That’s the way I took it.
This ideal is 🎯. If they don't like this country they absolutely can leave. It's not their speech that we're telling them to leave over it's their hatred for the country that they're living in.
In my opinion he's saying if you are saying you don't like America or that you hate America then you are free to leave I'll help you pack your bags not necessarily if you have a different opinion then leave but if you're gonna say you don't like it here while you have the freedom to say that you also have the freedom to leave, why are you staying here if you don't like it. Just my opinion tho I just see the difference between having your opinion about things in America and saying you don't like or hate America I just agree if you hate America then leave
I appreciate your feedback. I was raised to respect flag and country. My ancestors are traced back to the early settlers. They were Royals and Pilgrims and many things in between. They fought in all the wars. The United States formed with the thoughts of the individual in mind. The world scoffed at such an idea, until we became the greatest there had ever been. Adhering to and amending the Constitution is what got us there. Unfortunately, there are those who say it's obsolete, even while using it to challenge its purpose. We should never be monolithic in our views, but we should at least understand the power each of us derive from the Constitution. One final note, religion was a key component for the Founders.
Also, he isn't saying "If you don't love America you have to leave", he's saying "We aren't keeping you here. Move on if it makes you happier."
... let's face it, those that live here and hate America aren't happy people for the most part.

I agree 100% with you on the "you don't like it you should leave" statement and about having those who disagree with you in your life to be able to see both sides. Being educated on all sides of the issue is a loss art.
They weren't telling people they don't have freedom of speech, they were saying if you hate this country so much your free to leave!
Yeah he’s Canadian but hes got duel citizenship I believe now. And he’s more American than a good majority of the ppl here. Both Nova and Tom are Canadian originally.
Just glad we have a chance. If you are a God fearing Christian of any sort, the other side didnt look good.
Hello Britt,
When he's talking about packing your bags and leave. He's talking about the people who say they hate America.
I’m 50 and when I was a kid there was Democrats and there was Republicans but nobody said that they hated America. At the very least we were all still. Americans! That doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.
They said they were going to leave America if Trump got elected! That's what he's talking about!
I completely agree with the song's love it or leave it statement.
You can disagree with how things are done, you can strive to change things BUT you have to at least agree on the foundation level of loving America.
If you can't love our nation, hit the road Jack. Move to the nation that is a closer match to what you consider to be utopia.
I think it’s important to understand who he is telling to leave if they don’t like it - the ones who have been advocating taking our free speech and guns away, what our country was built on, the first and second most important right we came up with. THOSE people who want to change this country into a communistic regime with conditional rights and freedoms. THEY can kindly get on out of here. That’s not about freedom of speech, that’s about fighting for our freedom, literally.
It's those that complain that if Trump wins they gonna move to another country that gets my goat. I hope they follow through if or when Trump wins.
They won't.
Some that are saying it now said the same in 2016.
People don't even know how DIFFICULT it is to legally immigrate TO anotber country.
If you DON'T have a way to self sustain, you aren't getting in. Period.
They won't, liars and cowards. Even though they know we're watching and waiting for them to pack up and leave.
The whole "you can leave" is directed towards those that want people's rights and freedoms taken away.
FYI, the HOG labeled means "Hang Over Gang" it's kind of their collective group.
My take on “pack your bags” and telling people to go…
We should be proud to be Americans and stand true to the values supporting our nation’s foundation. That includes our God-given rights our founding fathers wrote in our constitutional amendments.
The expectation is that we should all respect each other, hear and respect others’ opinions, and all be free to live our lives as best suited for us as long as we are not causing harm to others.
Lately, there are a LOT of people who preach tolerance and acceptance while they attack other groups and try to force the masses to adopt their fabricated doctrines and throw away all of our foundational principles.
If people don’t respect what our country stands for - they can go. We will not let them destroy our country.
Tom is a dual citizen, do he is both actually an American and a Canadian!!
Yes he’s from Canada and so is Nova literally living their American dream. He’s saying “you can pack your bags” to all the meltdowns that happened when Trump won last time. They said they were leaving sooo “you can can pack your bags” who’s stopping you essentially if you want to go then go 🤷♀️ not to mention people are always telling him to go back to Canada. I’m pretty sure he pays more taxes than most people make in their life
If people support censoring, investigating, prosecuting, and jailing others for opinions, they can leave. That is not just "thinking the same." That is fundamental to our country. I don't support jailing them or censoring them, but they would be happier elsewhere.
Also, I help my wife study for that test. The questions are basic, and everybody should be able to answer them. If you really believe you can't pass the test, I highly recommend taking it until you can. It breaks my heart when people say they couldn't pass the citizenship test.
Saying "you're free to leave" isn't the same thing as telling someone to leave. Over the last approximately 9 years, plenty of people have said they will leave the country if Blonald Blumpf wins. Let's see how many of them keep their word.
I get ya about telling people to live but he is refrencing the dems who say they will leave America if trump gets elected
Loved the reaction ^.^ Tom was as of 5 CST trending #1 in Country! lol
From a 22+ year American war veteran, Tom MacDonald is a true American and patriot. If you disagree, ok???? I'm certain that you've done what you could to elevate our country... Aloha.
nova is canadian , they met when they were teenagers in edmonton alberta she was holding rap shows and tom applied to be in one
I believe he's Canadian american
He gained US Citizenship slightly over a year ago?
Tom is now an Amercian citizen and he loves this country more than many people born here.
I watched an interview with a young person who opened with "I HATE America." The interviewer asked them if they planned to leave the country, and the reply was No. The interviewer the remarked that the USA is such a great country that even the people who hate it refuse to leave. Even haters are free to stay or go. While the song may urge them to go, they still have a choice.
George Carlin- "If I didn't vote for them then I have every right to complain. You put them in office not me!"
Theres a difference in not loving something or disagreeing politically compared to wanting to abolish the foundations of the country. Someone arguing free speech needs to end needs to go.
The people who come here and take the test love America. The song says if you hate America leave not if you disagree with a policy or something. Basically if you don't believe in liberty and justice leave. That should be a bare minimum. Because the people that don't believe in that will take your liberty and justice away the first chance they get. Also people that don't love America will be happier somewhere else.
Yeah it wasn't about you have a different idea unless that idea is you hate America, freedom, etc.
There's a great story about two opposing politicians, one told the other, judging him to be an immigrant, to go back where he came from. The guy was Native American. Doh!
Living in America while simultaneously hating America is like being an adult who hates his parents, still living in their house, if you hate it so bad go find a place where you're happy and be happy there, because we love our home and don't want it fundamentally altered!
You have the freedom to complain but he has the freedom to say you can leave.
Wow, “Everybody is woke, but they’re still sleeping.” For real!
A large number of liberals said that they were going to leave this country if Trump won. So, Tom McDonald was saying that if you want to leave then leave.
He's been an American citizen for over a decade already.
The point he's making is not that a citizen can't complain. He's saying if you despise the country so much... put your money where your mouth is... and vacate.
Isn't it ironic that, everyone that has gone to publicly funded schools can't pass a citizenship test, these days.
I think you should support them
..
when he's talking about pack your bags you're free to go he's talking about all the celebrities and uppity people who are complaining about the country he's telling them they're welcome to go
Nova is literally a True African/American. When she's casually talking to people her African accent comes out.
If you listened to people telling you to unalive yourself since 2020 then you would realize where the sentiment of 50% of America is coming from
I agree with the sentiment of, if you don't like it leave. For a simple reason....if I hated where I lived, I would seriously consider moving. Also, for the reason that I get so tired of hearing "if so and so is elected we're leaving." but they never follow through.
Freedom of speech also allows Tom to tell them to leave, if you dont like it here. Leave. Go find out how good you actually have it here and go move to a different Country. SIMPLE
They are American by choice. So many people don't realize what a gift they have been given to be born in the USA.
The "you can leave" thing refers to the people who hate it in America and want to burn our flags and bring hate to the people who love our country.
I don't think he's talking about people who disagree. I think he's talking about the people who actively HATE this country.
They are both from Canada, but are now citizens of the US.
Played this song on Election day on repeat from work to the voting polls all the way home. That was about 2 hours on straight repeat. Was a Good Luck charm❤❤❤
I can tell you, without any doubt, that I would pass that test. But your point is a good one in that it's about time schools teach civics where EVERY natural born American wouldn't sweat a bead if required to take said test.
I think thats in reference to all the folks who have said they will leave the country, if Trump was elected. They said if you don't love this country, leave. I personally agree, because if they don't love it here, go where they do love the country, and stop trying to change this country.
I think when people say they are going to leave if they don’t get their way is what is being talked about. If they aren’t happy they have the freedom to leave
Your absolutely right, we should listen to everyone, understand their point of view, and hopefully that will go both ways.
He doesn’t mind if you have a different opinion, but he is saying about leave the country is if you say I hate America that’s what he saying he says leave the country
8:12 Britt, I think Tom and Nova are talking about the people who outright say they hate America, and who even claim that they want to leave, but who enjoy the rights our servicemen and women fought to protect… while they also disrespect our servicemen and women and our flag. People can and should feel free to disagree (that is a blessing we have here in America that not everyone in other countries get to enjoy), but no one is forcing anyone to stay in a country they claim to hate.
I come both from military stock and from immigrants. I’m proud of my Grandfather, Dad, and Aunt who served our country for 20-some years each, and I’m also proud of my Grandmother and the rest of my Colombian family members (as well as the Mexican, Spanish, and Italian ones I haven’t met) who immigrated legally and took and passed the American citizenship test… something that I, as a natural-born American citizen, am impressed at them doing!
I don’t need everyone to agree with my political pov, but it hurts to see our servicemen and women disrespected and the flag I was raised to respect burned by people who loudly proclaim that they hate our country and who are happy to hang another country’s flag instead.
The line about people leaving is actually directed to the ones that have said they was going to leave if Trump was elected the first term and now this term. I love our nation being as mixed as it is thats what makes us so great❤❤❤
America is bigger than just a place; it's an idea. And the thing about ideas is that anyone can support them, no matter where they come from.
The line, if you don’t like it, you can leave, he’s not saying I don’t wanna hear what you have to say. He’s saying if you try to take my freedom of speech, you can leave because I’m not giving it back.
I know that I did not articulate that very well, but I hope you understood what I was trying to say.
What Tom is talking about are the celebrities who have stated that if Trump wins, they will leave the country, and dissavow their citizenship. To them, I say SEE YA!
I might be late in saying this, but I think when he saying you can leave, it’s based on the celebrities and people who said they would leave if Donald Trump was elected. That’s the way I took it.
This ideal is 🎯. If they don't like this country they absolutely can leave. It's not their speech that we're telling them to leave over it's their hatred for the country that they're living in.
Tom may have been born in Canada, but he's a USA citizen. America is the continent, not the country.
He's not talking about people with different opinions. He's taking about the ones that say they hate America.
He simply said if you don't believe in our founding beliefs, you don't have to stay.
Tom and Nova did a GREAT JOB on this one!!
In my opinion he's saying if you are saying you don't like America or that you hate America then you are free to leave I'll help you pack your bags not necessarily if you have a different opinion then leave but if you're gonna say you don't like it here while you have the freedom to say that you also have the freedom to leave, why are you staying here if you don't like it. Just my opinion tho I just see the difference between having your opinion about things in America and saying you don't like or hate America I just agree if you hate America then leave
Goodbye Kamala, na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye. Repeat please. 😊😅😂
I appreciate your feedback. I was raised to respect flag and country. My ancestors are traced back to the early settlers. They were Royals and Pilgrims and many things in between. They fought in all the wars. The United States formed with the thoughts of the individual in mind. The world scoffed at such an idea, until we became the greatest there had ever been. Adhering to and amending the Constitution is what got us there. Unfortunately, there are those who say it's obsolete, even while using it to challenge its purpose. We should never be monolithic in our views, but we should at least understand the power each of us derive from the Constitution. One final note, religion was a key component for the Founders.
Take a test? I think most of em just walk across the border lol
