How does your autism limit your emigration options? I think there is a good possibility that a Trump presidency would wreck a lot of scientific facilities, though we don't know for sure. In any case, I hope you don't give up and keep trying for your dream.

A lot of countries discriminate against prospective immigrants based on disability. Autism gets caught up in that. It was just devastating finding out how many countries are like this. Quite a few, even supposedly progressive countries, do it.
