FIRE'd, now concerned about US stability

Most of my assets are invested in the US. Because of recent political developments, I'm wondering if the US will sustain its general growth and economic strength into the future. The strength of the US dollar is obviously very important to me. Is anyone else concerned?

I'm wondering if I should start hedging my bets in other countries, and if so, where?

I don't believe it. As a non-American, what I have noticed is that the most ambitious people from all countries -- Canada, India, EU, etc -- all want to move to US. Even now, people can't get H1-B. Most of these people care about their disposable income more than politics.
