Is anyone else thinking is withdrawing their entire portfolio until the Trump madness is done?

So, like many others I'm heavily invested in US tech stocks. And like most other US based stocks they dropped a lot recently due to the Trump madness. They dropped like 20-25%.

As of today, they are only down about 4%. I personally think the worst is yet to come, and who knows what the next wacky thing Trump will do and cause the stocks to crash again.

I'm thinking just to take the hit, and forego the profits I had a few months ago, and just sell all my US stocks and ETFs, as long as they are in profit (or close enough).

Is anyone else thinking of doing a similar thing? Or am I crazy here?

Also, where is best to put all the withdrawn funds cash? Leave it as cash? Buy cash based funds or gold based ones?

I'll likely re-invest in the US tech stocks in the future when the market has calmed down or Trump is out of power
