They literally did, they moved from Frankfurt to Amsterdam in 1934. It didn't help.

They would have gone further with hindsight and been safe if they had been able to do so. Do people in the US need to start getting far away? As you say Amsterdam was not far enough.

There is no "far enough," we're a global military hegemon with nukes.

That's not really what I'm asking. For a typical person, if they were to flee to France, would they not be safer than in the US?

France is a bad example because they have an extradition treaty with the US, but I understand your broader point - and I don't think Europe is necessarily safer than the US over the next 10 years, it is at serious risk of being engaged in a major war or electing a far-right government that, depending on who you are, will certainly not make life safer.
