Of course, he is not my President; I am Australian.
However, numerous Americans have tweeted ‘he is not my President’, and protesters have filled the streets declaring the same.
If the populace voted and selected Trump as President, then who are they to question the will of the people?
In England, a divide exists between the upper classes and the workers. This class system has been longstanding in England and is still evident today.
Take Brexit, for example; the people voted to leave Europe, yet the remainers continue to complain and protest.
In the USA, who makes up the anti-Trump protestors?
Is it a class struggle where the workers support change while the elite oppose the usurper, or is it merely the influence of the media?
The press, television, and all the polls predicted a Clinton victory. It appears these polls assumed all voters were influenced by propaganda…leading to a massive backlash following Trump’s win.
Trump has emerged victorious…let’s give the man some space. He faces a significant responsibility ahead.
May I point out a notable issue – the media asserts he has never held office or served in the military. This might be a substantial reason for his selection. Being outside the establishment may make him more dependent on military high command for intelligence.
During foreign visits, the President requires translators to communicate effectively. His wife, the First Lady, speaks five languages and likely understands even more.
She, too, is a migrant in the USA and is aware of the challenges involved in starting anew in a foreign land.
In Australia, we support the underdog. Therefore, let’s give him a chance. It’s time for Americans to unite.
