Too much fuss about Trump

So what’s all this panic regarding Donald Trump’s victory? Last I checked, Americans did vote for the business typhoon, because I hardly doubt he rigged his way.

So what’s all this panic regarding Donald Trump’s victory? Last I checked, Americans did vote for the business typhoon, because I hardly doubt he rigged his way. And perhaps those Americans that publicly opposed the president-elect, were actually hypocrites as well as his die heart fans and supporters. Let’s face it, Trump being the upfront and bold American that he is, represent the true nature of most Americans from the inside – and don’t tell me you are knowing this for the first time. I doubt Trump will venture into anything new. It is going to be the same old story i.e America taking control and manipulating (directly or indirectly) any state and or country it deems fit, like the true imperialist that they are. The only difference now is that, Trump actually said he would do all those things plus professed his hatred for ‘blacks’ during his political campaigns because that’s exactly what the common American wants to hear. So it’s just a calculated risk. He knew it would get to them and it did. It was undoubtedly his strength and not weakness, as most people outside America thought it to be. Obviously, he isn’t just a successful business man, but a true American as well.
I am certain countries like China, Russia, Iran and Turkey aren’t panicking as much. They could careless as to who heads America, for it has been long since they were armed and ready. They have learned to manage their affairs like it’s nobody’s business, and it really isn’t. Something the African countries are yet to figure.
Trump will definitely continue from where Obama has stopped. Take it or leave it. Or perhaps you were thinking Hillary would be better? Thinking their conniving strategy is sure to differ under her reign just because she’s a woman president? Being a woman it’s only half of who she is. The other half is that she’s an American. And trust me when I say this, you do not want to underestimate the Americans. So long as Israel exists, the American style will never cease to be. Trump’s victory will perhaps serve as a wakeup call to most African countries, including Nigeria, I hope. It will go a long way in reminding the ‘blacks’ how bad they have misplaced their priorities and how they have allowed themselves to be ridiculed and used in ways that have belittle whatever it is they might think they have accomplished since their independence. So if it takes people like Trump to remind Africans that they are equally responsible for their current state of under-development (courtesy of their greedy political elites) whom besides squandering huge amount of money and investing it in foreign countries (as Trump rightly said), then so be it. And perhaps, when the huge numbers of our Nigerian immigrants are finally home for good, they will share some of the success stories they manage to learn over there. It wouldn’t hurt to render a helping hand to the community you claim to be your origin. And the timing is perfect, we are in recession.
Past American leaders were simply wolves in sheep’s clothing. So it’s good to have someone like Donald Trump for a change. Obviously, the change fever is everywhere.
