Now with the American
2016 Presidential election over, we are reminded again, more than ever before
that in Politics anything and I mean anything can happen. Did I get a few others
concur?
I can only imagine
Soyinka keeping to his promise and many others who said one form of “if Donald
Trump wins, I will…” Donald Trump has taken America and the whole place is
coloured ‘RED’ and his party members are popping champagne as you read this. Such
is life!
Hillary Clinton no
doubts gave Trump a good ‘run for his money’ and that of his party members, her
name has gone into the history books as one woman who almost became the first
female President in America. If only all those who sang her praises during the
campaigns truly went out en masse and voted. It’s just a repeated case of “Jonathan
will win…Jonathan will win in 2015” yet after all said and done, more than half
of all those who were chanting Jonathan’s praise either did not vote for him or
did not go out to vote at all. Politics
is so filled with interesting dynamics, intrigues and most of all, confused
people.
I almost had blood
pressure and so did many others while the votes were counted and results
released as if it was my country. No doubts, America affects every one of our
lives in one way or the other. The world stood still for this election as
nearly every country seemed to have a stake in the outcome.
Congratulations to
Trump anyway even as the world awaits your work and policies in taking America
to the next level.
I was reading some of
Trump’s comments made during the campaigns and was even more alarmed that
inspite of the so many uncouth statements and declaration from this ‘man of the
moment’ he was still loved by many. The results speak volumes and how much he
is loved. People can never be entirely trusted. When they say they love you,
think again because they just may be implying the very opposite.
Once again, politics is
an interesting world filled with confused people!
WHAT’S NEXT IN AMERICA?
Big question!
