Donald Trump is now the 45th president to be elected. Yep you just read that correctly. The sexist, racist bigot is now in charge of one of the most influential countries in the world.
The question that I want Americans to answer is how could they back track so much? They had just elected their first black president, for two terms, and now they have elected the most misinformed politician we've ever seen.
I thing that confuses me the most is how could any woman vote for Trump after he made sexist comments such as 'grab her by the pussy'. He responded when this was leaked by saying it was locker room banter. This isn't the case, it's disrespect to all females, the fact that he thinks it's okay to treat females in this manner is disgusting. The young girls of America now have this man as a leader and role model.
Of course in the run up to the vote Trump said some outrageous things, such as building a wall on the border of Mexico, to appeal to the radicals to secure these votes. I don't believe he will act on any of these things but the issue with Trump are his underlying beliefs and his lack of political knowledge. This man has control of nuclear weapons. This man was supported by Putin. When it was announced that Trump had been victorious in Russian parliament there was an outbreak of applause. Jim Pence, the soon to be Vice President, believes homosexuality can be cured. Is a man appointing someone like this to be his number 2 equipped to be President? I think not. How did he win? Obviously Hillary Clinton isn't the perfect candidate, she had made mistakes, but she has 40 years political experience, she would've had a former president at her side and it would have progressed America with female empowerment.
Now the vote has been cast. We are stuck with him for 4 years. I am interested with how he deals with the role; how will he work with Theresa May and the Queen, will his relationship with Putin function or deteriorate and how he will deal with the fundamental issues surrounding modern day America? I suppose we will find out.
