Typical of Nigerians who have mentally checked out of Nigeria, but are surprised that Trump has supporters in Nigeria. Go and tell the victims of continuous Islamist attacks in Northern Nigeria that they have an "immature view of Christianity".

The good thing is that as long as Trump is alive and kicking, he is gonna win the election as I don't see a good replacement from the Democrats and certainly not Harris or Michelle as one FT commentator opined.

There it is. This illogical support of a demagogue like Trump always boils down to some immature view of Christianity.
The rest of your post made little sense. I'm not arguing this with you. Y[b]our arguments have been no difference than the ones, Basilico and Bemeruca constantly make.[/b] Check out my past replies to them.

I studied Math in University. Please take out that "Learn Mathematics" from your signature. You're logic is terrible. You don't deserve to represent Math.

Hi...sorry been quite busy but I do login to nairaland though.

I knew there was no way she would have won... Over 70 percent of independent said the country was on the wrong track. There was no way they'd overwhelmingly vote for the administration that kept it that way.
I've always felt that her popularity or surge is media-manufactured.
Trump was impressive though... He exceeded expectations. Gotta give it to the Teflon Don!

raumdeuter:


There is no negativity about Trump its all media manufactured

The Americans who lived under Trump want 4 more years of those prosperous years

If it doesn't work out, they vote another person

No sky is falling in Gods own country, Its actually a beautiful day in America

People on this thread saying there may not be a 2028 because of a Trump presidency.

Like they haven't literally already seen one. All the dooming and glooming is so damn performative. You don't have to imagine what a Trump presidency would be like, it has happened before.

I don't know why people can't just be adults and behave like normal people.

BREAKING!

Per DOJ policy that prohibits the prosecution of a sitting president, it is expected that Special Counsel Jack Smith would withdraw the federal criminal cases against Trump, and his office would be winding down operations as from January 20..

So, in theory and practice, the only on-going criminal matter against Trump, as from January, could be the Fulton county, Georgia, election interference case against him

Exactly what Trump was looking for and it's been handed to him.

basilico:


How many times I been vilified here .
Trump won because they were not able to manufacture votes for her.
He won because he threatened those that would commit electoral fraud that they would have their day of reckoning.
He said he likely wins the popular vote which suggests that there has been a lot of cheating and fraud in previous elections.Im waiting to see Kamala vote totals.
As for now media is totally discredited beyond redemption.

Donald Trump won Starr County, which is located along the Texas-Mexico border by 16points
Trump lost the county to Hillary Clinton by 60 percentage points in 2016.
Starr County had not voted for a Republican in a presidential election since 1896.

Kamala Harris called and congratute Trump. That's what responsible adults do in a democracy. Unlike Trump, a charlatan who throws his toys out of the pram if things don't go his way.

While I do agree that the GOP openly endorse racism, it is important we realise that humans are tribal. The belief that everyone likes each other especially persons outside their kith is misplaced and does not exist in the real world. Two, as odd as it might sound to you, the majority of black African countries are sh!thole in nature. It hurts, yes, but it is a fact. There are more poor and dysfunctional countries in sub-Saharan Africa than elsewhere on the planet. While the US is a racially diverse society, instituting a racial-based immigration policy is not a new phenomenon. Many countries do it. A notable example is Singapore.

Humans are tribal.


The reason I brought up that stat is because of a recent tweet where someone admonished Nigerians in Nigeria or even in the US for supporting the GOP. One probable policy of Trump he mentioned is that citizenship by birth will end. This got me wondering - how does citizenship by birth in the US affect the ordinary Nigerian? The Nigerians who obtain such are in the top 10% of the entire population. So its cessation has nothing to do with the everyday Nigerian. One thing I have noticed in this election is how so-called elite Nigerians are afraid of a man whose policies restrict them from accessing the US. They are afraid that options to domicile outside their dominant environment which they could not build to functioning levels are reducing. It is why they support affirmative action, meant for native African Americans, because they as black Africans, including second and now third-generation, benefit disproportionately from the policies.

Meanwhile, Christians in Nigeria especially Northern Nigeria would rather support Trump who openly called out the continuous butchering of Christians in the country. It was the GOP evangelical wing who lobbied for Nigeria to be listed amongst countries where religious persecution thrives. Here is the stat: Christians are slaughtered in Nigeria than anywhere else on the earth. Yes, more Christians have been killed in the black most populous country than in China and North Korea combined. https://www.persecution.org/2023/07/11/reconsidering-nigerias-removal-from-the-cpc-list/



As stated above, it is mere semantics because if these Nigerians, both naturalised or not and/or living in the US or Nigeria, believe that "Democrats are less "racist", we should have seen a high rate of visa approvals since such will inevitably increase the black population in the US. However, the approval rates have been abysmal with or without Trump. It is a bipartisan policy. Remember that other African countries also had visa refusals aside from Nigeria.
