Lucasbalo:
Not necessarily that. A lot of blacks are so dejected that they don't even care to vote. Obama's case is an abberation. It's a big surprise but we will survive this.

Well, the blacks and ethnic minorities who didn't vote have shot themselves on the foot. Trump said a lot of negative things about the ethnic minorities, the least they should have done is to turn-out in large numbers and vote Hillary.

I see Kayleigh McEnany being Trump's White House Press Secretary

Rudy Giuliani as his attorney general

Lucasbalo, how far na ? I think u say Trump nor go win. Meh. LOL.

Appleyard:



Please remind them... The truth is, the man is saying what a lot people want to hear.

You don't have to remind anyone of anything. I am a doyen in America and I have seen it all. It's very disappointing but I will still be very successful no matter who's elected. The president doesn't control my life. That's what makes America unique. There's nothing I say on nairaland that I don't say on Chicago dailies. I never hide my identity. You can elect Attilla the Hun an America president, I will still be good by all measuring scales. So , no one is mourning here.

Missy89:



Fantastic night unfolding.

You calling this fantastic night? I believe this is breathtaking, considering the level the MSM touted Clinton to win by polling her in unprecedented figures. Now, everyone can see that they lie through their noses.

Trump did and said everything humanly possible to lose this election.. And now he is about to become president elect? Just waohhh

Trump winning all the must-wins.




Stopped believing the polls since Romney VS Obama in 2012 anyway.

You have a good point. I remember when Obama won in 2008, I have a colleague at work who was crying like a baby because a black man won. Like you said, blacks are something else when it comes to self interest. Imagine all the Nigerian guys here on Travel section talking about US visa, they will see the results of their adoration for Mr Bigot. They think the visa is hard now, they should wait till he put an executive order out on issuing visa to brown and black folks. Then they will get what they are wishing for.

Pennsylvania called. Its all over

Donald Trump is actually a fantastic and superb politician.
At the beginning, they called the business man a joke until he defeated 16 professional full time politicians to clinch the Republican ticket.
They called him a racist, misogynist, bigot, unexperienced, liar,loser etc. He never gave up despite all the lies of sexual harassment and taxes. He forged on and now almost the most powerful man in the world.
Hate or like him, this man is a great politician. He can play cool and play dirty too. Even when most influential republicans denounced, rejected and fail to endorse him. He didn't care about that. Even when Clinton was using Jay-z, Beyonce, Katy Perry, he never used a mainstream celeb. Even when the media was against him, he outplayed them.
Now he has defeated one of the most influential families in US History.
Seems I will be reading a lot of books about this man.

Clean sweep for the GOP

Obama is the biggest loser tonight.

Which network called PA

Pennsylvania called. Its all over

anyone who win Pennsylvania wins the election.. Game over..
America has decided

It's over. The bigot has been elected POTUS. I don't agree with the decision of the American people, but I totally respect their right to make that decision.

We are dealing with our own Brexit issues across the pond. There is a mass movement of voters who are so pissed off with the establishment that they are willing to vote against them even to their own personal detriment.

Lucasbalo:
Which network called PA

AP

Lucasbalo:
Yes, FBI Director Comey is a registered Republican. He's a big cause of this problem interfering in an election days before the final votes .

Hmnn, politics.
How is the situation of things currently? Does she have any upper hand?

missjo:
Please Hillary, stay strong. I can't imagine what she must be feeling right now.
There's still a chance this could swing in her favour, but who would have known that the "basket of deplorables" was this extensive and relentless.

Your statements are are tacitly shrouded in euphemism even when underlined by unclad reality.

Even if Trump doesn't win as of today, he still would have succeeded in setting up a new precedent - he that speaks the reality even under the greatest form of madness and lack of maturity, tends to get more to the hearts of the people, than the more subtle, crooked, well entrenched but arrogant opponent who labelled millions of such people as "baskets if deplorables!"

How wonderful that basket is turning to be.

Vengeance is a frozen dish of beans!

ValerianSteel:
He very much is in heart though he parades himself as an independent.We all saw his true colors.

Obviously. Does Hillary still have bright chances of winning?

Not really.

Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta says her campaign will have nothing to say tonight about state of race

The Irony

Missy89:



What happened to the landslide?

Question for the gods. They made it look like America was rolling down a mudslide. Now, the reality speaks in open daylight. Like Brexit, Never underestimate the power of truth.

Election wey don finish, people don dey go house. Trump don win.

Congrats to the President elect Trump. He has a very difficult task ahead of him in a very fractured country. God help him because his doing good for America is good for all Americans. I am American first before I am democrat. You play the hands that you were dealt. He who fights and run away live to fight another day. I think Hillary should congratulate him. It's over. The hallmark of democracy is wishing your opponent well.

I'm not giving up until every race is called.

I sincerely hope Trump and his allies in Congress don't pursue a nativist agenda.

If they do so, they're going to hear it from voters in 2018 and 2020

Apointing the supreme court judges comes to mind. Yes conservative judges

exciting news of the day

Congress is safe and Supreme the court is going to be conservative

BekeeBuAgbara:

What effect does SCOTUS have in your life. Worry about your third world dwelling .

He is going to do that and that will be his greatest mistake. With his age, I even doubt if he will run for reelection in 2020.

PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD J TRUMP. Finally d deplorables win lol, once again, just like d BREXIT. haahahahahaha and d wall tumbles down for d sad demoncrats

ValerianSteel:

Buddy, the guy won fair and square. No one loathes him more than I do but we have to realize this isn't the end of the world. We just have to regroup and restrategize.

official. Trump wins
