Ooops….Trump Is President-elect In America! – Tony Ogunlowo
November 10, 2016 – Ooops….Trump is President-elect in America! and article by Tony Ogunlowo
Just when you thought it was safe to come out from behind the sofa Donald Trump trumps Hilary Clinton to become the 45th President of America.
In a shock election victory he won 276 electoral college votes to Hilary Clinton 218. The Americans must have been finger-printing the wrong ballot papers!
Love him or hate. He might be a crass, rude, arrogant and bullying billionaire but he has managed to pull off one of the greatest political coups of all time; with absolutely no experience in politics, whatsoever, he managed to hoodwink the Republican party into accepting him as a Presidential candidate, took over the party, became the front runner and won the presidential elections. A great feat for the business mogul-reality TV show host.
“MY STYLE of deal-making is quite simple and straightforward. I aim very high, and then I just keep pushing and pushing and pushing to get what I’m after.”
― Donald J. Trump, Trump: The Art of the Deal
Up against a career politician such as Clinton he didn’t stand a chance – especially as he had no clear policies apart from wanting to make America great again. But he knew how to play the game – resorting to gutter-politics ( and rode out the storm when it back fired on him), made deals with leading ethnic groups( including Muslims and Hispanics) and appealed to the ordinary patriotic American in a language they understood. He used Hilary Clinton’s checkered past against her and it worked.
His campaign policies are controversial – and dangerous. This is a man who could potentially trigger World War 3.
Now he’s President we’ll see if he’s going to ban all Muslims from visiting America, build a border wall cutting off mexico( and charging them for it!), kick out all Nigerians ( he famously said that if he became President ‘we need to get the Africans out.Not the blacks, the Africans.Especially the Nigerians.They are everywhere!).
Here’s some of the things he’s promised to do:
- Launch a trade war with China by imposing hefty fees on imports.
- Build huge 1,900 mile wall along US-Mexican border.
- Ban ALL Muslims from entering the United States.
- Abolish Obamacare
- Ban the use of Federal funds to pay for abortions
- Will nominate supreme judges to defend gun rights.
- Bomb the hell out of ISIS.
And he’s threatened to jail Hilary Clinton….and give more power to the police…and he’s okay with gay marriage….and he’s not in favour of environmental protection…and he’s a misogynist( mothers you better lock up your daughters!)
The next four years are going to be very exiting with President Trump, finger on the nuclear button, ruling the world from ‘Trump’ White House!
Nations of the world get ready for an influx of American refugees fleeing the USA!

Honestly I just hope this man change most of this sel-destructive policy of his. Very,very dangerous policy he has that could well turn the back of muslim countries against america.
The only two policy he has that is well meaningful and could bear fruit in the long run is the trade war he has called for with china. Imposing heavy tax on Chinese importation of goods into US as well as US firms that had relocated to china over the past decades is the beginning of diversification of their economy. Because many of the US companies that are operating in china will then be forced to come back to US thereby creating more jobs for US citizens at home.
Another policy of his which I found beneficial is that of Banning the use of US federal fund to pay for abortion. It is another praiseworthy move that could end abortion in US. That’s also a good policy from him. Aside from this two,I think the well experienced top republican politicians have to come to his aid in order for them to achieve good governance and maintain their friendship with outside world.

That is the writer‘s opinion NOT Trumps. At a time when the muslims are yarning for the ultimate position in govt in the World, somebody like President Trump is the man to stop that catastrophic intended move.
I take a stroll…

Thank you D Hunter for that wise comment, Obama has been promoting Muslim interests worldwide while shocking or supressing Isreal and other christians values nation in the world. Trump victory is the will of God Almighty to stop certain evil from overtaken our world. My prayer is for God to empower, and grant him wisdom and understanding to make America and the world great again.

Trump win may have come as a shock to many. But it is not by accident. It is the lord’s doing. Mark my word today. God must be a reason for this to have happened. For a very time, we have failed to open our eyes, hearts and minds to God’s supremacy. Now here comes the time, by fire by force we are all completely Humbled by the ultimate force and the creator. Trump is just a vessel used by God to Amazed the entire world. What will happen next is well unknown by trump himself but God’s motive behind Trump emergence as the U.S president. God wins Not Trump.

Mr. Ogunlowo you are a prophet! before you finished declaring that people are going to flee the US it is already happening. The protesters are on the American Highways . Nobody prays for instability in any country butI hope the US president elect can start delivering on his campaign promises by sharing with his predecessor in Office that magic he alluded to when during campaign he criticized the nationwide protests from police killings and blamed them on the weakness of the Government. Now he has jumped in at the deep end we hope he has the solution to restoring calm in a country his campaign rhetorics rendered unstable ?
This is poetic justice that you cannot sow potatoes and reap bananas. Everybody is watching to see how things play out so……..over to you sir !!!

Brother Tony Ogunlowo is here using fear tactics to scare American people and her residents, there is something in American political system called check and balance. President Trump doesn’t have dictatorship power in American democracy, therefore he has to get approval from the U.S congress in order to implement his ideas and many campaign promises. God has bless him, and He has used him to humble the mighty and the proud in hearts that He-Jehovah ruleth in the affairs of men and nation. I believe that God Almighty will use once rejected stone that has now become the cornerstone to rebuild, bless, and uplift the United States of America. Congratulations to President-Elect Trump for his unusual and upset victory over an arrogant and wicked woman who think is her family throne to be American next president. But mind you, nothing surprises God Almighty because Mr. Trump has been destined as American 45th president since the foundation of the world. To God be the glory! God has rescue millions of potential babies from the sword of Hillary Clinton outrageous and Ungodly abortion policy.
