DONALD TRIUMPH!!!



                   
One of the lessons to be learned from this Trump episode is, “nobody can stop you until you stop”. Unlike many Nigerians Donald Trump has being on my radar since as far back as 2010, for the wrong reasons of course. I first came across the Trump “personality” when I managed to read just two chapters of his self acclaimed bestselling book “Think Big, Kick Ass”. His diction, his tone and puff in those first two chapters steered up a dust of discord between me his personality. A dust that has lasted till date and is not likely to settle anytime soon. However a good lesson to been learned is a good lesson to be learned, not withstanding its source.

In 2000, Donald Trump voluntarily withdrew from the presidential race, on the ground that the Reform party under which he wanted run was too dysfunctional to support his campaign as well as they didn’t stand a chance against the Republicans and the Democrats. It took Trump another sixteen years formerly declare interest for the Oval office after series of speculation between 2004 and 2012. I personally think that those years of speculation were years of preparation and study of the naivety and gullibility of the white republican voting majority.
Donald Trump’s victory at the polls in November 2016 preaches resilience, doggedness and a never say die belief in your abilities, among other things. How Donald Trump ended election night as Donald Triumph is a still a mystery to me and many other Hillary faithful around the world, even as some Hillary supporters are holding anti-Trump protest in the U.S.A at this time. The fact is, I do not like Donald Trump, but I love his resilience. I sincerely think Hillary a better President, if given the office, but come January 20, 2017, Trump will be President whether anybody likes it or not. These anti-Trump campaigns, if converted into votes for Hillary Clinton on election night would have being more resourceful to keep Trump out of the Oval office, all the media back lashing and propaganda didn’t. However that ship has long sailed.
 I congratulate America on making what I see as a terrible decision. I congratulate Donald Trump for his trust in the gullibility of Republican Americans to make such a terrible choice, and I sympathies with John McCain, Mitt Romney for finding themselves on the wrong side of  the Trumping.
