confirmed! good job bro, The truth is Trump won overwhelmingly and by a landslide. So at d end more people voted for trump dan Hillary, @Valerian, take note. So who are these guys protesting? I see Soros' fingerprints all over this. That man should be jailed real time and his accounts frozen. Just recently a pregnant woman was attacked by these violent protestors, very sad indeed.
Most of them that are in the protest are in because they see others going in. Some are foreigners who are afraid for their future with a Trump presidency. Others are simply in for losing. But now that he has won both the popular and EC votes, I wonder how most of them would be feeling now. When Trump said that the MSM was lying pertaining to polls result, they said he was talking down their democracy. But now that the full elections results are out, it becomes even more clearer that most of the MSM were seriously under control of external forces.

I tell you, this Trump victory and presidency will unravel a lot of bad things.

I wasn't going to reply to the junk you posted but i changed my mind because I sincerely believe that you are smarter than this. You called you and your friends that supported Trump well wishers and we that supported Hillary trolls. Does that make any sense to you. Valeriansteel , CFCman and I and few others here that supported Hillary are Good standing American citizens just like your idol Trump. We are as American as he's in every respect. Calling us trolls makes absolutely no sense since we have stakes in the happenings in America by virtue of us being a tax paying, hard working and good citizens. If anyone is a troll, it should be you guys that have absolutely no stakes in America . I wish you guys put the same passion on Nigeria that you did on the past American election. If you guys are that passionate about your homeland, I believe Nigeria will make a U Turn for good. The issue about Electoral votes is something else. Only four people who ever lost elections and winning the popular votes are all Democrats starting with the founder of the Democratic Party, Andrew Jackson and recently Al Gore and Hillary. I like it the way it is now because EV is a way to make the smaller states counts in the scheme of things. I live in one of the biggest states in the country and I sure don't want some small states in the middle of nowhere in US be shut out. That's why EV is here to stay.
Dear Lucas, in as much as i respect you and others here, there are times I begin to wonder if some of you acclaimed Americans are even aware of the country you are living in. If most of you do, you wouldn't be coming to a Nigerian forum with the impudence of telling Nigerians to mind their business where America is involved. That to me, Is the height of ignorance and arrogance.

It is trite that every well informed human being on this planet have a stake in the political runnings of America. This is as a result of the country's socio-political and economic status in the global scheme of things. Political and economic events in the United States has the potentials to virtually impact negatively or positively on the global political and economic order, not just because of its number one economic status, but largely relating to the nature of its Foreign Policy-the tenets, direction and implementation that underlines such Policy. Did some of you take note of how the stocks market globally were rumbling throughout and after the US elections?

The fact that most of you can't even see this, baffles my imagination. Perhaps, this is the prime reason why it's been said in some quarters that a sizable numbers of Americans are greatly misinformed and unaware of the realities in the outside world as it relate to their country. It is a very sad thing to behold, if true.

Just this morning, its on the news that your beloved America has again blocked the Nigerian government from acquiring some arms from Brazil that would have helped in countering Boko Haram, and somebody is telling me to mind my own business? Now, tell me, why shouldn't I believe that some of you guys are dangerously jingoistic and extreme nationalist?

Mind you, I didn't call anyone a troll. Cfcman is the owner of this thread and my views aligned with his regarding the EC system and the need for a change. I don't know about Valeriansteel, and as for yourself, I believe you know the reasons why I have critique and will continue to critique America: so I need not worry about name calling.

A troll is a person enveloped in mendacity, blinded by sentiment and hallucinating in jingoism to the extent that he becomes dangerously incoherent and unable to comprehend logically and reason maturedly. He sees 1 and tells you is I. And that is exactly what some of us down here are known for. Anybody who opines that Hillary (who gloried over the destruction of a country and the death of it's leader) is better than Trump (who said grab them by the pussy,) is a TROLL, and a dangerous one for that matter.

On the EC system, you have a point but the fact remains that the disadvantages by far outweigh the advantage. Any political society that pride itself as a democracy and yet elect it's representatives through the minority, is a complete aberration. The system encourages segregation and entrenched inequality amongst Americans. The worst part of it all is that it discourage thousands of people from voting. Its the reason why America keep experiencing low voters turn out on election days. Why would you want to vote when you know that your vote won't matter at the end due to the availability of swing states with special EC votes and their winner-takes-it all reality? It simply doesn't make sense! Beside, if the system is good,, I don't see why the clamour for change now.

On Nigeria, there is nobody that has criticised this country more than I do on this section. I supported this present regime against the previous one who happened to come from my own region because it was a total failure, with corruption like an open air crusade. But the fact that Nigeria is still corrupt and currently facing economic challenges, doesn't stop me from airing my views on the sidelines of global politics, especially where they have implications for my own country and world peace.


The appraisals and criticisms must continue as a matter of necessity.

Just look at how they're complaining about the same system they benefited from. The electoral college dat ensured Obama served 2 terms in Office. Oh because dis time their candidate lost and Trump won and so it's time to get rid of it? grin
You're correct. They are bunch of hypocrites. They have been benefiting from the same system ever since, but now that the tables have turned, the want it removed.
Pathetic.

But let's be truthful, that system is a very wrong one to begin with, whether we trump well-wishers like it or not, or whether the Dems troll errand boys like it or not. The fact that its only the US that's practicing this unwholesome aberration in this modern era, goes to show how unpopular and inimical it is to the realities of the 21st century.

The EC is a gross aberration of the right to vote. The reasons are overwhelming.

Nevertheless, President OgheneDonaldPutin Trump has been elected POTUS, and that's all we care about... grin grin

The rest of the terrorists sympathisers and warmongering wolves supporters can go and cry wolf in Aleppo; the Russians are there waiting to cap up the wailings... grin

Take a seat,the electoral college is fair and good. It's a great way of combating voting fraud if nothing else...
My brother, no electoral system can effectively combat fraud than the option A4, and even at that, there is still always a way to beat it; talk less of the EC system, which is a direct opposite of the term "democracy".

No! The system did not combat any voting fraud, otherwise you wouldn't be hearing of machines switching votes and dead people voting. The EC system is only a great way of cheating others. Its the most sophisticated tool of discrimination and segregation, if truly you know how it works. It is a system that breeds, defines and entrenched inequality among Americans.

And that is a fact, notwithstanding its the same system that elected Trump.

Let's be honest to ourselves. grin

It's gonna be a long for years,the new coalition is energized and we'll stun the GOP in four years to come.
So now you're begininig to accredit the cosmic orderliness of global and important events, lol? grin You guys use to brand us conspiracy crack nuts. What happens now? cheesy

Any way, what will be will be. In the spiritual scheme of things, Trump is just a means to an end. But don't think the Dems would be taking over so soon, except by the distant possibility that still exist between now and January 20.

Right on! Appleyard. Good to see you here.

The vote fraud was EPIC, but they never expected so many to turn out for Trump, they underestimated the anger of good Americans.

God really answers prayers.

It's time for Amerika to return to godly values and Trump being an old man, with little time left on this side of the Divide, will certainly commence the process and reverse the slide to the dark side epitomised by the blood letting lot.

Truly, God is great!
I greet you, dear brother. Truly, God is great. To Him be glory and praise forever. The United States was founded on the principles of Godly reverence, but today, they have kicked out God and brought in Satan to the homes, schools and everything else. But its never too late, for God is not finish with that country yet. Now we can breath a sigh of relief as the fear of a global war just subsided by 65 degrees. The demons of war are foaming right now, as their human puppet agent is failing them one by one. For when the devil begins a move, the Holy Spirit is always on hand to counter it, making a public show of them. Once again, God has given another chance to make amends before the nuclear winter gathers again.

On this note, I hope and pray that Trump contribute much to global peace as earlier promised. The human race must take advantage of this momentum.

God bless us all.

I won't take it personal since we all lose once in a while. I remember my discussion with you about your cosmic order. When I want to buy my stocks, will be contacting you. We can go Dutch on the capital gains. That's a deal. Lol
Lol.... cheesy The cosmic mostly concern themselves on events of global proportions... hardly on individual wealth and personal issues, except when one had a personal encounter with them.

The elections have come and gone, life goes on in America and beyond. Frankly speaking, I'm not expecting much to change overnight, but just like Nigerians, Americans are fighters, and so they will survive come what may. The only reason I was interested in this election was the trouble in Mideast, the beef with Russia and the dangerous threat it poses to global peace. That was the ONLY reason I was wishing Trump to win.

Notwithstanding, if he fails and they (the satanic elites and the MIC contractors or the banks) succeed in controlling him, then we are back to square one.


Till then, one can only hope for the best.

Just relax and forget the loss. Our individual destiny is far beyond the Oval Office - be it here in Nigeria or there in America.


Like Pac, life goes on!

Are you eating your words yet buddy?

Like I told you, you are a novice in the great power game. When the whole MSM is against Trump and the same group produced all the polls, you can bet it's phony. I am not surprised by the result I saw same in the Brexit vote. The elites promote their own but ultimately I have always felt that God seems to be behind trump cos it's not ordinary to bring down the bush and the Clinton dynasty who have the support of the MSM and the masses they control.
You are right about God being behind him. Is on record that his emergence and victory was predicted way back in 2000. Even recently before the elections, a mystic monkey in China predicted Trump to win. The problem is that most people believe what the MSM tells them, and so they hardly can comprehend what the cosmic is saying.

Trump's victory was never ordinary.

Still very early to judge. Lets be hopeful but one thing is for sure, there won't be 3rd world war and even if the war hawks continue to hawk, VVP is still very much around.
Of course, the warhawks will always be around, but certainly not with trump at the helms of affairs, except he is something we still don't know yet. The man has a certain soft spot towards Putin, and I expect this to translate to a far reaching relationship aimed at working together on global issues, Instead of the confrontations that threatens global peace. I would like to see his first move in the middle east. That is, if the current leadership don't make things worst for him before January 28.

Maybe because the us is the greatest country in the world and Obama's only policy in Africa was the Total destruction of Libya
May God add six years plus your remaining years here on earth. Some people who are calling Trump a racist here, are the actual racist themselves. Obama is black but the only legacy he and Hillary left for Africa was to destroy and gloried in the destruction of Libya, as well as the refusal to designate Boko Haram as a terrorist organization. Call it hypocritical wickedness. The worst part of it is that it was under a black president that the US witness a record killing of blacks by racist and kkk infested mad cops, and the sellout president did nothing about it. The economic fortunes of African American communities grew worse under a black president, with increased violence becoming the norm of daily living in African American neighborhoods.

Now, how do you expect them to come out and vote when they have been repeatedly lied to and neglected, even by their own brother?

What happened in this election is simply more of a protest vote, not that Trump was more credible than Hilary.

There is a limit a man can go when pushed to the wall; be sure to see last gasp show of indifference, and that's exactly what this election was about - despite all the wrong things Trump said and did, he still got elected.

Hell has no fury like the backlash from an indifferent voter.

Yeah, a fighter she is, but this time around, she ain't winning any battle. I told Lucas way back last year that the cosmic order had already anointed Trump to win since the year 2000. The truth is, the spiritual governs the physical. And there is nothing we can do about it. As a Jew, you should have known this things. Man project, but ONLY God elects.

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!"
