The Attacks on Donald after his Win; Vicious and Terrible * 68

Donald won the election fair and square. However, a reading of the mainstream media will give the impression that the United States is in turmoil and the entire nation is unhappy with Donald's victory. This is far from the truth, yet media sites like the Huffington Post continue to chant that Donald is a serial liar. One may well ask the editors of the 4th estate whether in American politics there are any truthful people like Gandhi? Again, the media must answer as to how Donald won if he had no support. The millions that voted for him must feel insulted.

An analogy

There are a lot of similarities between the election of Narendra Modi and Trump. Modi won and the mainstream media was shocked and surprised. They sided with the defeated Congress party and began insinuating a host of things. They talked about him being a killer, man against secularism, and a wife deserter. The press was egged on by the defeated opponents.
In a similar fashion, the men who had written with disdain about Donald have now ganged up by giving prominence to lurid tales about him and insinuating that he was a Russian stooge. In addition, the previous president Obama tried his best to box in the US president by way of executive decisions. The effort is to cage Donald and limit him.

Mass hysteria

Many American citizens of prominence have been shouting that Donald is not their president. This is extremely divisive news and opponents like Madonna have said that they want to blow up the White House. Later, she said the words were taken out of context. Whatever it may be, a mass hysteria is built up against Trump. The effort is to delegitimize his victory. This does not bode well for the future. Donald will remain the president for at least 4 years, barring impeachment.

Allegations

By making wild allegations about his Russian connection the press and his opponents are hoping he will be impeached. Little do these demonstrators realize that they are destroying the USA from within. I wonder how Hillary could have been a better president with all the scandals surrounding her. Donald is a resilient man and one hopes he can weather the storm.

Donald Trump is Riding High * 76

Donald Trump Represents a Reality: There are Many in America who support him

Lack lustre rule of Obama is coming to an end and a new president will be sworn in. It is interesting to note that a extreme right wing candidate in Donald Trump does have a sizeable number of supporters


Politics in America.


The political scenario in America has heated up and the leading opposition contender is Donald Trump. He leads the pack and his likely opponent is Hillary Clinton, wife of ex-president Bill Clinton. I suppose this is her only qualification as she has for so long been identified with the establishment, that Americans will want a change and I am sure she will not win. Whether Donald gets the nomination or not, is not the point, but I am convinced the American people will vote for change and Hillary does not figure in that line up.

The US president is the most powerful in the world and one fact that cannot be hidden is the role of the present president Barack Hussein Obama. A fact not known to many is that he was the man who released Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi from Camp Bucca in 2009 . This man now heads the dreaded ISIS and Daesh and has dreams of establishing an Islamic Caliphate. As per Dr Micheal Knight an Iraq expert at the Washington Institute for near East Policy , Baghdai is a Salafi( follower of a fundamentalist Islam) and carried an awrd of $ 10 million on his head. The fact is this man is also a threat to many countries in the region including teh UAE and Saudi Arabia, not forgetting Egypt.

One fact that is clear is that during the time of Obama the war on terror ( islamic fundamentalism) was toned down and the results have been disasterous. There are many YouTube videos showing the speeches of Obama which to say the least are chilling. My point is that with the present dispensation in power, the US has beome more vulnerable. An American travelling abroad is in great danger as there is a chance he would be captured by Muslim Jihadi . In adition alll over the world, the US is at the recieving end and to many it is the "great Satan".

In such a scenario the rise of the ideas of Donald Trump is inevitable. His winning or losing is a game, but the fact is that almost 30% Americans believe that something drastic should be done about Islamic activities.This is more pronounced after the California killings. Donald Trump has articulated that thought and idea. To condemn him for suggesting profiling of Muslims and stopping of more Mosques being built is not a point at all. Perhaps he is being overly aggressive, but then he is pandering to the present american sentiment.

The American's want change and it will come. After all Hitler also came to power in a general election. This is not to suggest that a Hitler will emerge in America, but the exit of the negative years of Obama must be rectified and history will do it.
