When I turned the TV off this morning, Hilary was in the lead at the start of the counting. I turned it off because I was already sick of hearing about it. It was on every channel. I went and did some stuff around the house, ate some stuff, looked at other sites.
Then when I turned the TV back on this afternoon, everything had turned around.
I actually said this out loud: “Jesus fucking Christ!”
I’m not American (obviously). We all have an opinion on what has and is happening right now. The media (here at least) have made Trump out to be a complete and utter joke. And now everyone is in shock LOL.
I am. How freaking scary. And over 55 MILLION (so far) Americans have voted for him. Last I looked, Clinton was at 54 Million, with Trump ahead by over a million nationwide, but it’s still quite close. Very close in fact, so much so that Clinton still hasn’t conceded. The number isn’t quite at 270 yet.
I think it’s cool that 100 million Americans turned out to vote. I heard that at the 2004 election, 9 million Americans didn’t vote, and I think that number is down this election.
It’s something like 2am over in the USA, so I guess a lot of them will wake up to this news, but here I’ve had to put it up with it all day, as it’s daytime here!
I did get away from it for a few hours though.
A couple of commentators comments threw me though. Such as high figures reading through the constitution to see if they actually have to do stuff IF Trump decides to go ahead with it (such as rounding up people from around the country to deport them out).
I’m quite intrigued as to how the wall’s going to be built also. Nothing like uniting people together by shutting them out.
But hey, it doesn’t directly affect me. It just stuns me that people are revolutionizing this year (ie. Britain with Brexit and USA with this).
I see the Mexican Pesos has dropped 11 percent already.
