I can see your point, but I wasn't surprised at all. Brexit was a shock to many, but I tank that was just the beginning. After it was announced I had a bet with two American colleagues that Trump would get elected. I wish that bet had been for rmb100 instead of 20, lol.

It may sound trite, but the world is slowly waking up and saying that they've had enough of being pushed around and having their lives invaded by people who tell us they have our best interests at heart. It's all about control and people are sick of it. Trump was voted in, not because of who he is, but because of who people perceived him NOT to be.

Whether or not he becomes a good president remains to be seen, but he knows the eyes of the world are watching his every move and I reckon he's going to try his utmost to prove his worth.

Like him or loathe him, the man deserves our respect for what he's achieved so far, albeit early days.
