THE 45th.

20-01-2017

What began as a yuge joke a few months ago terminates today with the coronation.... I'm sorry the swearing in of arguably the most unpopular president in the history of the God's own country- the US of A.

I must reflect on the man's campaign, how he stuck to his 'agbero' tactics and rhetoric to outlast the 'anointed' Hilary dealing her a surprise left hook to the body like we have seen last round upsets in some boxing fights. He effectively ended Hilary Clinton's eight years quest for the oval office and her bid to make history.

Michelle Obama talked about mercury rising and falling but the reaction to the Donald has largely been opposite of a risen state. The bitterness is still so palpable, one could have thought that the a candidate winning the electoral college votes but losing the popular vote was a definite impossibility. There is also the alleged Russian hack angle, I'm not quite certain how that variable managed to affect early voting and made a mockery of just about every pre-election poll which had Mrs Clinton winning comfortable by sizeable margins.

The emergence of Ivanka's father exposes fundamental problems with the American union; these are issues which have been masked for many decades by layers of cosmetic. The Donald's coming has served to excavate that foundation, it is still a mystery to me what he will lay upon the raw areas his methods have created or unearthed. He may have run on the Republican ticket but he said many things he has since blatantly denied.

Some of his picks as secretaries have been described as sharks, racist or naive. The pick for education was grilled yesterday and one wonders if America's education wouldn't completely collapse with her in charge. The pick for Attorney General is 70 years old just like the incoming president is. It was fascinating to watch three African American men each testify for and against his choice. I was tempted to believe that sentiments and not facts were employed to take his screening to the stage of open testimonies. I was more convinced by the arguments of those men who spoke in the senator's defence.

Donald Trump's first action as president may just be to fiddle with the football and launch codes to America's nukes. He may just bomb North Korea and pull American troops out of Poland to please Vladamir- who knows. I doubt if he'd have such liberties and by the way, he's not fancied by both members of his party and the opposition so the ice-cold Pence has his odds for the oval already slashed massively.

Will Trump be a good president? Many are convinced he's already a tragedy and will fight with everything to constantly portray him in bad light or no light at all. A Trump presidency is not ideal but that's what the world has to deal with. His scorecard already reads 'FAILED,' I'm not sure there's any grade lower than that. Let's hope he does okay at least, the world will definitely be peaceful if the Donald can stay tanned and on his best behavior. Palor should not be allowed to set in, he may just need transfusion from all over the world to manage that.

Who says he's not made history? There'll only be one 45th and he'd be producing and directing the yugest reality TV show in history.

All hail the Donald!!!!!
