Rant #1,779: I'm Donald I, I Am

The American people have spoken.

Donald Trump has won the most contemptuous Presidential race in U.S. history in what some people--mainly the so-called experts--called an upset, but what, to me, showed us that the American people are smarter than the media gave them credit for.

Based on this vote, the American people voiced an opinion that they are fed up with politics as usual in the Oval Office, or, at least, fed up with politics that they have experienced for the past eight years.

They are fed up with the swagger and the elitist tone of the Democratic Party, and after voting in President Barack Obama for two terms, they have seen the division that he as Commander in Chief has caused, and they showed their displeasure when they cast their vote.

Under President Obama, we have the biggest racial divide that we have had since the 1960s; we have hoods lauded as heroes, cops as villains; we negotiate with known terrorists and forget our long time friends throughout the world; we have rampant security problems on our own soil; we have a health care system that has crippled what was left of the middle class; we have illegal immigrants streaming into this country in droves, because they know they can get away with it; and we have an educational system that is totally out of sync with reality.

And yes, all of this transpired, at the very least in a great part, under President Obama's watch.

This was a successful eight years? Only for those who prospered under it, and not for the majority of the American people.

I don't know how many people actually like Trump, but they liked Clinton less.

She projected herself as a cocksure politician, above any rule or law or way of thinking. She was supposedly made of teflon, like her husband, and would run away with this election as if she were the hare and Trump was the tortoise.

Well, sometimes the tortoise does win the race, and it happened yesterday.

And when the results came in loud and clear, Trump himself said he would be the President for "us," not just those that voted for him. He said that Clinton conceded, but like the type of person she is, she did not make a public concession speech, as is the norm on Presidential Election Day night.

Why she chose not to make this speech on Election Day night actually speaks volumes about her character, an element that doomed her in this race.

People simply did not trust her, did not trust her character, and that, my friends, is why this woman lost the race.

Yes, somewhere down the line there will be a woman President, but Hillary Clinton will not be that groundbreaker. She simply isn't the person to break that barrier, and the American people said it with their votes.

And as for all the phonies who said they would leave the country if Trump were elected, well, now is the time to make your travel plans.

If anyone needed to see how truly cockeyed Clinton was, the day before the election, she brought out "star power" including Jay-Z and Beyonce, the power couple of hip hop.

This was a major, major tactical mistake--he sings joyously of the rape of women, she sings just as joyously about her hatred of law enforcement.

Using these two people to laud your candidacy was a major, major error, showing how out of touch with the American people's wants and needs she really was.

We need normalcy, we need decency, we need a sense of being heard.

The American people believe that Donald Trump--this son of Queens, New York, just like I am--will provide that, and he has four years to show that he can do just that.

Let's give him a chance.
