Maybe I am out of touch with some Americans, but I am going to speak facts here.

You are rapidly losing your influence all over the world, and you all are too busy infighting American vs American to see it. Look at The Bahamas, we for have many years been a staunch American ally, that is all changing. Baha Mar, the largest development resort in our country, has been secretly handed over to the Chinese by our government, we are now buying armoured vehicles tear gas grenade launchers and other military equipment from China, and are negotiating with the Chinese to sell them 10,000 acres of land on Andros aswell as fishing rights in the country. Please tell me how America is not losing influence world wide. We are slowly slipping back into the Communist sphere of influence through our trade with China and Cuba and even Russia. What interest could they possibly have in a country so close to America, oh thats right, military bases to counter Western influence.

Look I am going to be frank with you my American friends the good half of the world thinks you are a bunch of idiots even before Trump. I don't feel that way but many people do. Your politics don't even compare to the Bahamas politics, you think your s*** is crazy. Don't do it. Here in the Bahamas we mudsling for every little political fallacy we even had a Senator tell the Chairwoman to "stop likin man" based off of a popular Bahamian youtube comedy.

Anyways, let me tell you why Trump won. It is a global trend right now as the political pendulum swings back to the right. Look at Nigel Farage in the UK, the rise of far-right groups in Italy and Switzerland among other countries, Brexit. Point is people all over the world are tired of establishment candidates, and that is what many of you (based on what I am getting from your opinions assuming you are Democrats) chose. Bernie would have been the best anti-establishment candidate the Democrats could have put forward, but they didn't. Trump won on the anti-establishment vote.

All I am trying to tell you guys is that nothing is going to get done for your country unless people from both sides come together and work bipartisanly. Like I said in my earlier post I was not happy that my candidate lost in our 2012 election, but hey I moaned about it for a few days, then realized life goes on. It has hardly affected me, besides from all these friggin new taxes he has put on us. So get up, and go live your lives to the fullest, regardless of who is President.

Blessings to you my American friends.
