Wednesday, the votes were tallied, and the nation watched as Donald Trump was named the new president of the United States, defeating Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton.
We asked you whether or not the American people made the correct decision, and you provided your input.
Ben Eastes:
“It is what the people wanted. They will go with the decision until they are completely unhappy with it, or till the next election comes up and they vote somebody else in.
“You look at Trump saying okay, this is someone that has been outside the scope of politics, doesn’t have the bias that maybe other politicians do so that he can stand out and truthfully no let those biases, and those lobby parties be his dictating factor, or so you hope not.
“He is from the big business world, you know he has made a lot of money, whether right or wrong, he does have that background so you have to wonder is his mind going to be with his friends and have a lot of money, or is it going to be with the American people that he is representing because he doesn’t have to bow down to those people.”
Paola Ponce-Villalobos:
“We had to pick the lesser of the two evils this year.”
Anonymous:
“Yes, America got it right. For one, I cannot support someone who is military ???? and can pretend that they are there and they need their help, and two I can’t stand behind a women who rips babies apart at 36 weeks when my son was born at 36 weeks gustation. That’s called murder.”
Olivia Yandel
“Yes, America did it right by voting in Trump. He is smart enough to realize he has no idea what he is talking about, but he is going to get the best cabinet put together and they are going to run America for him.
“All Trump cares about is his own image. He doesn’t care about whether or not he is going to screw America over. So what is he going to do to make himself not look like an idiot? He’s got Mike Pence, which I think is a stud and I think he is going to put in a bunch of great people into his cabinet to make sure they run America right.”
J.C. Wells:
“American should not have a first lady named Bill.”
