Publisher’s Analysis
“Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.” ― Martin Luther King Jr. The 2016 Election has come and gone, and the time for healing and harmony must not be compromised.
Politics is a policy of managing resources, focusing strategically on “who gets what?” Those who are successful are those who voted and stood by their candidates based on their civic needs and interests.
Electioneering support should be based on distinctive necessities and aspirations. We do not support parties and candidates because we like or hate them but because their policies dovetail our interests. Likewise, we do not support candidates because they would win but because their proposals meet our communal needs.
Therefore those who supported or stood by Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton based on their interests have rightfully fulfilled their desires.
About the unforeseen consequences of Trump’s presidency, only time will tell. Yet, without qualms, we must accept the fact, that America has a new President called Donald Trump.
