everal members of the African American communities are expressing mixed reactions and surprise to the elections of controversial New York-based businessman Donald J Trump as the 45th president of the United States.
Trump defeated Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton by securing 270 Electoral College votes and currently leads Clinton 290-228 during the Tuesday (Nov 8) national elections. Entering Tuesday elections with most polls showing Clinton with marginal but steady leads, Trump's chances of victory were seen as remote. The Electoral College map was considered favorable to Clinton, who was said to have several paths to the winning threshold of 270 electoral votes. However, Trump obliterated Clinton's firewall, picking off unexpected wins in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, as well as sweeping swing states like North Carolina, Florida and Ohio.

With some 70% of the African American registered as Democrat there were expression of disappointment including strong emotional expression that Clinton was defeated by Trump. Democrat Mayor of Mount Vernon Richard Thomas says, “President-elect Donald Trump has promised to make American great again. It is my sincere hope that he remains true to that promise for all of America, particularly for communities of color that have experienced significant challenges gaining equal access to the American Dream.” Empowerment coach Carol Cameron says Trump may not be her first choice but it may be God’s plan and “we hope he will deliver on his promises by ‘making America great again.’ I expect him to do his job in the interest of the people of America.” Real estate broker Henry Lindo says “it’s a shocker, but it is also send a message to his naysayers and his political opponents not to be complacent. However, I expect him to success and overall the country’s infrastructures.” “We want Mr. Trump to do good, but he should focus on building a sustainable economy, much better than how he operates his own business,” Master stylist Pauline Fairclough explains.
