In one of the most shocking U.S. elections in modern political history, Donald Trump, Republican nominee defeated Hillary Clinton today. 

70 year old 'new President-elect' of the United States, is a billionaire real estate mogul and reality television personality.

He is scheduled to take office as the 45th President on January 20, 2017. 

Months back he gleefully compared himself to the Brexit vote in England. As president, Trump has promised he will build a wall along the border with Mexico, suspend the Syrian refugee resettlement program, repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act and renegotiate NAFTA. After all his presidential slogan was 'Make America Great Again'!

As the victory rolled in for Trump, enthusiastic social media has reacted quickly. Here are some Facebook reactions regarding Trump triumph.
