As was never expected, Trump has triumphed!

Now everyone, and every country, seems to be searching for excuses and trying to find answers to the vital question: “What will happen next?”

“ We will stop racing to topple foreign regimes, that we know nothing about, that we shouldn’t be involved with.”

This statement by the US President-elect Donald J. Trump is a glaring eye-opener, as well as a warning, to everyone who had used the super-power of the US to carry out their vendettas and topple stable regimes, especially in the Middle East and Asia.

It was Trump’s maxim “America First” that brought him the well-deserved victory over the Democrats, who were instrumental in turning our peaceful world into a chaotic and burning cauldron, while neglecting the needs and the aspirations of the American people.

His statement about not intervening in the political affairs of other countries, too, is a slap in the face of the “Humpty Dumpties”, including the Tamil diaspora and other vengeful parties and individuals, who used all manner of lies and deceitful facts to accomplish their personal agendas.

With the Trump’s win, trust has triumphed!

The future seems clear and hopeful. Putin’s acceptance of Trump as a strong and trustworthy leader proves the strength of Trump’s character. The partnership of the two superpowers, we hope, will augur well for the world and also would help in clearing the dirty and blood-soaked debris left behind by mentally deranged individuals.

Let peace and trust prevail!
