The managing Editor of the New Crusading Guide newspaper says Donald Trump's Presidential win is 'shocking' but Americans must accept him as their President.
Thousands of Americans took to the streets in cities across America to protest that Donald Trump “is not my president.’’
Columbus, Ohio; Minneapolis; Madison and Milwaukee joined in protests that had begun Wednesday in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle, Philadelphia, Boston and other larger cities.
This was after Trump of the Republican Party defeated his main rival, Hillary Clinton of the Democratic Party, to become the 45th president of the world’s most powerful country, following elections held on Tuesday November 8.
Speaking to the election and its aftermath, Kweku Baako said during a panel discussion on Joy FM's Newsfile that even though he was also shocked that Donald Trump won the election, there is the need for Americans to live with that decision.
“I was also shocked when it turned out that Mr Trump had won the elections. It was the least thing I expected. I think he suffers sincerity deficit because of the things he had said….I find it shocking…what I don’t like is the protest underway… even though sentimentally I appreciate where the protestors are coming from. I think that in terms of the American system, they ought to live with that decision for the next four years…The media cabal against him was self-inflicted…and I am sure if it had not been the electoral college, he will not be in the white house…but here we are; saddled with the American presidency for the next four years…” he said.

Time will tell.
you are talking about sincerelity of Trump what about Clinton
The Electoral college system is what has been the tradition. Hilary had no message apart from relying on Obama liberal legacy which many questioned. She campaigned like a gender activist and mainly appealed to students and the youth. The worse of it was the media and celebrity hype and endorsement coupled with lies and vilification on the personality of Trump. On the other hand Trump trumpeted message of hope to the discerning matured and experienced voters.
you are very correct but what made it surprising was the lies, unfair play and international propaganda from the camp of Hillary. I could not believe what warranted Hillary's camp to publish naked statues of Trump, Although Trump's camp retaliated, the fact that Hillary's camp started it showed they went far below belt on a number of occasions
Kweku Baako is far better and impartial than kwesi pratt
