Trump wins USA election 2016

Republican candidate, Donald J Trump, wins the presidency of 2016-2020. He managed to gain at least 270 seats by winning key states such as Florida, Iowa, Ohio and North Carolina. This meant that another President Clinton was highly unlikely.

Many Clinton supports at the Clinton HQ are devastated at the result with a spokesman saying "the result looked like it was going in our favour...but we've all been proven wrong."

The more seats Mr Trump gains the more likely the wall is seeming a reality. Certain people across the world claim that "this is the start of world war 3."

Donald Trump is going to be the first president that his advisor is going to be himself.

An America Citizen said that "we're making history" while another citizen said "there is already a wall and our children are going to carry on voting and we're ready to mobilize."

"I feel good about it and didn't feel it was a surprise. Ashamed to vote for Donald Trump but he is the lesser of two evils. People are very quick to say Donald Trump isn't the right choice. I was upset when Trump didn't win more seats."
This was a quote from a Trump supporter who voted for Trump to be President.

Hillary Clinton tried to catch up by winning Nevada boosting her seats to 215 but she didn't manage to gain the electorate majority in more states. Due to the close result it means that Donald Trump has a weak mandate.

The financial markets were hoping for a Hillary Clinton win. This election was very much like Brexit as the whole country is split and the markets start to dip which means that this election wasn't good for democracy. It is predicted that all the main markets will be down by at least 4%.

The US dollar also falls against many major currencies and Japan's Nikkei 225 briefly plunges 6.1%. Putin was hoping Trump would win as it would mean that America could work with Russia. This means that the UK will now have to befriend Russia. London futures fall more than 4.0%.
