The Aftermath 

of the 2016 Presidential Election

It appears that uneducated white voters massively supported Trump. A lot of women actually decided to vote for him, despite his sexist comments. Trump embodied the anti-establishment vote, he captured the anger of the disaffected rural workers.

Since last week, we found out that Hillary won the popular vote, even if / even though she lost the electoral college vote.

 

Since his victory, Donald Trump HAS BECOME more serious / responsible / mellowed / subdued. He HAS CHANGED his policies / his promises a little bit too.

Why ? Maybe he HAS REALISED that he is the President. Reality HAS DAWNED ON him, and Mr Domingos thinks Mr Trump needs to unify / rally the country behind him.

Jesus's favourite Trump ad / advert / commercial was the first one, because Trump LOOKED LIKE a hero / a savior / a superhero who could protect the country from all threats. He LOOKED strong and determined.

The Aftermath of Trump's Election

Most American people voted for Hillary Clinton = she won the popular vote, but she lost the electoral college vote, Trump won more 'electors'.

Mr Tabasko thinks that educated people were more likely to vote Democrat. Trump received a lot of support from disaffected white workers from rural areas with little or no education.

Since his election, Donald Trump HAS CHANGED his tune / his attitude. Maybe because he doesn't have to be the « attack-dog » or the « war-machine » he was during the election. Maybe because he HAS REALISED that he is the president now. Reality HAS DAWNED ON him and he HAS ADOPTED a different behaviour.

Mr Q's favourite ad / commercial was the one in which Trump's lies were shown. In this ad, he LOOKED LIKE a compulsive liar. He DIDN'T LOOK TRUSTWORTHY / RELIABLE / HONEST, he LOOKED deranged and unfit to be president.
