Studying the Donald Trump case does not require much effort. It was a surprise that Trump made it to the White House, winning the American people's votes. The man swept all American states, which reflects the new public trend in the USA and the dominance of far right sentiments. Many political analysts, media figures and ordinary people considered Donald Trump's victory a major shock and disaster that would affect the USA and the entire world. As a reaction to his win, the elections came fast and might continue to accelerate to the peak until he is sworn into office at the beginning of next year.

For the first time in modern history, negative reactions to a US election match domestically and globally. Those pessimistic about Trump's ideas as well as his racist and narrow vision predict violence. This is a wave that has started dominating many Western societies lately. Trump not only defeated his opponent Hilary Clinton and her Democratic party, but also defeated many of the leaders of his own Republican party, as well as the American media. He also defeated nongovernmental organizations that mobilized their efforts against him, as well as thousands of sports, Hollywood and political celebrities including  three former presidents: Bill Clinton, George Bush and (soon to be ex president) Barak Obama. He is a clear manifestation of the silent majority in America that made this change.

What will happen to the USA is purely a domestic concern, though the entire world will be affected. However, both the American people and the world ought to learn two lessons from this experience. Trump succeeded in convincing the Americans that Washington DC and its political icons were corrupt and that those politicians were using them for the best interest of mega companies and Wall Street.

It was such a gigantic media machine that made the entire world fear the US, made it arrogantly a world leader, making it interfere in other countries concerns, create tensions, wage wars and kill people, backed by America's support to such a racist policy. Now, the Americans are suffering from the same and have started to sense the feeling of fear, anxiety, racial discrimination and an unknown future.

The world and governments, including Arabs and Muslims, have nobody to blame but themselves because they neglected education and human rights which has resulted in a situation where people line up in long queues outside US embassies for immigration. People have been oppressed by tyrant regimes and the USA seemed as the promised paradise on earth.

Arabs have been taking American weapons to fight each other. They have even deposited their wealth in American banks and financial institutions without any sense of shame or consideration to their dignity. They are now reaping what they had already sown. So, why are they upset? - Translated by Kuwait Times from Al-Jarida
