On the other note, we shouldn't be too scared, as the legislative and judicial systems will keep Trump in line. It's nearly impossible for him to able to build any walls to separate mexico and america, let alone have said country pay for it.
Although he may deny important laws, the people can always try to bring it to the supreme court. Same goes to any exceptionally bad laws he passes, they can be abolished.

I also don't see why america, the land of the free, is to be led by someone who sees it as a business, when there is no CEO, but someone who congregates with the people, to help make this a better country.

Again, I know next to nothing about politics, so feel free to correct me, it's a free country.

Cheers.

You don't seem like you're unintelligent, but the media has fed you misinformation. Hillary Clinton was favoured heavily by most major news networks, so naturally this would happen. Donald Trump isn't the big meanie that you see on TV. If you want your perspective changed a fair bit I would watch a few of his campaign speeches, the way he communicates and connects his views (regardless of how you see them) is so enamouring that it's easy to see why he had so many followers.

People supported him, but it was very much understated because people weren't speaking about it. Any Trump supporter was called a racist, a bigot, a homophobic, by most people they knew. This is why it was such a shock to the DNC and liberals when he won (that's at least what I think, not the only reason of course).
