But results of this election have pleased some while hurting others. I am personally not very much interested with the result as such but my concern is more on the outcome of such results.

To some extent I tend to think that this could harm african economies given the fact that Trump has been more inward looking person who in my view would not like to be associated with some external agents unless they add more values to the American economy.

On the other hand I think American economy is likely to shake a bit. The fact that Trump is unpredictable man makes it hard for some investors to predict how he is going to operate after taking office. The loss of confidence may reduce the demand for US dollar and thus forcing it come down . Though this could be a temporary situation but will inevitably help developing countries to take advantage of this situation.

In the great recession of 1932 was blamed on protectionism and we are witnessing history echoing itself.

Africa needs good governance but less handouts we are nowhere near to satisfying local demand let alone exporting abroad.

Trump foreign policies seem mixed: detente to Russia may avert a third global war but slapping Chinese exports with 45% tax will invoke a trade war which America will lose. African continent will benefit if he follows his campaign rhetoric to root out graft.

But as we are now told Obamacare will stay despite electoral promise to repeal shows the gulf between wishful thinking and harsh reality

We need laws which criminalizes nepotism

No public servant can oversee appointment or promotion of relatives in his docket

Nepotism is widespread and destructive

Rutashubanyuma · Nov 12, 2016

Claims of "my relatives are highly qualified" do not address the overriding factor of subjectivity of those decisions, conflict of interests and a slap on the back of an euphonious aspiration of equal opportunity to all.

If Obama care remains intact despite change of leadership that has happened, could this mean Trump never meant what he said? Can this be used as a case study to many of his promises?

I presume we all agree on this but the question is how are we going to get such laws?

I thought it is very easy. We only need one MP to introduce this bill in the parliament of which I will blithely write if asked to.

Lenin must be turning in his grave when he sees the recoiling imperial power from global engagements

Rutashubanyuma · Nov 13, 2016

What has changed?

Rutashubanyuma · Nov 13, 2016

It is access to technology which has weakened USA position as an imperial power

Not only USA but also Europe symbolized by Brexit

Rutashubanyuma · Nov 13, 2016

International trade combined with higher taxes has led to exodus of technology, jobs and incomes overseas
