After Donald Trump secured the Republican nomination on Tuesday night, the BBC rounded up the reactions from the global press to Trump's victory. Aside from some gloating in authoritarian Russia and China, the reaction was pretty shocked.

"The craziest US presidential election campaign begins," Germany's Die Welt daily wrote. "The unthinkable has come to pass."

These are the same people who loved Obungo before and right after he was elected. Apparently they have forgotten the connection between Obie’s middle east policy and the current “refugee” nightmare they are experiencing.

The biggest fear about Trump is what happened in the forty year old mini-series “Captains and the Kings”. Watch his back!

I am no fan of Trump. But I do remember how hysterical the liberals here, and the rest of the world became when Reagan was elected.

Investment tip..., invest in Kimberly-Clark (the manufacturer of "DEPENDS" adult diapers! There will be a surge in liberals purchasing such products as it become apparent that Trump will win the Presidency!

On the other hand..., there could be a requirement to prove that you voted for the Donald in order to purchase them...???

LOL, I admit I am to the point where anything that causes Euroweenies or liberals in general, discomfort or angst, I am for it most of the time.

but the world depends on America to be the exact opposite of that......Maybe those that make up “the world”, should become a bit less dependant?

We have an Eastern European friend the wife met on facebook. She wanted to hunt and fish, as it is forbidden in her country. She has visited us two years in a row to do these things. Last night she messages the wife and says she is worried we are electing the next hitler. Had to set her straight. Told her that is what the media et al want everyone to believe. She also buys into man made global warming.

More elitist tears.

It’s too bad that the voice of the average person in these nations are not what we are hearing, because I’m thinking we have a lot of notes we could compare.

No. I think the elite class and their lackeys are afraid of Donald Trump. Big Diff.

Check out how the rest of the world's reacting.

How about No. I care not of "the world". I care about America, which is how you can easily identify a leftist article written by a leftist author with a leftist agenda: they care what "the world" thinks.

Trump is no Reagan, but all his opponents are acting like he is. And that is a good thing.

My Mom is from the Old Country and was frightened by the Muslim invasion, but not enough to get over her fright of Donald Trump.

But I’m doing a little happy dance, because after rejecting Jeb!, loving Carson (doctor fetish) and then “supporting” Cruz, she just informed me minutes ago she cast her mail-in ballot for Trump. One more for the Gipper :)

P.S. : Regarding her “support” for Cruz, she lives in a Very Secure high end assisted retirement home that requires you identify yourself to a switchboard operator before they connect you to a resident’s apartment...and apparently someone in the Cruz campaign identified themselves as my brother in order to ring her up and put the bite on her. Thankfully she only gave them $50. In exchange they sent her a copy of Cruz’ book, “A Time for Truth”.

I believe that says it all.

If Trump wins, on the Inaugural Day when he takes an oath I hope someone takes pictures of any trash left behind. NOT anything I anticipate like it was for the Bammy Party takeover and truck loads of refuse.
