Many net Safronis from India are rooting for Trump it would be interesting to see their reaction now
He may be good for the US economy and internal politics but on a global scale his proposed policies will create new trouble in already troubled regions
His campaign is based on fear and resentment of the population and he is channeling it on outsiders it will work for elections but he will not be a very good diplomat and his hawkish policies may cause new tensions in already tense Mid East and South China Sea region.Personally, I think he is a megalomaniacal jackass, who is not a real conservative, not a real Republican Party member, but he has tapped into a deep seething anger among a large sector of the American people. I don't know if it's enough for him to beat Sen. Clinton in November, but it's out there, and one can feel it. People are pissed.
The way to look at Trump is to understand that unlike many other democracies, America has only two very large, "catch-all" political parties. (We still have dozens of minor ones that are on every ballot, but Americans just don't vote for them.) So Sen. Bernie Sanders, Hillary's rival, belonged to a regional socialist party, but "caucuses" sits with the Democratic Party. Just as Trump is really, just using the Republican Party. He is really the American version of say, France's National Front, or the Netherlands' Party of Freedom.
