We can never say for sure, but why should we be surprised if it did happen? Won't Trump ban Muslims as promised? Won't he build the wall? Whether we like it or not this the new reality in America. These chants cannot be concealed for much longer because this sentiment exists.
I think these are all good signs as we may now be reverting back to the long-weakened Westphalian nation state. Multiculturalism in extreme porous form is better be stopped because it breeds social uncohesiveness and creates pockets of areas with social ills are abundant.
The political correctness of not calling a terrorist a terrorist, but some sort of angry youth or freedom fighter may now be stopped.
No more every unhappy group of people deserving a state of their own.
I began to sympathize with Trump's ideas when he clearly referred to himself as being anti-globalist. The MSM has subdued most of his messages, but, he has very strong opinion of nation state and cultural clarity.
Perhaps, with Trump elected, the old regionalism is entirely dead (EU's disintegration might speed up). Now, the room is more open for new regionalism such as the OBOR.
