Donald Trump leads Hillary Clinton 150-109 in the race to 270 electoral votes. Trump has won the state of Missouri, as expected, the AP projects. Ten more electoral votes for Trump. The immediate impact: On 9/11 the Dow fell 540 points. Right now its down 680 points

Dear Renuka,

Why drag me into American politics? If he can do good to America and the world I will be happy too
 
To Ray Sundar.... I am so happy for you that Trump won!

Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice!


I feel people want a President who isnt afraid to speak his mind.

All the stories about his remarks on women clearly only added to his popularity.

Bad Boys make better leaders cos they know their way around everything.

My God! You are so happy I will be in trouble? Not good thoughts
 
Trump's victory speech was sober. We can expect something different from America as he is also unconventional provided he remains sober.
 
You have got the Trump Card, Sravna Sir! :thumb:

Trump will remain sober by your spiritual powers!! :angel:
 


Record 5 Indian-Americans Set To Be Elected To US Congress

WASHINGTON: An unprecedented 'desi' wave hit the US general elections as a record number of five Indian-Americans were all set to be elected to the US Congress today.

Indian-American women put up a good show in the 2016 elections, with Kamala Harris, 51, a two-term attorney general from California, creating history by winning the US Senate seat from the state.

Pramila Jayapal, 51, won the Congressional seat from Seattle to enter the House of Representatives, the first Indian-American woman to accomplish this feat.

Ms Jayapal would be joined in the House of Representatives by Raja Krishnamoorthi, who made it to the highest citadel of democracy in their second attempt.

Ro Khanna and Ami Bera were leading in the race for the House of Representatives from their districts in California.

With 56 per cent of the votes counted in California's Silicon Valley, Democratic Congressman Bera was leading with 54 per cent votes at 47,427, ahead of his Republican party rival Scott Jones who got 46 per cent votes.

If elected for the third successive term, Mr Bera would become the longest serving Indian-American Congressman ever.

Mr Khanna, the democratic party candidate from California's 17th District, was leading with 58 per cent votes at 50,952 after 72 per cent of the votes were counted.

His closest rival Mike Honda, also of the Democratic Party, had so far garnered 42 per cent of the votes.


Interestingly, the outgoing US President Barack Obama had endorsed Harris, Krishnamoorthi and Bera.

Senator Bernie Sanders and former US President Jimmy Carter had endorsed Ms Jayapal.


Mr Harris, who was born in Oakland, California, is the daughter of an Indian mother who emigrated from Chennai in 1960 and a Jamaican American father.

California Democrats had overwhelmingly endorsed Harris for US Senate, solidifying her front-runner status in the race to become California's next Senator.

Endorsing Mr Harris, Obama had said "Kamala Harris fights for us. Thats why I am so proud to endorse her for United States Senator.

And if you send her to the Senate, she'll be a fearless fighter for the people of California, all the people of California, every single day."

Ms Jayapal entered the US Congress on her maiden try. Born in Chennai, she left India at the age of five for Indonesia, Singapore and eventually for the US.

Ms Jayapal says her life transformed for the better after she spent some time in India when she returned to the country after a gap of 25 years in April 1995.

Her book-- "Pilgrimage to India: A Woman Revisits Her Homeland" was published in 2000

So the answer to the question posed in OP is a resounding no! Good wishes to the President elect & the people of USA!!
 
On Saturdays in synagogues across the United States, Jews recite a prayer for our country. In my synagogue, the custom is that the congregation stands, and says the prayer in unison.
Our God and God of our ancestors: We ask Your blessings for our country — for its government, for its leaders and advisers, and for all who exercise just and rightful authority. Teach then insights from Your Torah that they may administer all affairs of state fairly, that peace and security, happiness and prosperity, justice and freedom may forever abide in our midst.
Until Donald Trump’s run for the presidency, this moment in the liturgy felt like boilerplate. It was a nice expression of patriotism; certainly, in the edgy days after Sept. 11, our country felt in need of joint and fervent prayer. But its exhortations to justice and tolerance seemed superfluous. No one could disagree with them.
Until Trump, and Trump’s divisive rhetoric, upended the assumption that politicians of both parties share an essential platform of agreement on matters of basic decency, of respect for those of other religions and backgrounds.

And until Trump’s election made the prayer for our country all the more relevant — and all the more imperative.

Now Trump has been elected, which means he will be exercising, in the words of the prayer, “rightful authority” — authority that the voters granted him, even if he would not have accepted the outcome had it gone against him.

Whether Trump’s tenure will be just is another matter. That remains a dangerously open question about which we can only pray for our country, more fervently than ever. And hope that our other leaders, in Congress and the courts, will be strong enough to safeguard our ideals and free institutions during the potentially perilous course of the Trump presidency.
