Donald Trump trumped, Congratulation, America, Japan and rest of the world!

Not totally bad news for all of us in the world.

For Americans it is a great chance to liberate from establishment politics and two lookalike-party system.

For Japan, liberate from Americanism and U.S. military presence, especailly good for Okinawa island. He promised no more TPP and withdrawing US troops from bases in Japan. I like that since I have been engaged in protest activities against US military base presence including nuclear aircraft carrier in Yokosuka and new marine base construction in Okinawa. Please check posts in nuclear aircraft carrier and Okinawa tags. But above all, greatest thing is that we no longer see America as superpower or role model in the sense that such a man was elected as President.

So do people of the world.

America has great things such as Hollywood films, Apple Ipads, Hilton Hotels and so on. I got college education in America 2 decades ago. It was an excellent experience and that is why I have good command of English and write posts like here.

But at the same time I learnt America is not a role model for the world. America is not a model society. I remember a Japanese woman who was married to American man and settled in California, said so. She always said she wanted to go back to Japan. She and I attended the same college in Northern California.

Her boyfriend, who she married later was like Trump. He could be friend to Japanese but not to Blacks and Chinese.

It is rooted from his experience in his highschoolhood in San Francisco, where most of students were Blacks and Chinese, which made him minority in school. He was bullied and decided to quit the school and instead study at home and entered college without high school diploma.

White people around me seemed non-racist but in fact were racist when they could speak honestly. Books on IQ difference between whites and Blacks became best selling, which describes whites are more intelligent than Blacks not by education but gene.

Black people were offended and said they were still at war even after civil rights act era.

Some of Black people were kind of militant complainer, who use their race as a card to promote themselves. Mexican undocumented immigrants caused problems such as burgarly and theft. My college dormitory roommate often shouted "Fucking minorities." Poor young Latino had several children although they could earn very small income.

America is free and multi-national society. That is why such things happen.

Not just economy but complexity of the society drove such phenomenon.

America is still a great nation but not a role model which every nation should follow suit.  

The world leant that thanks to Donal Trump.

 

P.S. Did you know in Japan, name "Trump" is used as a noun to indicate 52 Cards like 1 through 10 and Jack, Queen, King of Diamond, Klover, Spade, and Heart plus a Joker, which coincides with Mr. Trump's business.

So when we say "let's play Trump" it means "let's play cards"?

Why not play this "Trump"?
