How Did Donald Trump Win His Election

The New York Times columnist David Brooks calls it “the greatest political shock of our lifetime.” At the end of August, it seemed as though Donald Trump was destined to fail in his bid to become the 45th President of the United States. After months of new revelations of sexual harassments and use of vulgar language, spectators of the political sport were almost certain that Secretary Clinton would win, and then that fateful day came. Everyone, including some of Donald Trump’s most ardent supporters were shocked at the outcome of the election, leaving many to ask how such a thing could happen. While still shocking, ideas and concepts learned in the Election the President seminar have helped to explain the process, the results, and even the candidates themselves.

Many citizens of the country were outraged and shocked to find that Donald Trump would be our new president. A lot of people started walking down streets, walking out of schools, some even causing a bit of violence. Whether we like it or not Donald will be our new president; many would have different opinions on how he managed to win the election. Three of those important reasons are because there was a low voter turnout, the electoral college, and because of Hillary's email incident.

In my opinion, Gore won the election of 2000 if there hadn’t been any interference, had also recounted all the votes, and also counted the 175,000 uncounted ballots. I believe that Gore would of won the election but didn't because of several mistakes and interventions the Republican party had in the election in Florida. One of the tremendous errors was caused by the lady in charge of writing the ballot, she had placed Al Gore’s name next to another candidate causing chaos between the voters who believed that they had voted for the other candidate instead of Al Gore. Therefore, causing Gore to lose votes.Another reason I believe he lost the election was because of the interference Katherine Harris had in the votes. She did this when she

The US Supreme Court inserted itself into a state issue and declared Bush president by a majority of conservatives vote of 5-4. The Supreme Court elected Bush because of a problem with the number of votes in Florida. Al Gore definitely won the popular vote, but no one really knows who won the electoral vote. Whichever candidate win in the State of Florida, win the presidency because the 25 electoral votes were the most important vote.

On the morning of November 9, 2016 the great citizens of this country discovered that Donald J. Trump won presidential election. His win would set off a firestorm of protests against his victory and against the archaic process that carried Trump to victory; the Electoral College. However, what followed was people from all over complaining about how Trump won the Electoral College and how come if Clinton won the popular vote that she didn’t become the first woman president. In my quest to understand the voting process, I learned there are many people that find the whole election process to complicated and are not even the slightest bit interested in learning what part the people play in electing the president.

George Bush carried the Southern states and also secured wins in Ohio, Indiana, most of the rural Midwestern farming states, most of the Rocky Mountain states, and Alaska. Al Gore balanced Bush by winning most of the Northeastern United States, most of the Upper Midwest, and all of the Pacific Coast states of Washington, Oregon, and California, and even carried Hawaii. Wisconsin and Iowa, were extremely close; however it was the state of Florida that would decide the winner of the election. As the final national results were tallied the following morning, George Bush had clearly won a total of 246 electoral votes, while Gore had won 255 votes. 270 votes were needed to win. Mathematically, Florida's 25 electoral votes became the key to an election

George W. Bush stated “Five years ago, I stood at this rostrum and called on the community of nations to defend civilization and build a more hopeful future (Address by President George W. Bush: Appendix 1).” American citizens had faith and hope in Bush that he would help benefit America. Bush gave his word to America that he is going to aid America the best he can so when he won the election for the second time America had faith in him. “Americans will have a new president, national security adviser, secretary of state, trade ambassador, Senate, and House of Representatives (Reed, James).” The United States government is based on its president therefore the election is very important because it determines who will be running the country for the next 4 years. Becoming the president will have a very large impact on what goes on in the country such as wars, laws, and more. America is very dependent on their leader therefore when the election of 2000 became such a significant problem much of America was at worry.

According to the article, President-elect Trump won Tuesday’s night Presidential Election. First, Donald Trump won because he was helped by a depressed voter turnout, which always helps Republicans. Second, Hillary Clinton received the most votes in the presidential election, a higher percentage than Richard Nixon received in 1968, and Bill Clinton in 1992 but does not mean she won the whole election. Finally, another reason why Trump won is because prices for Obamacare increased substantially in some key states, including Arizona, just weeks before the election. This happened on Elecetion Day after results were officialy

History often repeats itself. The crazy part about that idea is that people tend to overreact as if they had never seen such a thing. The recent election was a grueling one. There was a mass of controversy surrounding the two candidates. There was no perfect choice this year. There was a hated democratic candidate and a even more hated republican candidate. What many people forgot to look into was the idea that the United States had just had a democratic president serve two terms in office. In historic fashion, after something like this happens the country has more than likely went with the other political party in search of change. Donald Trump is surely to be a great indicator of change, one way or the other.

The answer is simple and has already been answered, Donald Trump winning the election has caused something called the Trump effect. According to Politico Magazine, American therapist are worried about Trump’s effect on our mental heath as it has caused a spike in bullying and distress that both teachers and psychiatrist are noticing amongst students and patients (Sheehy, 2016).

If I had to pick one of the presidential candidates to talk to I would chose Donald Trump. Even though Donald Trump isn't who I would vote for if I was old enough to do so, he would still be the candidate I would want to talk to the most. I feel like most people who are against Donald Trump would drill him with questions about why he does what he does and why he says the occasional offensive things that he says, but I wouldn't. Yes, I would ask him certain questions like that, but I wouldn't want that to be the focal point of our conversation. Most days in school people talk about how much they don't like Donald Trump and how if he becomes president the will move to Canada and sometimes the even say things along the lines of thinking there will be a presidential assassination if he becomes president.

Donald Trump is slowly releasing all the corruption there is in politics and it is upsetting the future of a small handful of bad people that want to stay in control and make their further millions. Unfortunately, these bad people cause a trickle-down effect to many of the good people in politics. These bad people also have enough media access and power to make others believe Donald is the bad person. They can also prevent him from becoming president.

The race to the White House came with an unprecedented win by the Republican nominee,Donald Trump.Trump won because he was a famous and a successful business mogul, and people knew that if he was successful in the business industry,he would be a successful leader for our country.
