คนอย่างทรัมป์ชนะได้ยังไง...
หากมองในเบื้องต้น สิ่งที่ทรัมป์เป็น และนโยบายต่างๆ ก็สะท้อนแนวคิดปกติของฝั่ง Republican เก็บภาษีน้อยๆ เน้นธุรกิจขนาดใหญ่ ลดรัฐสวัสดิการ ฯลฯ
แต่ในมิติที่กว้างกว่านั้น ทรัมป์เป็นตัวแทนพรรค Republican คนแรกที่จับเอาประเด็นเรื่องสีผิวและการแบ่งแยกมาใช้เป็นจุดขายอย่างชัดเจน และไม่มีความเขินอายใดๆ

If you look at the preliminary, what trump is and policies reflect the normal concept of Republic side. Collect less tax, focus on large businesses, cuddle states, welfare, etc.
But in a wider dimension, trump represented the first republic party to take the issue of skin color and separation as a point of sale and there is no shame.
If we look away, it may seem that media coming from Hollywood and America invites us to think that racism has become a thing in the past and it's something that America can't accept anymore.
But in reality it never goes away
If anyone has been to be an exchange student in America like I used to, they always find the same question is Thailand is Taiwan? Did she ride elephants to school? Is there all kung fu or Muay Thai? and the meanest and got asked. Tight. Sleep is about Thai service women. (I used to give bank 50 baht to friends. He asked me how many Thai women can buy this)
That's because the world awareness of America is very low. Most of them are outside of the big cities and where most exchange students are often rural America, where white people live in the city I go. There are black people. Haha. 1 GAY PEOPLE AND 3 Asian people. The rest are all white (which I remember seeing that gay guy get sneaked in the cafeteria)
These people have never seen how complex and deep civilizations are, never seen how many others in the world are.
Most of their lives walk around in small towns with a few malls, fast food stores with the picture in their head that's the best of the world. This is "America" and that's what the whole world should be because His whole life has heard that.
Tight that's not all American people. We have seen so many cool art and innovations coming out of this country that we can't help but wonder if the smart enough to create these things. Why not smart enough to elect another president instead.
But that's half of America that we the world have a chance to see through media, America who is leading the world culture, America who travel to countries around the world. America who invented technology has changed the world.
The other half of America I mentioned before, even exist, but the world doesn't have a chance to see because it's America. The part that doesn't connect with villagers and wouldn't have touched it if they were never really been there.
Trump elected is actually not unexpected because the most clearly and straightforward reflects America, and it's always in the heart. Just might be balanced with the better side of America. These haters. So I don't dare to come out. I'm sailing in the notice.
But the terror starts after this when racism and racial divide are endorsed by the highest power in the land.
This link shows things that happened just 1 days after trump elected president.

I have watched it and thought of many things I met in high school in America, which is no different than in movies, where little ones were bullied, where different people were teased and mocked.
And after this, it looks like the whole country is turning into a large high school that the principal has allowed that pretending to be friends is not
So scary
And the cracks are clearly showing up
Maybe this is truly the degeneration of this country...Translated
