A second night of protests in the United States against President-elect Donald Trump has turned violent in Portland, Oregon, as thousand of demonstrators took to the streets in the city, smashing car windows destroying shops.
He was not predicted to win, although the polls anticipated that it would be a close race. But to the surprise, nay, shock of many people in the United States and around the world, by Wednesday morning, Donald Trump, the Republican Party candidate, had cruised safely to a historic presidential election victory, which has left pundits stunned.
Donald Trump will become the 45th US president after a stunning victory over Democrat Hillary Clinton, in what many analysts have described as a Brexit-Style Upset.
It is a historic election in many ways. It is the first time a woman is elected presidential nominee of a major political party. The race is between her and Donald Trump, the billionaire Republican candidate who defied every prediction to win the nomination of the Republican Party.
The United States’ Federal Bureau of Investigation, FBI, has once again exonerated Hilary Clinton of any crime with regards to the latest scrutiny of a new set of emails linked to the former secretary of state.
