The Chronicles of the Victory of Donald J. Trump



A seismic shift for the United States and the world for that matter, with the ascent of Donald Trump the White House, the Republican riding the vote of the rust belt states that wasn't so much of a path as an expressway to the White House.

Leaving the Democrats in shock as to how their vote failed to deliver Hillary Clinton to what they believed was another four years of progressive rule and the rest of the world to wonder where exactly they may fit into the New World that is about to arrive on global political stage.

Canada and Mexico for that matter, perhaps more than most countries have the most to consider as the new Republican administration heads for Washington, a theme that was prevalent in much of the news accounts of the Tuesday vote and its conclusions.

The reaction from around the world makes for a fascinating review of the historic events of Tuesday night, with many a front page offering up a striking visual image of how the election unfolded.

Below, some of those notes, culled from a range of Canadian media sources.
