After
Clinton
Concedes,
Trump's Horse
Talk, At UN
Talk of
Bolton, Ban
Silent on
Trump
By Matthew

UNITED
NATIONS,
November 9 --
In New York
City early on
the evening of
November 8,
from the UN on
First Avenue
to Trump Tower
and the
Peninsula
Hotel on Fifth
Avenue (Inner
City Press' Periscope video here),
the assumption
was that
Hilary Clinton
would win.
Then Ohio then
Florida then
finally
Pennsylvania
went Trump.
And at 3 am on
November 9,
after a
concession
call but not
speech by
Hilary
Clinton, Trump
declared
victory (and
compared
Reince to the
bronze statue
of the horse
Secretariat at
Belmont race
track). Now
what?
Some predict
John Bolton as
Secretary of
State. On TV,
they talk of
Newt. More
nitty gritty
some wonder if
someone like
Brett Schaefer
might be UN
Ambasssador.
(The current
UN Ambassador
prepared for a
victory party
- there are
still no post-
or mid-results
photos to
mirror those
from the
Javitz
Center).
In Seoul,
South Korea
issued
statements;
from Ban
Ki-moon,
wannabe South
Korean
president,
there was
nothing yet.
Earlier a
Permanent
Representative
told Inner
City Press,
gesturing at
the UN campus,
If Trump wins,
this is all
over. We shall
cover it, in
detail. Watch
this site.
