Now that Donald J. Trump won, What’s Next?

After the victory for Donald J. Trump , What’s the next for America?

The victory of Donald J. Trump has set the political world on its end. Never has such an untested and unlikely candidate captured the presidency, and no one in modern times has entered the office with his plans for governing so uncertain.

Mr. Trump promised vaguely during the campaign that he could act presidential at the right time. That time has finally come, and Mr. Trump must now begin the hard work of assembling an administration and seeking broad political acceptance in a way he never did as a candidate.

He is now elected as President of the United States, but he won’t become president until a ceremony on 20 January 2017.

This ceremony is known as his inauguration, where he will be officially sworn in as president.

Until then, Trump will be known as President-Elect, and the months between now and January are known as the ‘lame duck’ months.

That’s because nobody can get much done in that time, because no one has any real power.

Donald Trump and his team will spend this time preparing for his presidency and making sure that the changeover goes smoothly.
