London: Trump victory will be influential, says academic
A group of students at the Richmond American University London, in Chiswick, had a mixed reaction to the result.
“I thought Donald Trump was going to win it. I really didn’t want Kamala Harris to win,” said Fawaz Gari, a 26-year-old international relations student.
“Donald Trump, he’s been a pretty decent president.”
Mr Gari, who is from the Middle East, added that he hoped Trump would stop the Israel-Gaza war after 20 of his friends recently died in Palestine.
Also pleased was Bence Dvorszki, a 19-year-old, from Florida: “I was excited – when my Dad sent a screenshot of the election results in the morning, I was genuinely happy.
“My brother said ‘If Kamala wins the election then we’re not going back to the US.’”
