Renown businessman, Republican nominee and perhaps the most polarizing figure in the country (let alone Hip Hop pundits), Donald Trump has been elected as the 45th president of the United States.
The road to the Oval Office was a long and historic one for Trump. As the first non-politician to win the presidential office as well as the oldest to ever be elected to the presidency, he faced off against Democratic hopeful Hillary Clinton. The Donald and his running mate, Indiana Governor Mike Pence Mike Pence (R-Ind.) took an early lead in the polls Tuesday (November 8) and capped off the victory by winning the 10 electoral votes from Wisconsin at approximately 2:30 a.m. EST today (November 9) to garner the necessary 270 votes needed.
At approximately 2:10 a.m. EST, Clinton’s camp said she would not speak on the election until the following morning, but she reportedly conceded to Trump on the phone.
Leading up to Election Day, Trump and Clinton endured three debates that had the nation rolling its eyes. Both candidates went through their fair share of scandal as Clinton’s leaked emails haunted her and Trump’s offenses against minorities and women, including the infamous “grab ’em by the pussy” tape, stacked up.
If Clinton had pulled off the victory, she would have become the first woman to be elected president in the history of the country. She had endorsements from Jay Z, Beyonce, Pusha T, Kodak Black and Chance The Rapper. Hov led a rally in the swing state of Ohio last week, but it wasn’t enough for the former Secretary of State to capture the key state as no Republican president has been elected without winning the Buckeye state.
Despite his popularity, many Hip Hop artists took a harsh stance against Trump. YG’s “Fuck Donald Trump” went viral and to continue his campaign, the Compton rapper had fans beat up a Trump piñata at a concert and offered free donuts to those who voted in his hometown. Others to join with anti-Trump sentiments included T.I., Ice Cube and 50 Cent.
Killer Mike said he didn’t vote for either candidate.
Trump, who will officially take the office in January, follows President Barack Obama who was beloved by the Hip Hop community. Chance The Rapper and Frank Ocean attended his last state dinner and, to end his presidency on a high note, Obama hosted a BET party at the White House that featured a playlist of De La Soul, Jill Scott Common, Mobb Deep, among others.

President Trump, pussies! First plan, lock Hilary up and throw away the key. Second plan, send all the Mexicans back below the border and build that wall. Third, bomb the shit out of ISIS. Last, celebrate by grabbing some pussy. #MakeAmericaGreatAgain
The Mexican plan:
1. Occupy back California and Texas
2. Kill every Trump voter
3. Have a taco
Hahahahahaha. Thank only specific black lives matter and idiots like Killer Mike and T.I. For this one. I’m buying in to corporate prison stock, dummies. LOL.
I’m glad he won cuz I’ve never seen an American president lynched and hung.
Yes! Yes! Yes! That means Shkreli is gonna drop that new Wu album now. Can’t wait! Suuuuuuuuuu! And oh yeah, congratulations, Trump.
DX fuck your censorship! You will be a good slave for Trump!
Fuck wu tang, and fuck you n a z i bitch! Trump must be shot.
Americans U R so racist as fuck, blacks go on whites, whites go on blacks, the only thing you see is that mexicans will be thrown and blacks gon be killed. Hillary is weak, i cant imagine how can she lead a 8-12 hour long conversation with Vladimir Putin without medical help to her. Especially for BLACK PEOPLE – it is Hillary who bombed Africa and Middle East and who killed Black and Arab people, so think twice.
Nice grammar. Did the allow you wifi in North Korea? LOL
Did ‘the’ allow you wifi… Stupid Fk.
Glad kodak black gave his endorsement i think thats what sank her
then you’re mental.
Haha nobodys up for sarcasm today huh lol hillary sank herself with all her her husband and her “foundations” constant lies and scandals showing how corrupt the democratic party has become and everyone got away from it which is why literaly republicans had a clean sweep this year that hasnt happened in awhile
lol
anyone who gets supported by jay z is a turd
Hilary and Obama bombed Libya and none of y’all said anything because you didn’t care since it was Africa now you wanna cry like the world did this to y’all.You deserve Trump.
Well this sucks.
The elite and the banks lost. The people have spoken. Hillary Clinton outspent him by 500 million. Used celeberties and everything and still lost. If the Dems let Sanders win it would be a different story.
I totally agree with that last statement, if Bernie would have won the democratic vote it may have been a different story and even a tighter race. Hillary couldn’t shake her e-mails scandals, what she said about black people, and she just wasn’t trusted. Her past hampered her vote, and Bernie didn’t have those problems, that type of past that would have hindered his votes.
Actually the people voted for Hillary. She got 130,000 more votes. Electoral college system can suck it.
He Still won. The states he won with the popular vote had the most electoral votes. She might of had more of the popular vote, but his states had more weight.
VICTORY!
I wonder if his presidency will inspire new material in hip hop.
he will be rapping soon
SORRY BEYONCE. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
MY PRESIDENT IS ORANGE, MY LAMBOS RED. All the A-list celeb endorsements and money spent and she still gets smashed.
allloooooowanccceeee 😀
Don’t blame Donald Trump or “White America” blame the constitution. It clearly states to become President of United States you need to be 35yrs of age, a resident within the U.S. for 14 years and a natural born citizen. Doesn’t say anything about experience so hence why Trump ran and won plus Bernie Sanders supporters wanted to give crooked Hillary one last F.U.
#BackLivesMatter is easily the reason Trump got elected. LOL
Hillary Clinton kills for her own self interest. She killed Gaddafi for trying to unite African nations and have them move away from western/European currency system and start there own currency but Hillary said fuck that I need my checks and I’m not gonna have some sand nigga take that away hence why a fake war against Libya . Her Clinton foundation not once gave any monies to Haiti ask any Haitian. She is only there to get her hands on Haiti oil reserve which is now worth Billions. She is cold hearted. yall can scream white america put Donald in the White House WRONG Americans white, Latino, and blacks put Donald in the White House cause they are tired of politicians focusing on foreign affairs and not on America
my president is white.
Trump all day ! Sorry Hillary you got smoked all the supporters you thought you had lied to your face and voted for the real deal Trump will take this country where it used to be!
“Trump will take this country where it used to be!”
It used to be a British colony
What the fuck does this have to do with Hip Hop?
You upset? Need someone to talk to? Take a deep breath, read the article and look at all the hip hop names.. Hillary took a fat L, get over it.
Trump will be the most gangsta president of all time. Hip hop needs to start supporting this man.
All yall muthafuckaz that supported bitch hillary be ashamed.
obama beloved by the hip hop community?dx staff iz rotten.
what is wrong if a man in his country wants other people to stay in their country to make their country great? when did encouraging people to find peace in other peoples country? i tell you all that if you stay in your country no matter what you’re he realest of all among those who left their father land and think they will be all welcome in other mans land when even where you’re coming from some of your family members don’t like you. my advice to all you unbelievers and greener pasture searchers stay in your country and protest against your government and give your kids a better land in your father land n not another mans land. let your kids know their linage please stop these twist please.
