Some people are saying the people worried are like the 'OBAMA WILL TURN THE US INTO A MUSLIM CALIPHATE' people. Thing is, AFAIK, Trump actually said the things people are worried about.
And a lot of not very nice people now feel it's acceptable for them to be not very nice. Human empathy feels like it's at an all-time low.
And you might ask why I care? Because, despite the rhetoric of 'Make America Great Again', the USA is one of the most powerful and influential countries out there. Nearly every other country in the western world looks to the US in some way, and even some in the eastern world. If something major happens in the US, the rest of us will hear about it too. When someone like Trump wins - and considering the rhetoric of him and his supporters - there's a lot of good reasons why a good number of people are worried, even those not from the USA. Because a lot of not very people - not just from the US - will feel emboldened to do horrible things.
It's not the end of the world, true. But for a lot of people, it may very well be the end of a safe world.
