While Liberal left all around the world either moaning or cursing as Donald Trump got inaugurated as the 45th President of the United States, the right wing parties and their leaders in Europe are cheering. It sparked an array of cheerful reactions.
- Geert Wilders, head of the Party of Freedom, Netherlands said, “"The world is changing. America is changing. Europe is changing. It started last year with Brexit, yesterday there was Trump and today the freedom-loving parties gathered in Koblenz are making a stand. The genie will not go back into the bottle again, whether you like it or not. The people of the West are awakening. They are throwing off the yoke of political correctness."
- France’s National Front’s leader Marine Le Pen said, "We are living through the end of one world, and the birth of another. We are experiencing the return of nation-states. 2016 was the year the Anglo-Saxon world woke up. 2017, I am sure, will be the year in which the peoples of the European continent rise up."
- Nigel Farage, leader of the UK Independence Party, who successfully led the Brexit campaign said, “There is a genuine feeling that Trump taking over the White House is part of a bigger, global movement. Our critics, looking at Trump's candidacy and his speech yesterday, would call it the rise of populism. I would say it's simply a return to nation state democracy and proper values. For this inauguration is not just a change from the 44th President to the 45th President of the United States. This is a genuine political revolution.”
The Liberals are preparing to harden their stance towards the United States of America and Donald Trump. This year, three major European countries; Netherlands, Germany, and France are going to the elections and the outcomes would very well define the coming years.
