Donald Trump has won the race to become the 47th president of the United States and is expected to be declared the president-elect.
US-based Kenyan preacher Esther Muthoni Muteti has castigated the surprising support for Donald Trump among Kenyans, despite his historically restrictive stance on immigration. This discourse emerges in response to a TUKO survey revealing significant Kenyan backing for the Republican candidate over current administration figures, including Vice President Kamala Harris. The reach of US electoral politics extends far beyond American shores, particularly resonating in nations like Kenya where many view America as a beacon of opportunity.
Muthoni's social media intervention raises a critical question about the seeming contradiction between Kenyans' immigration aspirations and their political allegiances. Her message challenges supporters to consider whether they have fully contemplated the implications of their endorsement. The debate touches upon deeper issues within immigration policy discourse. During Trump's previous administration, initiatives targeting immigration reform, including attempts to dismantle DACA, created an atmosphere of uncertainty for foreign nationals.
His "America First" rhetoric and policy decisions often cast immigrants, particularly those without documentation, in an unfavourable light. Muthoni's commentary specifically addresses the potential consequences of a Trump victory for Kenyan immigrants, both current and prospective. She questions whether supporters understand that they might be advocating for policies that could result in deportations. The survey highlight a complex dynamic within Kenyan society, where support for Trump exists alongside widespread aspirations for American opportunities.
This juxtaposition is particularly notable among young professionals and others seeking economic advancement through migration to the United States. However, this support appears to conflict with the practical implications of Trump's historical approach to immigration policy.

Beautiful,
We prayed for rain, now let's deal with the mud.
Even in Kenya aren't people surviving with Ruto?
So what, let all in America deal with it.
The good thing is, it will affect all, Democrats, Republicans, independents etc... especially working folks everyone above poverty line.
First of all Esther l believe that you can not be a true believer and vote for the democrats that's impossible unless you read a different Bible from the true word of God.
They're Supporting Trump because Biden supports mwizi Ruto.
RUTO MUST GO.
Kenyans elected Ruto with all his baggage. They knew his character, messes and crimes yet cast a vote for him. The fact that they support Trump does not surprise me. Corrupt people elect corrupt leaders. Trump once called you, shit-hole countries. May be that’s who you are and you support him for it.
