Yesterday, real estate tycoon Donald J. Trump became the 45th president of the United States, the first to win the office without any prior political or military experience. The results were stunning because all polls and predictions ahead of time had Hillary Clinton ahead.
The news sent shockwaves throughout the whole world and various rock and metal personalities have posted their reactions. Here are some we gathered from social media:

Do yourself a favor: find some friends in the black/latino/LGBT+ communities tonight. They're going to need your help- possibly protection.

I never voted for anyone, I simply congratulated our 45th President. I would have done that regardless of the outcome.
