Whether it is the very close race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, the 10% customs tariffs promised by the Republican candidate or the aggressiveness expressed throughout the campaign, there are many reasons for people here to watch the results of the American presidential election.
Several citizens agreed to talk about their interest in this race for the White House.
Here are some testimonials collected by TVA Nouvelles:
– “There will be a commotion if it’s Trump, that’s obvious, but both of them are protectionists. So it’s going to be a bit more of the sameas they say.”
– “Trump’s speeches are not a gift. We will see on Tuesday what will happen.”
– “It’s more on an economic level, it’s perhaps not on a daily level as such, but yes, we will follow it closely.”
– “Of course we get along well with the Democrats. The Republicans, we’ll see what happens, but we don’t know. It’s a surprise box!”
– “Let’s say that Trump is already worrying. For everything, towards women, towards immigration, towards everything. I would stay away from him if I were American.”
– “Kamala, I hope she comes home. Let the Americans wake up a little! A woman is as good as a man! Let them deny themselves a little!”
