No change in US policy

Addressing his party's national convention on Thursday, US Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said he will restore the feeling of safety US people fear they're losing and vowed to put the United States first and replace globalism with "Americanism".

No matter how negatively people look upon him, he is viewed as "candid" by many, because he at least points out some of the issues that are plaguing the US, such as poverty and violence, immigration and terrorism, as well as its economic woes and shortage of jobs.

Trump was at first considered an "entertainment figure" by the US elite, but his success has been voicing the discontent of middle- and lower-class voters better than other Republican candidates.
