I suspect most of his (poorly educated) acolytes will continue to be mesmerized as usual while everything is going up in flames. We'll wait, as Colonel Taylor would say. Trump's arrogance and ignorance will not serve him well in his new position.
I didn't vote in this election although I'm still officially a US citizen. I didn't like either of the final choices, (still don't care for the winner) and I too feel the election was fucked with; either on home soil or by outside sources. I am concerned about Trump's lack of political experience, but since I will not be an American citizen in a couple of years, I'm not going to run around with loose bowels and wringing my hands. His background as an arrogant, entitled, asshole doesn't bother me either; I ignored him before, I can ignore him now.
I am concerned about the few living relatives I have left, but they're on up in years, and they're not concerned with what America's future under Trump will produce.
I am concerned about the future of my friends, and how Trump's presidency will affect them as far as the effects of a dismantled Obamacare; they were doing fine before the ACA; it's implementation damned near ruined some of them financially, so now we have to wait and see what effects it's dismantling will have on the American citizens healthcare and pocketbook. The damn insurance companies found a convenient loophole somewhere and found a way to royally screw the American people. If Trump can find a way (or pay someone to) to tear up the ACA and make insurance more affordable, then he MIGHT gain a little more of my respect.
