Rebecca Coulson: Watch Trump like a hawk. Focus on the essentials. Judges should restrain him, women should sue him.

Watch what he says, and what he does – not what we think he means, represents, or how he comes across.

Lord Ashcroft: What do the voters expect from Trump? My new poll of 10,000 Americans reveals all.

Will he make America great again? What is more important – jobs or building the wall? And why do Democrats think Hillary lost?

Rebecca Coulson: Does voting Trump mean that you must be racist and sexist?

Perhaps the 60 million Americans who backed him simply thought other factors were more important. But is that judgement bigoted in itself?

Lord Ashcroft: Now the Left blames the voters for America’s result – an arrogance that helps to show why it lost

The now-President-elect talked about his Scottish connexions, previous political experience – and how Romney could win if he were “tougher”.

Nadhim Zahawi: Clinton didn’t lose because of racism or sexism. She lost because she had nothing new to offer
