Even the NYtimes knows XSM is gonna win due to massive amounts of money he received from Turkey and UAE to buy off votes.

"It might seem strange that Somalia, one of the poorest, most neglected countries in the world, would be such a hotbed of geopolitics.
But according to diplomats, the Emirates and Qatar are backing different candidates here in a rivalry over the Muslim Brotherhood, while Egypt and Ethiopia are supporting different candidates because of their duel over the Nile. And Sudan is supporting certain political figures to keep its access to Somali intelligence services, which also work with the C.I.A. That way, analysts said, Sudan could spy on what the Americans in Somalia were doing."
Interesting.
Wonder what would happen if Trump cuts off aid.

If Trump cuts off the aid its the best thing that ever happened to Somalia, China would come on that position, all the corrupt leaders and warlords would escape the country.
