Donald Trump, le « phoenix » au “giant charisma”succeeded in waking up American voters. Fervent worshipers of the far right and its fellow travelers, CNews journalists like to make a fuss about it. So, the election of Donald Trump, imagine… Between two best-ofs of the “best moments” of the Republican campaign, the channel ventures into analysis. The president-elect has the gift of entering “in communion with an entire population”engages Harold Hyman, international journalist for Vincent Bolloré's channel. “Such is the case of religious people who are accustomed” to have in front of them “something bigger »he continues. “I really like his dreams of grandeur”admires journalist Elisabeth Lévy, reference to Donald Trump's slogan (Make America Great Again): “I wonder if the people of Europe can be inhabited by this same dream… To restore this taste for the national. »
After the praise and deification, the time has come to dismantle all the criticisms expressed towards the 47e president of the United States. “Fascist and populist”Really ? No. And not racist either, says CNews. Donald Trump only “grew up in a time where attitudes (that he could have had) were not considered as such. When the president says that he “loves black people a lot” or “look at Asian Americans with their chopsticks”, it’s just that he doesn’t have woke culture”theorizes Harold Hyman: “Not everyone is politically correct. Trump speaks to a lot of people. »
Added to the mockery is misogyny
In front, “the woke left is at half mast”sneers presenter Sonia Mabrouk, citing tweets from French personalities like Marine Tondelier, Yannick Jadot and Sandrine Rousseau: “This hell that is looming”, “I am thinking of the future victims of Trumpist delusions, from the depths of the United States to the Ukrainian front”, “The United States is the scene of a climate-skeptical, masculinist and racist backlash supported and encouraged by the actors of a liberal economy, eager for profit. » How funny these gauchos are! Added to the mockery is misogyny. For the spokesperson for the Republicans in France, Philippe Karsenty, Kamala Harris would be like this “the intersection of Anne Hidalgo on the intellectual level – but with the added sneers”and would look like “Sandrine Rousseau at the economic level”.
All components of the extreme right are invited to the festivities. Julien Odoul therefore arrives on the set. The National Rally deputy welcomes Donald Trump's xenophobic policies. Supporting video extract. “We are finally going to close the borders. There must be immigrants, but they must be legal”declared the American president, after the proclamation of the results. But presenter Jean-Marc Morandini notes that Trump “is gentler than before, he’s not an extremist – he doesn’t shoot immigrants”. Formidable.
In line with his American model, Julien Odoul praises his own program, which we understand to be Trumpo-compatible: “These are individuals who choose to go to a country to adopt its customs, values (…) to respect the culture of the country in which they are welcomed. At the RN, we are delighted to welcome those who want to associate themselves with the French nation. » In short, “good” immigrants, who do not flinch, are welcome. To close this great moment of political celebration, CNews broadcasts a fake video generated by Artificial Intelligence, where we see Donald Trump dancing alongside his billionaire friend Elon Musk, to the sound of « Stayin’Alive » of the Bee Gees. Unfortunately, everything else is real.
