STORY – Electrified supporters, rallied rivals, resigned adversaries… Donald Trump's America, act II
Four years after his departure from Washington DC, Trump returned, triumphant, to the federal capital. He had been a newcomer, isolated, poorly prepared in January 2017, for his first inauguration, at the start of his first mandate. This star of reality TV and the New York tabloid press was seen as almost a usurper by the Washington political establishment.
Four years after Donald Trump left the White House, it is Joe Biden's mandate that seems like an anomaly. By winning his re-election, this time with the majority of the popular vote as well as that of the electoral college, Trump leaves his mark on the history of the United States.
Like the popular and democratic revolution of Andrew Jackson in 1830, that of Abraham Lincoln and the Republican domination after the Civil War, the New Deal of Franklin Roosevelt, the Great Society of Lyndon Johnson or the conservative revolution of Ronald Reagan in the 1980s, the Maga revolution led to a profound realignment of American politics.
