His character, the incarnation of the strong man pushed to the extreme, was seductive. His incredible ability to react, seen live and immortalized during the assassination attempt against him in July, transformed him into a myth, that of an invincible man, point raised, surviving the bullets of an assassin.
Donald Trump ended his campaign as he led it
Women’s values, morals, democracy and reproductive rights were no match for this sum. Purchasing power, fear of foreigners, overpowering president candidate.
Donald Trump ended his campaign as he led it. By thanking his fans, but insulting his opponents and telling lies. If we believe what he has been saying for months, his election is very bad news for many. He announced that he would take revenge on his enemies, and there are many of them. He promised a mass deportation of illegal immigrants. He promised women to protect them even against their own will, an allusion to the ban on abortion that came back in force following his action, thus insulting half of the American population considered incapable of deciding for themselves. about his body. He described an America “great again” turned in on itself and divided.
The place of the United States in the world is no more engaging: that of a power in the image of this caricatured president: selfish, focused on itself and its own interests, devoid of any sense of responsibility on the multilateral plan.
Elon Musk, the danger
Donald Trump announced the abandonment of investments in renewable energies, a reduction of American commitments on the climate plan and that he questioned American financial commitments within NATO, while the war rages in Ukraine and in the Middle East. Without forgetting the increase in customs duties and a promise of a trade war with its main competitor, China. A protectionist movement that will harm the global economy.
Elon Musk, the uncontrollable and extremely wealthy agitator in chief, is in ambush. It will continue its action of disinformation without limit, beyond any control, and will probably take on a new role, mixing genres between the private and the public.
What ramparts will the institutions be against these abuses? Trump’s actions over the past months have already increased the president’s room for maneuver. In June, the U.S. Supreme Court removed almost all limits on executive authority. The president thus enjoys criminal immunity for almost all “official acts” he performs in the exercise of his functions.
Building a better world, with others
If we believe certain observers who have practiced it and based on his first presidency, it is still possible to think that Donald Trump will not do everything he announced. He spoke in a caricatured way to his electorate, with a megaphone and combat sports stars to get elected. There is no guarantee that he will take action; that would probably mean opening too many fronts at the same time and putting himself in needless difficulty.
The most optimistic way to view the election of the 47th President of the United States is to cling to this version. We must admit victory, a democratic result, and look for other leaders, elsewhere, to build a better world.
