“The most depressing thing is the number of people who believe Trump’s speech” reacts an American-Loiretaine

It was with a somber face that she arrived at the Bleu Orléans studios this Wednesday morning. Alexis Buckley, an American from Illinois who has lived in Orléans for 20 years, woke up to discover the results of the presidential election in her country, which largely put Donald Trump in the lead. Even if they are not yet definitive, the Republican, ex-president also claims victory. “It’s depressing” tranche Alexis Buckley. “What is very depressing is not so much Donald Trump per se, but that so many people believe his speech.”

Even if there are obviously many issues at stake in this election, Loirétaine offers some possible explanations for this pro-Trump vote: “It was a gendered election, there are a lot of men who voted for him because the Democrats tend to treat them as a problem. But it's not just that: the economic context, inflation, decline in quality of life also plays a role”she explains, “It’s the same speech as Marine Le Pen here in France during the last election.”
