Donald Trump re-elected President of the United States: Musk potential minister, a policy that questions… what will his second term look like?

What will a Trump 2.0 presidency look like? The question fascinates and obsesses, in the United States and abroad.

The billionaire proposed the “biggest operation” never seen an expulsion of migrants, from the first day of his mandate.

Very critical of the billions of dollars released for the war in Ukraine, he promised to resolve this conflict even before taking the oath – a prospect that gives kyiv a cold sweat.

The war in the Middle East will also be resolved, assures the real estate magnate, without explaining how either.

A notorious climate skeptic, the Republican has pledged to once again slam the door on the Agreement and drill for oil.everything goes.”

On the economy, Donald Trump wants “steal jobs from other countries” through tax cuts and customs duties.

He remains much more vague when it comes to the right to abortion, considerably weakened by judges on the Supreme Court whom he prides himself on having appointed.

But on this issue like many others, the unpredictable character of the stormy septuagenarian fuels all the speculation.

Elon Musk ministers?

Democrats are concerned about his growing threats against a “enemy from within” and his thirst for revenge.

European chancelleries have been trying for months to penetrate the very opaque network of the Republican to avoid being taken by surprise as in 2016, when the tribune rose to the head of the United States with an unimaginable uproar and bullied the allies.

The new president will be able to rely on the Senate, which the Republicans took back overnight from the Democrats. And his triumph will be complete if his party retains the House of Representatives.

Few details have filtered out about the casting of the future Trump administration. With one notable exception: the former president declared that he would entrust responsibility for a large audit of the American state to billionaire Elon Musk, who spent more than $110 million of his fortune on the Republican's campaign.

And now ?

By electing Donald Trump, the Americans have decided to place a 78-year-old man at the helm of the world's leading power, who in January will become the oldest president of the United States to take the oath of office.

A repeat offender, whose sentence is due on November 26, in a case of hidden payments to a pornographic film star.

It is still too early to say what effect his election will have on his legal torments, he who risks prison in several cases. Or how his political opponents who have been worrying about his return to power for months will react.

Unlike Donald Trump who boycotted Joe Biden's inauguration ceremony, the Democratic president has already committed to participating in that of the Republican and, according to his spokesperson, in a “peaceful transfer of power”.
