Ultimately, the polls were wrong again. Donald Trump won quite easily. His score is clear.
Those like me who followed the results of the consolidated polls are not surprised.
The heavy biases of the polls in recent years in favor of the Democrats and especially Trump’s lead in practically all key states did not lie.
The Democratic Party is now in complete legitimacy bankruptcy.
Questions and causes
Why was such a weak president as Joe Biden chosen for the 2020 and, initially, 2024 elections? Why didn’t any candidate other than Kamala Harris run?
How could the Democratic camp allow itself to be captured by Wokism? Why haven’t the Democrats taken a tougher stance on immigration? How is it that Biden’s rather favorable economic record was so poorly sold?
The influence of the party’s gerontocrats, from Biden to Nancy Pelosi, supposedly retired, to the Clinton clan, explains part of the party’s setbacks.
What to do
If the Democrats want to be reborn, they will have to abandon their woke agenda and change their orientation on immigration.
They will have to track the disasters that Trump risks generating.
But for that, they need leaders worthy of the name. Kamala Harris is not one of them.
The assaults that Trump promises against the media and against his opponents, his expected reorganization of the state, the disinformation of social media, the control of the justice system as well as the role of extremely wealthy political morons like Elon Musk suggest that the American democracy is under serious threat.
Without a rapid reorganization of the Democratic Party, the United States is headed toward a Hungarian-style society.
Elsewhere in the world, the alarm bells are ringing. The firefighters are on alert. They will soon have to put out the many fires that Trump will start.
