The Republican future without Trump

The Republican future without Trump

 

Joe Biden arrives for the US presidency at a time in their country is more divided than ever after the Donald Trump's management haphazard. Without being too charismatic, or a star of the rhetoric as Bill Clinton or Barack Obama, Biden has said he would like to leave behind the unity of the US.

 

 

But the unit will not be the only one president's challenge 46 of the United States. During Trump's tenure was a retreat from the obligations of this country and international organizations and the attention focused on domestic affairs. This policy is known as " America First '. In short, ignored the interests of allies and partners, both military and trade, and Joe Biden will have a uphill path to reverse the refusal of Trump.

 

How did you get to the presidency?

Donald Trump took that American society in decades, increasing their polarization to launch his political campaign. A Pew Research Center study argues that this division is aggravated owing to the bipartisanship of the political system, which makes the legitimate differences in a wide range of debates seem larger than they really are. Those who can get any electoral advantage that make the situation in a zero-sum game, instead of seeking common ground.

 

So, Trump began his presidential campaign in 2015 US army veterans insulting, women, disabled and Mexican immigrants, belonging to the country's largest minority. His criticism of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan gave him credibility among millions of people who have lived in her own meat the military failures and US commercial. Despite the fact that Trump never gave some details of how he would do things, people believed him because they themselves have filled the gaps in how he would do to build the wall with Mexico, or repatriate jobs, with which your slogan ' Make big America again ' reflects discontent, nostalgia and hope to the time.

 

Once in the government, the strategy was to continue as if he was campaigning, not to vary the tone of discourse and " start things, " although it is not concretaran at all. From this emerged the chain of lies that were tabled as " alternative facts ' for your Conway Kellyann consultant, who imposed the tone of the deal with the press and whoever took it upon themselves to challenge the reality imposed from the Oval Office : from the Russian plot of support for Trump in the campaign by 2016, or their political projects, of which only went through a fiscal reform, and some new miles of the wall prometidísimo on the border with Mexico. Those who would have tried it on to question it were made y/o redundant fustigados on Twitter.

 

What at first seemed not have serious consequences, since the president always had the support of the Republican party, ended up being a huge mistake, as was evident on 6 January. The seizure of the Capitol is proof that the " alternative narrative, " Trump created a " alternate reality ' for his followers.

 

So Trump he twisted the demands of the Matter Lives Black movement, which resonated with force after the murder of George Floyd at the hands of a white policeman. The Floyd's last words " I can't breathe " (I can't breathe) were echoed on throughout the black population and Latino America and various parts of the world. Trump, in time to recognize the abuse, called the " law and order ', accusing Democrats of wanting to attack the suburbs and endangering the white population.

 

This is the dividing line between Democrats and Republicans is clear : a Pew Research Center study in January 2020 found that eight of 10 white Democrats argue that the police and the penal system are more unfair to blacks in front of four of every 10 white republicanos.

 

 

The alternative event last of Trump

The most recent lie and disruptive of the former president, Trump is that he had won the presidential election in 2020 and that the deep state ’ ' denied him the victory.

 

Agotados all the legal paths to reverse the election results, on the eve of the certification of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as president and vice-president elected, Donald Trump ended his career of " alternative facts ' inciting a crowd of supporters to bum-rush the Capitol and stop the certification ceremony.

 

The balance of the raid were five deceased people, including a Capitol police. Okay sources convarias, the president refused to call the National Guard to restore order and chided his Pence Vice President Mike to meet with its work to certify the results, even when it was being evacuated the building.

 

The greatest damage from alternate reality created and released by Trump is in the decline of the credibility of its more than 70 million followers in the political institutions. According to a Vox poll and Data for Progress, even after the assault on the Hill, 72 % of Republican voters continue to doubt the results of presidential elections. The 74 % said that the allegations of electoral fraud have contributed to worry about the reliability of the elections. Worse still, even among independents, 42 % said that currently don't trust the election results, according to the same survey.

 

 

The impeachment second

Given the magnitude of the mutiny of 6 January, is carried out a second trial to dismiss the Donald Trump in the House of Representatives. Without knowing the outcome of this impeachment second, which was approved in the House of Representatives on 13 last January, we can say that the trial in the Senate will be very different from the first.

 

Chuck Schumer, senator for New York, will the Senate and will not have the bias attitude that had Mitch McConnell. Trump does not seem to have lawyers to defend it. So it might be a speedy trial in which some Republicans will have greater freedom to vote against Trump and maybe some of them do it. Without the expresidente will be free and seek ways to keep the 74 million voters who managed in the last presidential election.

 

It's likely, however, that they reach the 2/3 of votes in the Senate needed to denounce Trump. This, however, is irrelevant, therefore, to win the prosecution, punishment would be removing him from office, and for the time of the decision, Trump is no longer in this function. But if so, why do you try this way?

 

The intention of the Democrats is to make it clear that acts as the attack on the Congress does not remain unpunished. Moreover, the trial has the key objective of crippling to Trump to occupy any political office in the future and prevent him running for the election of 2024 as has announced.

 

The inheritance that receive the Republicans

The trial today for removal is also relevant for the future of the Republican Party. Somehow you have to take responsibility for having allowed Donald Trump go so far. The Republican leaders always advanced the number of voters that Trump them got to the principles they claim to defend. During the campaign by 2016 it disapproved of the verbal attack to John McCain, critically ill with brain cancer, and the video which boasted of grope women without their consent.

 

Mitch McConnell, Pence Mike, Ted Cruz and relevant Republicans others were faithfully on the president's side at all times until the assault to the Capitol on 6 January. They must therefore be responsible for having welcomed and supported to Trump. I don't care to do it for fear of the president's tweets, or because this got to move American Embassy in Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, or having appointed three Supreme Court judges of Justice and more than 200 judges in federal courts ; the fact you didn't censored before he makes them accomplices and have to dissociate and refundar the game.

 

Losing the White House, the House of Representatives and Senate in the last two years is sufficient reason for a reflection slingshot of where you want to go in this decade.
