[REGNUM] Donald Trump's victory, and a confident victory at that, which made it impossible to correct the vote either through the "rebellion of the dead" (stuffing on behalf of citizens who died in recent years) or through the "Moldovan diaspora" (mass carousels at polling stations and uncontrolled counting), predictably became the main news of the American media. The overseas press is trying to answer three important questions: how did it happen, who is to blame and how will it all end?
The media agrees that the Democrats underestimated Trump.
“They thought Trump had sunk in his defeat by Biden. They were sure that the arrogance and stupidity he had displayed during his reluctant exit from the presidency had destroyed him politically. They saw him as little more than a sideshow — a malignant character in exile at Mar-a-Lago. A disgraced loser with no prospect of returning to power,” The New Yorker writes.
But Trump was no loser. The Associated Press said the Republican rose and won at the expense of “disillusioned voters.”
"He attacked his Democratic opponent, Kamala Harris, with language that was often misogynistic and racist, pushing an apocalyptic vision of a country overrun by violent migrants. And that crude rhetoric, coupled with an image of hypermasculinity, resonated with angry voters, especially men, in a deeply divided country," the AP writes.
| Goodness. Such unprofessionally emotional language. |
In essence, the American majority, which did not share the ideas of ultra-liberalism, felt occupied by a radical minority. They realized that their interests were of no interest to anyone - and as soon as they had a protector in the person of Trump, they voted for him.
Yes, some voted because they liked him personally.
"Most Trump supporters believed the narrative that he was the unfair victim of a corrupt political, legal and media establishment," The Hill notes.
| The logic error of believing that it is narrative rather than reality that matters. |
That is, the same victim as they themselves, but who can at the same time protect them.
"Trump's supporters see him as a unique figure whose crude, sometimes vulgar and often racist rhetoric positions him as the scourge of political correctness," CNN points out.
After all, as The Wall Street Journal notes, “Trump’s victory is due to his ineradicable habit of saying what he really thinks.”
However, there were also those who did not like Trump, but by voting against him they expressed their protest against the ultra-liberal occupation that is destroying the very foundations of America.
| I believer Mr. Mirzayan meant to write …by voting for him… |
"His bold plans to upend the country's political system resonated with tens of millions of voters who feared the American dream was becoming increasingly out of reach," The New York Times notes.
And to achieve it, as these tens of millions believe, the entire old world must be destroyed.
"Americans Just Vote to Burn It All Down," Slate sums up.
| Oh no. What Americans want, at least those who voted for Donald Trump, is to preserve and renew what existed before President Biden, et al did their best to eradicate it. |
As The Hill notes, Trump became the second Republican president in 36 years to win not only the electoral votes, but also the popular vote — that is, to achieve greater support from the electorate than his Democratic opponent.
| As far as we know, anyway. The level of documented fraud in 2020 makes it impossible to know what the final score actually was. |
The Democrats themselves (who, of course, refuse to believe that Trump won because of ultra-liberal excesses and the elites' contempt for the population) are now facing a long period of appointing the guilty. The Hill predicts that the blame for the defeat will now begin to be shifted.
In particular, they will look for someone to blame for Biden's untimely withdrawal from the race. Of course, the outgoing president will be named as one of the culprits.
| Didn’t Nancy Pelosi proudly claim credit at the time for rescuing Democratic presidential ambitions by driving President Biden to retire from the field? |
“Biden’s legacy will no longer be defined by his success in removing Trump from power in 2020, but by his hubris in seeking a second term… which paved the way for his political rival,” CNN points out.
| Why should he have not, when all involved assured the world that he was supremely able, unlike that mentally failing OrangeManBad? |
But, in addition to Biden, the leadership of the Democratic Party, which failed to take responsibility and remove Biden from participating in the election through legal procedures, will also be held responsible.
| What legal procedures are available to prevent someone from running for office? Nuts do it all the time. |
"The party's lack of desire to hold a competitive primary against Biden will be questioned by those who believe such a primary would either strengthen Harris's position or produce a better candidate," the publication assures.
| Only the latter is possible. As we have now twice seen, the lady is incapable of running successfully for office at the national level. |
The Democratic Party leadership will also be criticized for the fact that, having organized, according to The New York Post, a palace coup against Biden, it was unable to put forward a sensible alternative. That is, any other candidate except Harris, who, in her thirst for the White House, refused to give way to more passable candidates.
| Who could they propose? Governor Newsom? AOC? Senator Bernie Sanders? Unfortunately for them, they have no bench at all, let alone a deep one. |
“Donors commissioned polls that showed the only candidate who would be weaker than Biden was Kamala Harris,” The Washington Post recalls.
As a result, as expected, “the country rejected the first DEI (embodying the ideas of tolerance. - Ed.) candidate for president,” writes Newsweek.
"A ridiculous and unqualified woman, chosen solely on the basis of her race and gender, whose only argument was that she was not Donald Trump," the publication clarifies.
A significant portion of the American media agrees that Trump's opponents need to prepare to live in a different America.
“A country where millions of our fellow citizens voted for a president who knowingly encourages hatred and division. Who lies — brazenly, shamelessly — every time he appears in public. Who plotted to overturn the 2020 election,” the Atlantic’s authors do not hide their emotions.
The problem, Vox argues, is not just Trump's immorality but his intentions, since "throughout the campaign, Trump has shown himself obsessed with two ideas: exerting personal control over the federal government
| …so he can drastically shrink it, a heretical thought… |
and exacting 'retribution' against the Democrats who defied him and the prosecutors who indicted him."
| Those who so completely and vindictively break the law need to be punished as a discouragement to others. |
The authors of the publication predict that the Republican will replace the entire professional capital bureaucracy with political appointees and turn Washington into "Budapest-on-the-Potomac." That is, he will adopt authoritarian practices that, they say, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban uses.
| Or just get rid of half of it altogether, like President Javier Milei of Argentina. |
There will be no one to stop Trump.
"His Republican critics in Congress have largely been defeated or resigned. The federal courts are now filled with judges he appointed," the Associated Press writes.
Moreover, journalists recall the recent decision of the Supreme Court (a third of whose judges are Trump appointees) on the immunity of the head of state for decisions made in office.
"Trump's new mandate will raise new concerns that he plans to follow through on his belief that presidents wield nearly unlimited power.
| You mean governing with a phone and a pen like Presidents Obama and Biden? Except a shrunken government will give the president less power. |
He has (...) spoken openly about using America's governing institutions and even the military to punish his enemies. He has promised to launch mass deportations of illegal and even some legal immigrants, which could spark legal battles," CNN points out.
| Last time he was in office the illegals self-deported. I am eager to see if that process will wait as long as next week to become noticeable. |
Trump’s future foreign policy vectors also receive attention, albeit much less. CNN laments that abroad, Trump is likely to “once again turn the United States into one of the world’s greatest sources of unpredictability,” and that “the mercurial foreign policy that reflects his explosive nature will further undermine Washington’s position as the head of the rules-based Western democratic world order.”
In general, the liberal Western media is experiencing apocalyptic sentiments.
“A second Trump term is an existential threat to the United States. The next four years will be the most serious threat to American democracy since the Civil War. If it survives them, it will likely emerge battered and battle-scarred,” Vox concludes.
