The results of the US midterm election have attracted much attention. At present, the voting situation in various states is under statistics. According to analysis of the votes issued by many American media, the Democratic Party will receive a majority seat in the House of Representatives . The Republican Party will continue to control Senate after midterm elections. This means that Trump has failed to escape the fate of Obama and will become a "lame duck president" in the next two years of his term, and his policies will be blocked completely.
As we all know, the biggest feature of Trump's administration is "not playing according to routines." Within two years, not only did the political legacy of his ex, but he also "caught trouble" everywhere, such as provoking unprecedented Sino-US economic and trade frictions, which made bystanders sneer and caused many American people to suffer deeply.
This midterm election is a big test of the Trump administration's achievements over the past two years, and it is also a reshuffle within the Republican and Democratic parties and the political structure of the United States, which is related to the political trend of the United States in the next two years and even longer.
"New York Times " was blunt in commenting on the vote, "a country that is in chaos is ready to make a judgment on Trump." To put it bluntly, we have experienced two years of "ruling the country by willfulness". This time we have revenge and revenge.
The Republicans knew that the situation was not good, and the Democrats felt that the opportunity had come, so both sides worked hard. It was a mess when we tore off each other in one go - before the
Election, there were "bomb mailers incident" and "synchronized church shootings" in the United States, which caused panic in American society and sentiment pervading.
The election is imminent, and politicians have different thoughts and no restraints. Hillary called on voters to reject "authoritarian" Trump through the midterm elections.
Trump is not a vegetarian either. In the last week of the election, we traveled through 8 states within 5 days, participated in 11 campaign rallies, and launched plans to cancel anti-immigration combination punches such as " birth citizenship ". However, Trump, who was uneasy, also found a good way for himself, saying that if the Republican Party loses control of the House, people should not blame him.
has already predicted that the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives will investigate the Trump administration's policies and behaviors and prevent the bill drafted by the Republican Party from passing.
Take trade negotiations as an example. The Democrats re-controlled US House of Representatives , and the United States will "split Congress." As the demands of the two parties on free trade agreements are very different, not only the previously negotiated free trade agreements may not be passed, but the Trump administration's bargaining power when negotiating with trading partners will also be greatly reduced.
For example, the Trump administration has negotiated the first major trade agreement during his term before the midterm elections, the USMCA, but the agreement still needs to be approved by the new Congress. Canada has expressed concerns that if the new Congress sees a split between the House and the Senate, the prospects for the USMCA may change.
Various signs indicate that Trump may find it difficult to be willful, and the party politics of the United States that are drawn by the party will become more and more intense in the future. The rising political internal friction is by no means a blessing. Apart from saliva, it is unlikely that it will not solve any practical problems. What will be dragged down will be the future and destiny of the United States in the end.
From the performance in recent years, we can see that the current tear in American society is unprecedented. Conservatives should build walls, control illegal immigration, lower tax rates and relax regulations; liberals should continue to promote cultural pluralism and identity politics, increase tax rates and increase regulations. As some observers say, this is a confrontation between two United States, a struggle between two futures and two destinies.
This kind of tear will not only not be smooth, but will escalate in the future. And these facts will continue to slap American politics in the face. After all, American democracy has always been "prestige" and "superiority". Now everyone has seen clearly that the original intentions of "mutual checks and balances" have long evolved into a life-and-death political party attack. This is not a blessing for the United States, nor is it a blessing for the world.
