On January 20th, Biden took office as the 46th President of the United States

Biden came to power, you might as well start from learning Trump instead of just reckoning your "legacy"

After the violent clashes of on Capitol Hill on January 6, Trump’s presidential career has actually been "political death" . This surly "Twitter President" is too far apart from Washington and even the well-dressed traditional Western leaders. In the heyday of power, Trump 's ears are not without insincere exaggeration, but once obvious flaws are revealed, they are destined to be removed from the circle.

In the United States today, it is not just social media giants such as Twitter and Facebook that are determined to cut with Trump, but also self-proclaimed conservatives, including his "deputy" Pence and Yuan who have been defending him for the past four years. Consolidated Republican leader McConnell, etc., on the whole have already "goed well and not given away."

Trump walked out of the White House, and was tightly tied up with fringe crowds such as "Proud Boys", which strengthened his inherent impression of "not looking like the owner" . In the aftermath of the violent clashes on Capitol Hill and the impression that Trump himself returned to the orthodox line at the end of his term, the trend of 's public opinion seems to have suddenly turned to crusade and liquidation . In fact, in the past four years, the most maverick American president in the history of the United States has made major changes to the Washington political agenda.In addition to the exaggerated words and deeds and the political strategy of playing with fire, Trump’s "political heritage" is not without merit and inheritance, even if it is , which hates him, the Democratic Party, . Just blindly liquidate, is it another kind of "polarization" .

Trump’s “deputy” Pence did not attend Trump’s farewell party, but went to Biden’s inauguration

First of all, The Trump administration left a “campaign pledge to Realize the political atmosphere . Biden emphasized that the new government will heal a divided United States. This statement is not entirely accurate. Splitting is one of the manifestations of the problem. In the past, politicians from the two parties were used to forgetting what they said and were unwilling to perform "responsible politics." This led to the downward shift of contradictions and the deepening of civil grievances. This is the core of the problem.

Since Trump took office, the simple and rude policies and the lack of sufficient professional competence are obvious shortcomings. However, there is one thing that Trump is indeed earnestly fulfilling his promises. From amending the medical insurance bill to relocating the manufacturing industry, from building a wall on the border to withdrawing troops from , Afghanistan, and Syria, as an unfounded political veteran and what he calls an “outsider,” Trump is actually pushing it one by one. In the process of landing the campaign policy agenda, it gradually formed a deep bond with conservative lawmakers and professional politicians. From this perspective, Trump is hateful on the one hand, but the votes on the other side have risen from 62 million in 2016 to 74 million in 2020, indicating that he "really did a job."

Biden can use "hate Trump" as the only platform during the campaign, but after he takes office, he must solve the problem of how to implement the basic anger of the Democratic Party into specific policies . The army of refugees from Central America is moving towards the border between the United States and Mexico ,They believe that Biden will be more benevolent; allies from Europe are waiting for the U.S. to end tariff penalties. They believe that Biden is international... But does Biden have the courage to "turn the chaos out of the way" and treat 74 million What if the anger of conservative voters is nothing? Is Biden capable of taking a middle path that is acceptable to both sides?

After the Biden administration takes office, it needs to solve the problem effectively, ease the antagonistic relationship with the conservative crowd united by Trump, and appease the left-wing radical forces who are also restless. You know, although there are indeed some radical lunatics in the basic board of the left and right wings, they are more of the basic people who have been in trouble for a long time. One thing is certain. With Trump's ignorance over the past five years, Washington's past political strategy of avoiding controversy in the past may be fooled.

The Trumps wave goodbye before leaving Washington

Secondly, The Trump administration has largely transformed the United States and the world's view of the globalization process . The economic globalization advocated by neoliberalism has undergone some substantial changes in the four years of Trump's administration. The process of globalization that has expanded again after the Cold War can be seen to some extent as being led by Wall Street and Silicon Valley: financial capital is responsible for packaging Silicon Valley and reaping beautiful financial annual reports; Silicon Valley gets its start-up capital from Wall Street , Occupying the upper reaches of the global industrial chain, drawing capital and talent support from all over the world: the two work together to squeeze the profitability of traditional manufacturing and agriculture, and promote the transfer of the weaker profitability part of the industrial chain to the cheaper production factor. Three worlds.

On its own, the process of industrial transfer is an inevitable demand for the development of productivity, but this process itself does not consider other factors other than profit such as social stability and political solidarity. The real problem brought about by the radical globalization process is the deep bond between capital and the government. The huge profits that Wall Street and Silicon Valley grabbed from the world were not taken out by the government for secondary distribution, saving those people who are in trouble due to globalization, and ultimately leading to the United States. The impoverishment of the middle class and the unprecedented increase in income gap.Whether it’s true or false, whether it’s the utilitarian goal of "America First" or a political show to please supporters, Trump responded to these frustrations more seriously than any self-proclaimed figure in Washington. The demands of the author , including the "Brother Shaman" who stormed into Capitol Hill, and the "retired female soldier" Ashley Babbitt who was shot and killed on Capitol Hill.

Trump's prescription is to move the industry chain back to the United States, which seems to be of little effect. But Trump's daring to show Wall Street and Silicon Valley's face has already affected the current process of economic globalization. It should be noted that limited and controllable globalization has changed from a slogan to a realistic policy choice in many Western countries. The Trump administration has issued a clear signal that profitability is not the only indicator for the United States to evaluate the value of Wall Street and Silicon Valley, and requires capital to obey the government's social security strategy, and requires Wall Street and Silicon Valley to "bleed" themselves to promote the downstream industrial chain to move back. United States. U.S. auto companies need to use Alcoa, and Apple’s mobile phone assembly needs to be carried out in the U.S....

Many of Trump’s actions are only symbolic or lack follow-up means, but his “topping out” idea really forced the monopoly We have shrunk the global supply chain . Putting aside the harsh noises Trump made in front of the microphone and on social media, his understanding of government functions is not entirely unreasonable. The government is not only the promoter of globalization, but also the protector of social stability in the process of globalization. The government must protect capital, but also limit the negative effects of capital. Due to the leadership of the United States in the process of economic globalization, Trump’s economic nationalism has led many Western countries that had long ago had this intention but dared not reveal it to follow the trend, forming a global trend. Biden’s policy basically follows Obama , but in the face of the climate of controllable globalization thought, whether Biden can fully restore neoliberal globalization is not optimistic.

Finally, Trump passed a heavy blow to multiculturalism,In fact, it temporarily stabilized the already shaky American mainstream value . Trump started his business with contempt for "political correctness," and because of excessive consumption of "political correctness," his opponents were completely mobilized and eventually lost power. As a result, many people hailed the return of multiculturalism to the core of the American political arena. This argument ignores a basic reality, that is, Trump's opponents are too complex and their appeals are too mutually exclusive. After defeating Trump, they are likely to return to a mess. On the other hand, the American conservatism has assembled during the Trump era.

The core of American political correctness is to protect cultural pluralism, to defend the rights of survival and development of various groups of people such as minorities, religious minorities, gay groups, gun-controllers, environmentalists, and meta-governance believers. Beware The "discourse hegemony" of mainstream values, but the lack of the ability to integrate many groups together, makes it more difficult to form a sustainable policy agenda. Therefore, "political correctness" gradually evolved into an empty rhetoric in reality. The country lacks cohesion and the government lacks executive power, but at the same time both liberal and conservative factions suffer . Based on a larger historical perspective, it is not difficult to find that the stability and development of a country depends on the unity of all people. Any society that cannot answer "who are we" and lacks strong mainstream values ​​will be weak.

Trump is indeed rough and wantonly to create social divisions, but by kidnapping moderate conservative forces, he brought the right-wing moderates closer to the conservatives, and finally allowed the conservative forces to eliminate internal differences. Therefore, the Trump administration actually has a strong political consensus and policy execution power. Such an advantage is currently not seen in the Biden administration. In the past, the Democratic Party government's laissez-faire approach to the development of diverse groups, blindly buying and lack of overall coordination, can not be compared with it.

Biden can stop building or even demolish the wall built during Trump, but the current situation of allowing illegal immigrants to enter and exit freely at the US-Mexico border may also have strong disagreements among Democratic supporters. Biden can restore Obama's medical insurance policy, but he may not be able to change the state where huge investment has been swallowed by private insurance and medical institutions, and the people have gained little benefit. In the final analysis, the incompetence of the Biden administration is not necessarily caused by incompetence, but a series of "political correctness" principles derived from multiculturalism also have serious birth defects, and they have been extremely seeking "different differences" in long-term political practice. And the refusal to "join" also risks disabling the country's politics . Trump's "make a difference" is not how genius he is, but his attempt to rebuild national autonomy and authority can solve a series of problems facing the United States. If Biden is to make a difference, it is very difficult not to return to Trump's line in these areas.

Trump is not a standard politician, and he will become the president of the world's number one power by fate; he is not good at learning, arrogant and thoughtless, and his foundation is not solid. In Washington where ambitious people are like Jiang Zhiqing, Trump has left sadly and it is difficult to make a comeback . But things often have to be looked at from two sides. It is precisely because Trump does not have many inherent political bad habits in Washington. Instead, he recklessly lost some of the long-term and major demands of conservative groups. For Biden and the United States, anti-Trump is easy for , and it is difficult for anti-Trumpism . It is difficult for American politics to enter a new era without seriously facing such a basic reality proposition.
