As the footsteps of the United States in 2024 approach, Republicans and Democrats have come up with various strategies to seize the throne. It is true that there are many contenders in the Republican Party, but there is no doubt that Trump, the former **, still sits firmly in the position of "dark horse" and has become the biggest rival of the current **Biden with its significant advantage. Especially in the red states of the United States, people's enthusiasm for Trump has been rekindled, but the international community, especially the Western camp, has had mixed reactions to this, and there has even been a phenomenon of "collective panic". Former allies, such as Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and France's Emmanuel Macron, are now expressing concern that Trump's return to the White House could lead to a setback of the US and even the global order.
The situation in the United States has long been in a state of chaos, and the Democratic Party and the Republican Party have attacked each other with a variety of means, like a fierce competition without gunpowder. Taking the recent "Texas independence" turmoil that has caused a lot of turmoil in the city as an example, on the surface, it seems that Texas has taken advantage of the Democratic Party's refugee policy, but in fact, the Republican Party has taken advantage of the sensitive opportunity on the eve of the Democratic Party to increase pressure and intent on winning back a city in terms of morale and momentum. After all, at present, the Democratic Party still controls the executive power, Biden ** takes the initiative by virtue of his power advantage, and the Republican Party can only find a good opportunity to counterattack by creating chaos.
Trump has stepped up again, and his influence across the country remains staggering. As the "top traffic" in American politics, even if the Democratic Party does its best to contain him through judicial means, it cannot completely stop him from participating in the election campaign. It is worth noting that although there are other candidates in the Republican Party, such as Nikki Haley, they are far inferior to Trump in terms of support, showing that Trump is still the absolute focus of this **.
Western countries are panicking about the possibility of Trump returning to the White House, mainly because of his toughness and intransigibility in foreign policy. Trump's outspoken statement that countries that have not paid their "protection money" in full should not enjoy the U.S. umbrella and even hinted at support for Russia to do more caused an uproar at a rally in South Carolina. The term "protection money" here actually refers to the requirement that NATO member states spend more than 2% of their GDP on defense in accordance with the agreement. Trump's view is that countries that fail to meet the standards are indirectly draining American resources, as the United States takes on more of the responsibility for collective defense.
Recalling that during Trump's first term in office, he repeatedly emphasized that NATO member states would increase military spending, with sharp rhetoric and resolute implementation, which led many NATO countries to increase their military spending significantly under pressure. In addition, Trump's attitude towards aid to Ukraine has been controversial, arguing for changing gratuitous aid to low-interest or interest-free loans, aiming to ensure that the interests of the United States are maximized. Although this way of thinking is not inappropriate from a purely American point of view, it has created numerous enemies at the international political level, especially aroused the disgust and vigilance of European countries.
Against this backdrop, the Russian media keenly seized a possible new opportunity: Trump's re-election could reshape the Western landscape and unexpectedly create favorable conditions for China. Despite Trump's consistent hardline stance on China, some of his words and actions have also undermined European countries' trust in the United States, prompting them to seek a balanced relationship with China so as not to fall victim to isolation in a possible conflict between Europe and the United States and China and Russia.
In short, Trump's power in the United States in 2024 should not be underestimated, and his victory will not only profoundly affect the domestic political ecology of the United States, but also trigger subtle changes in the global landscape, and may even open a new window of opportunity for China. The final result of this ** is undoubtedly worthy of our close attention and in-depth interpretation.
