Texas Barbed Wire Incident.
On January 27, 2024, an incident occurred at the Fort Cavazos military base in central Texas, USA, where two soldiers exchanged guns after an altercation, resulting in one death and one injury. It is worth noting that at the time of this incident, the contradictions between the two parties in the United States over immigration at the Texas border are escalating.
In 2023, the number of migrants from Central America and other regions crossing the U.S.-Mexico border reached a new high, and Texas Governor Abbott repeatedly accused Biden of "deliberate inaction." On December 18, 2023, Abbott signed a bill criminalizing immigrants illegally crossing the border into Texas and authorizing state National Guard forces to pull up barbed wire fences along the U.S.-Mexico border to stop migrants from entering Texas by force. On the other hand, Biden applied to the Supreme Court to intervene, and the Supreme Court approved Biden on January 22 to use federal law enforcement agencies to remove the border fence, but Texas categorically refused.
The Texas National Guard denied federal troops entry, and the Texas militia rushed to stop federal workers. Texas Governor Abbott even directly called Biden and announced the launch of the codenamed "Operation Lone Star" plan to deploy more barbed wire, and it is said that he also said: "We are ready for war with the Federation!" Local National Guardsmen even engaged in a "face-to-face confrontation" with federal law enforcement officers at a location at the border.
Then the former Trump of the United States made a speech, praising Texas Governor Abbott and praising him for not allowing Biden to dismantle the barbed wire fence at the border. Under Trump's call, 26 Republican states in the United States announced their support for Texas.
Experts pointed out that the surface of the barbed wire problem is still the fierce political struggle in the United States, and you must know that Texas Governor Abbott is a Republican and Biden is a Democratic Party. The event itself is aimed at the United States**.
2024 USA** kicked off.
Following the victory of the Republican Party in the first primary election of the Iowa State in the United States on January 15, 2024 local time, on January 23, Trump defeated Nikki Haley in the New Hampshire primary to win the championship again. In his post-victory speech, Trump called it a landslide victory and pressured Haley to withdraw as soon as possible.
In the face of the large vote difference, Haley congratulated Trump on his victory, but still firmly said that he would continue to run, and said that the Republican race is "far from over" and looked forward to the next stop in the Republican primary in her home state of South Carolina on February 24.
The arrogant Trump is not limited to his opponent in the party primary, Haley, he also aimed his gun at Biden, the current Democratic Party who may face off in the future, and attacked him as the worst in American history.
In the face of Trump's aggressiveness, after Biden won the Democratic Party primary in New Hampshire, the re-election campaign team quickly turned its focus to preventing the former Trump from entering the White House again.
Just after the New Hampshire primary, Biden announced that White House Deputy Chief of Staff Dillon and Senior Adviser Donilon would leave the White House to join the campaign. While the White House did not explain the rationale for the major change, the timing of the announcement of the decision shows that the Biden campaign is looking for a breakthrough and transformation in the face of sluggish approval ratings. Dillon and Donilon are Biden's most trusted aides, and their job changes also show the Biden campaign's anxiety about the status quo.
Trump is riddled with lawsuits.
At the time of the Republican primary election in the United States, a defamation case involving former Trump of the Republican Party, who is seeking the nomination, was retried in New York. Carroll, a former columnist who is now 80, sued Trump for defaming her in 2019 during her presidency. Trump said that Carroll filed the lawsuit only to raise his profile, **memoir.
Eventually, the U.S. court ruled. Carroll, who sued Trump, originally sought at least $10 million in damages, but was awarded $83.3 million by a jury decision; Of that amount, $18.3 million is for damages caused by defamation, and the other $65 million is punitive damages. Trump then posted on social platforms, angrily denouncing the absurdity of the verdict, the case is politically motivated** and false accusations, and Biden led the politics against him and the Republican Party**, and he also criticized the US judicial system for getting out of control and becoming a political tool.
Capitol Hill incident.
On January 6, 2021, the United States** entered the final step of certifying the election results, and the most chaotic scene occurred. Originally, according to the U.S. Constitution, U.S. Deputy Pence would preside over a joint session of the Senate and House of Representatives, and officially declare the winner after certifying that there was no objection to the electoral votes. But on the sidelines, Mr. Trump delivered a speech titled "Save America" to thousands of supporters gathered in Washington and incited supporters to put pressure on Congress. Subsequently, the procession surrounded Capitol Hill, broke through the congressional cordon, forced its way into the Capitol, and blocked the ongoing certification process. Clashes broke out between demonstrators and Capitol Police, with gunfire and smoke billowing from tear gas. It was only after a curfew was imposed in Washington, D.C., that the National Guard was dispatched, and the incident was put to rest.
After the incident, the Republican establishment began to "distance oneself" from Trump, and White House aides also set off a wave of resignations. In addition, major social networking platforms in the United States, including Facebook, YouTube, and Snap, have also taken banning measures against Trump. Faced with a situation in which a wall is falling and everyone is pushing, everyone is betraying and leaving, and Trump has also changed his attitude. He finally conceded defeat and announced a "smooth transition" on January 20.
On December 19, 2023, the U.S. Supreme Court of Colorado announced that Trump would be barred from participating in the state's party primaries and future ** elections due to his involvement in the Capitol Hill riot two years ago. Then, on December 28, the Democratic secretary of state in Maine said that Trump should not be allowed to run in the state's primary for the same reason.
Biden's political performance has collapsed.
* In the near future, Biden has tried to emphasize his economic achievements, but no matter how fanciful his rhetoric is, it is difficult to weaken the fatal wound of "inflation" to the Democratic Party. At the beginning of his tenure, in order to boost the economy, Biden introduced 1The $9 trillion bailout plan has since gradually emerged. In March 2022, the Federal Reserve finally stepped in and raised interest rates aggressively several times to curb inflation. However, the house leak coincided with overnight rain, and the Russia-Ukraine war led to a sharp rise in global oil prices and food, and the inflation index remained high, and the U.S. consumer price index in June was 9 year-on-year1%, the highest in 40 years. That offsets the benefits of bailout packages, boosting economic growth and boosting employment, as well as much of the efforts made since Biden took office.
Since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine war, the United States has been the most staunch ally in supporting Ukraine, and Biden proposed a budget request worth $100 billion in October 2023, the majority of which will go to Ukraine. However, Ukraine has not brought any major victories for a long time, and this year's Ukrainian army, which was given the expected spring**, ended in failure. The Ukrainian army fought from the beginning of June to October 2023, and there was no significant change in the front. Now the U.S. fiscal budget for fiscal year 2024 has not yet been approved by Congress, and in this case, Biden also plans to give money to the Ukrainian army. After the fires in Hawaii in the summer of 2023, there was an argument that more money was given to Ukraine than Hawaii, which in the eyes of Americans is Biden's incompetence.
In addition to inflation, the issues of crime and immigration are also bad for Democrats. In the aftermath of the Floyd scandal, the Democratic Party continued to cut police funding and limit police functions, leading to a spike in crime in many cities. In addition, due to Biden's liberal border policies, illegal immigrants from the South continue to pour into the United States, and it is estimated that nearly 3 million illegal immigrants have successfully entered American communities.
In terms of diplomacy, the U.S.-led international order has three major characteristics: East Asia, Eastern Europe, and the Middle East. Now that Eastern Europe and the Middle East have been ignited, and the only focus of the United States in East Asia is China, the status quo is that the United States is simply powerless to stop any Chinese action in East Asia at this stage, so Biden's strategy is deterrence. Biden is courting Japan and South Korea in East Asia in the hope of reaching a triple alliance, and in addition, the United States is actively courting the Philippines. Under Biden's operation, the Philippines has opened a number of military bases to the United States, and the military alliance between the Philippines and the United States is gradually being established.
Biden's economic policy can be simply summarized as vigorously developing the green economy and high-tech manufacturing, with these two industries to boost employment and the economy, however, Biden's economic policy is about long-term gains, while the United States is suffering from high inflation. This is also Biden's biggest problem right now. Poor economic data and the international economic environment have left Americans facing both the rising cost of living and an increasingly difficult future, and Biden himself has not given Americans a sense of security and confidence that they can win.
The German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche famously said, "If you stare into the abyss too long, the abyss will gaze back." "Biden and Trump are each other's abyss. Trump has said many times that if he Trump were the United States in 2022, there would be no Russia-Ukraine conflict. To some extent, the war between Russia and Ukraine was provoked by Biden and NATO, and Trump may not do it. However, from another point of view, why is the Russia-Ukraine war not a plan that Russia will calculate? Ukraine has been at a disadvantage on the battlefield, while Russia has steadily consolidated its gains. There is a high probability that the eastern part of Ukraine will be occupied by Russia in this way. If Trump wins this year, there will be no drama for Ukraine. Trump has said many times that he will end the Russia-Ukraine war within 24 hours as the United States.
Western countries are already trembling at the prospect of Trump re-entering the White House. In the eyes of Western countries, Trump is like an elephant that has broken into the glass shop of the Western camp and trampled the Western camp to pieces. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has publicly and bluntly expressed his concern about Trump being the leader again.
This is really, and look at the two major parties in the United States, when will the donkey elephant fight stop.
