United States : Donald Trump is back

Editorial published on November 07, 2024

That’s it, Donald Trump will officially become the 47th President of the United States in January… The polls predicted a close election, but it turned out to be a Republican landslide. Unlike the 2016 election, Donald Trump even won the popular vote (51%). There are many explanations for the Democratic rout: Joe Biden’s poor record, the male vote largely in favour of Trump, the involvement of Elon Musk and X in the campaign, etc. But as with many elections around the world this year, it was above all a victory for reactionary populism. Donald Trump’s return to the White House will accentuate the already numerous and deep divisions in American society.
Internationally, the consequences of this election look just as disastrous. Donald Trump’s closeness to Vladimir Putin and his contempt for Europe and NATO are likely to tip the Ukrainian front. The Republicans’ unconditional support for Netanyahu makes the prospect of peace in the Middle East even more remote. Finally, his denial of global warming promises inertia from the world’s leading power on the issue of climate change.
