United States: midterm elections

Editorial published on November 10, 2022

While Donald Trump’s shadow hung seriously over these November 8, 2022 midterm elections, the Democratic camp is finally holding up better than expected. “It’s a good day for democracy… While the press and experts predicted a giant red wave, it did not happen,” said U.S. President Joe Biden. The results are still uncertain, but while the Republicans have a slight lead in the House of Representatives, the Democrats could still hold the Senate. In Florida, Republican Governor Ron DeSantis was largely re-elected, confirming his status as a potential challenger to Donald Trump in the upcoming 2024 elections.
If the country remains deeply fractured – we remember the assault on the Capitol by Trump’s supporters, who were determined not to acknowledge his defeat – has Trumpism reached its limits?
