A clear victory: a red wall on the map of America and the imprimatur of the popular vote, with the GOP controlling the Senate, with the Supreme Court in its hands. A president who considers himself sovereign legibus solutus, no longer prosecutable for the crimes he has been accused of, pardoned for those he has been convicted of, ready for high-impact constitutional and institutional forcing, returns to the White House
Donald Trump can be considered to have won a piece of the
White House on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania. His rally at the
Meridian agricultural fair was being interrupted by a bullet fired
by Thomas Matthew Crooks with a sniper rifle from the roof of a
building, exploiting flaws in the security service: as it is known,
Trump was grazed in the right ear, except for a
matter of millimeters. What remained of that extreme moment of
campaign violence was mostly his reaction,
those snapshots giving a sense of the tycoon's indomitable character,
capable of rising to his feet, bleeding, railing and brandishing his
fist toward the crowd as a sign of struggle. Trump later interpreted
that moment thus, “I like to think that God saved me for a
purpose and that is to make our country greater than ever.” In his
say, by God's grace, he was still running for the White House.
Back to the White House by the grace of God and the will of the nation,
what in history was a compromise formula between the tradition
of absolutism and the rise of liberalism. There is no air of
compromise for Trump's second time around: he returns to the White House with
that aura of sovereign legibus solutus that he has often
attributed to him. “Loosed from the laws,” and thus soon no longer prosecutable
for the crimes he is charged with; pardoned for those for which he has
already convicted; ready even for constitutional and
high-impact institutions. He had said so, outside the courthouse in
Manhattan to challenge what he called a “mock trial” against
an innocent man: “The real verdict will be on November 5.”
He returns to the White House with more experience of how the
the rooms and corridors of Washington work: convinced this time that he will
not to end up in the swamp of the deep state, not to be thwarted by the
system of checks and balances that envelop and contain the power of the
president of the United States of America and that distinguish the American
American democracy from those autocracies that are emerging around the world.
This is basically where America's first challenge comes from as it once again hands over
the dashboard to Donald Trump and waking up with an executive
stronger and more stable, but with more divided and more fragile institutions.
US Elections, Trump triumph
