Chapter 152: A Sad Election!
Trump was soon depressed to find that instead of meeting one or two pig teammates, it was as if he had gotten into a pigsty, and all of them seemed to be pig teammates. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoAfter the Republican mainstays such as Bush Sr. and Bush Jr. defected, the CEO of Hewlett-Packard also defected, she publicly claimed to support Hillary and said that she would use the huge political resources in her hands to help Hillary win the election.
What does that feel like?
It's as if someone who doesn't understand the rules of the game suddenly rushes in, and he messes up all the existing rules; He is like a bison that crashes into a porcelain shop, smashing bottles and cans without hesitation; Suddenly, he became the enemy of everyone.
All the players involved in this game, all the shop operators, from the shopkeeper to the guys, they have become his enemies. Only those who are not qualified to participate in the game, only those customers who are eager for the porcelain shop to sell at a reduced price, only these people like him.
Why?
Because politics also has tacit understanding, just as all industries have unspoken rules, all people engaged in politics also maintain and abide by the unspoken rules of the political industry.
What is the political tacit understanding of the United States?
Defend the interests of the ruling class!
This is not only the political tacit understanding of the United States, but also the political understanding of all countries.
And what is the best interest for the ruling class? It is to maintain the inertia of existing policies, not to seek change, but to seek stability, because they are vested interests, so they are the group that does not want to see change the most.
Hillary Clinton is a veteran politician who has accumulated a wealth of experience in the political field, knows the rules of the game in the industry, knows where to shout slogans, and she knows what not to touch lightly. And because of this, her campaign slogan is very standard, very much in line with her status as a veteran politician, and makes all the upper echelons who are accustomed to the current state of the United States feel very comfortable!
Hillary also shouts slogans, and she also shouts for change every day, but everyone is skeptical of her willingness to change, not only voters, but also those bigwigs who support Hillary, and this is the prerequisite for Hillary to be able to gain their support.
Trump is different, this person has no experience in the political industry, he is a standard novice in the industry, and the key thing is that this person still looks like a stupid and bold person, who dares to say anything, and probably dares to do anything, which is troublesome.
Once Trump is elected, then he is likely to introduce some extreme policies, whatever the policy, as long as the policy starts to go to extremes, then it will inevitably hurt a certain group.
Although you are not necessarily harmed, but in the same way, you are not necessarily not harmed, this is a key question, on the one hand, it is destined to be "harmless", on the other hand, it may be "harmful", if you have a choice, who will you choose?
For the current ruling class of the United States, they have vested interests, they just need to ensure that their existing interests are not harmed, and the word "change" is the most boring thing for them.
So as the campaign progressed, as the political platforms of Trump and Hillary Clinton gradually became clearer, even the individual supporters began to divide, with Trump gaining the support of those in the middle and lower classes who sought change, and Hillary Clinton in the upper echelons who wanted to continue steadily.
If the U.S. presidential election is compared to a suave masquerade ball, then Trump is a barbarian who broke in with the support of the lower strata, completely ignoring all kinds of tacit understanding and rules, brandishing bloody spears, and dancing war dances unscrupulously.
So it's easy to imagine how unpopular Trump is, and it's completely conceivable that the Republican Party is falling apart because of his troubles, and the bigwigs have fled and betrayed.
Although Trump is not yet abandoned by the entire upper class, there is no doubt that more than half of the ruling class has run to support Hillary.
Trump and Hillary Clinton are two extremes altogether, both in terms of their personalities and their political image, which leads to a very interesting phenomenon.
It's that the supporters of both of them are very incompatible, and basically it is difficult for those who support one side to accept the other, which leads to a peculiar phenomenon, that is, support for the sake of opposition.
A voter who supports Trump may not think Trump is good, but because he doesn't like Hillary Clinton and feels that it would be an extraordinary disaster to put Hillary in office, so in order to avoid a victory for Hillary's supporters, he has to participate in voting for Trump.
Vice versa.
This phenomenon can be clearly felt in the turnout projection, because according to the policy of the US election, for example, if he has 300 million voters, the actual number of valid voters may only be 100 million, and the remaining 200 million voters may delay voting for various reasons, or simply not participate in the vote because they are not interested in it.
And the appearance of Trump and Hillary, a pair of enemies, actually increased the turnout!
Turnout surveys have shown that turnout is likely to rise by 17 percent in this election, all because supporters on both sides are afraid of the other side winning and have to vote to prevent the worst possible outcome. For these voters, they are rooting for one side or the other in order to get the least bad outcome.
This trend of thought is also reflected in the media, which has a similar view in the major media in the United States, that the rivals of Trump and Hillary Clinton are the worst presidential candidates in American history.
To think that they have a policy of only pretending to continue ****** is neither charismatic nor politically intelligent, and even their conduct is very criticized; And the other, which will only sensationalize and please the lower classes, will gain votes by fooling those with underdeveloped IQs, and there has never been any full-fledged political program.
No matter which one of them is elected, I am afraid it will not bring any good results to the United States, Hillary Clinton has absolutely no ability to save the United States, and the United States will continue the policy of ****** and continue to slide into the quagmire in recession; While Trump is destined to bring about change in the United States, it is more likely that the United States will reduce its overseas military presence, withdraw from global trade agreements, and re-establish apartheid.
The media in the United States asserted with wistfulness that this was really a sad election!
According to Mo Hui's understanding, this situation really corresponds to an old Chinese saying - when there is no hero to make the erector famous! (To be continued.) )
