United States: it is necessary to re-establish the Republican Party for the stability of the country
During the Republican convention the party's image was found to be anything but united; only
the electoral base in backing Trump seemed compact, while the ruling
class had seen practically forced to endorse the nomination of a
billionaire, thanks to the votes collected in the primary, thanks to a
campaign of populist slogans, but not supported by an adequate and clear government program. The
current electoral conduct of Trump, however, perfectly in line with the
one held by the race to the nomination, is creating further discontent
in the leadership of the Republican Party, with several members of
primary importance, they are giving publicly their support for the
Democratic candidate. If
circulated hypothesis of an agreement between Bill Clinton and the same
Trump, who lent it to play the part of the ineligible candidate, do not
seem to be able to be taken seriously, except as a political fiction,
the current reality of the Republican Party is that of a distance between the base and the management team, which is seen to impose Trump only the election results. The
responsibility is undoubtedly to be found at that leadership team that
now distances himself from the candidate proposed by the convention, not
to have been able to steer the situation, and it found no credible
alternative candidates. This result certainly has had an instant development and Trump did not is not the cause but only the effect; be
placed at the beginning of this comes from the Republican over that of
the Tea Party Movement Party has had within the political formation,
carrying within it a vision far from the classic policy of the
Republicans, but able to attract the discontent of voters an America increasingly discontented and geographically identifiable in the suburbs and in the states most backward. Probably
the leadership of the party thought the Tea Party as a chance to
attract an electorate that often deserted the polls, but that could be
easily controlled, if not manipulated. So
it was not: the vision of a moderate right, often close to several
points of the Democratic Party, has been overwhelmed by bringing the
party's base of more extreme positions, which are catalyzed around the
fear of difference, the idea of American supremacy in world, with the outline of the pressure of the weapons lobby and a distorted view of the idea of order. Around
these concepts, often not even supported by programs able to implement
them has developed an ability to completely divergent attractiveness
ideals which lined the classic Republican voter. The
result has been to have a Republican party that has become, at least in
most of its base, a different party from the one that has always been,
where moderation seems to be gone and where the ways of doing politics
often often extend beyond the boundaries of decency. This
scene also serves to identify the leadership of the party to disqualify
the electoral base, classifying it as far away from the common people, a
sort of aristocracy with too many problems to understand the middle
class and low they choose Trump. It
is clear that, in a system that for decades has been centered on an
electoral competition based on small differences between the two major
parties, the current configuration of the Republican Party is also a
problem for the functioning of the US political system and democracy
itself American. While
in Washington there are Constitutional antibodies to curb this danger
it is a fact that is in the interest of the whole international
situation, probably of the enemies of the US, the most important country
in the world still having the stability criteria guaranteed by a political system that works with more than the usual mode. You
have to remember that the functioning of the American political system
depends very much on who is elected President, but not only that: the
composition of Congress is important and a Republican Party formed by
populist and people with a vision to bring back the country to some
decades earlier, It is an equally grave danger. So
also with the issue can not be closed to Trump defeat, however, this
will give way Republican organization to make a new foundation to bring
the party where its more traditional ideas may once more be prevalent
and remove the harmful influences populist from the inside .
