The marathon of the two conventions ended on Thursday evening. More than ever, it is clear that Americans are faced with choices that could not be more contrasted. It seems to me very difficult to hesitate between the two, and the participation rate should prove everything.
Listening to the president, while rereading my notes from the first three evenings, the Republican strategy became evident. We decided to take full responsibility and come back to the charge by proposing the same approach as in 2016. For the party, the results of the first term are good, Donald Trump has delivered the goods and, had it not been for the ” Chinese virus, the United States would be prosperous as it has never been since the beginning of history.
No matter the record amount of lies and distortions of reality, no matter what trials have been past or are unfolding now, we move forward without looking in the rearview mirror.
If, to achieve his ends, man must distort his function, recover the White House and its staff for political ends or reject the ethical foundations of the entire system, that’s no problem.
Whether we like the content or the manner or not, Donald Trump is exploiting what has served him so well so far. Goofy and stubborn, he never apologizes.
When you have staked everything on your image of tough, resilient and unwavering leader, you play the game to the end. The president is betting that he will be able to retain his support from 2016 while convincing those whom his style repels to trust him.
This is the only major distinction between the candidate Trump of 2016 and the one who is now asking for a second term. If it’s the way that shocks you and explains your reluctance to support it, almost every speaker at the convention has tried to reassure you.
Not only is Donald Trump a caring and sensitive father, he is deeply moved and upset by the difficulties of his compatriots.
If he finds himself in the Oval Office, it is first and foremost because he is convinced that he is the only one who fully understands the nature of your difficulties, the only one who enjoys independence and courage. necessary to eliminate the source of your troubles.
You still consider him too abrasive, vulgar, disrespectful to those who do not share his vision? It is only a question of style, its way of being authentic and of dispelling doubt.
You can imagine that the next two months will be particularly busy. Not only because we are in the last sprint, but also because the health, economic and social contexts are unpredictable.
How many surprises, between today and November 3?
Also keep in mind that, just like in 2016, doubts remain around the management of surveys.
We know they are accurate nationally and in many states.
However, there is concern about their frequency and sampling in some pivotal states.
