Donald Trump’s Putinization of America

It does not matter the number of times Donald Trump Busta Babaat Al -Kremlin, it will not seem wrong from the President of the United States. In 2018, at a press conference in Helsinki, Trump announced that before Vladimir Putin claimed that Russia had not interfered in the American elections, despite the conclusion of our intelligence agencies, on the contrary. I watched the scene sitting outside on the flagrant Summer Summer sun on a group of CNN, with Anderson Cooper, who concluded that Anderson Cooper, after amazing short silence, “I was watching one of the most shameful offers by an American president.” Later, Fiona Hill, director of the National Security Council who was working at Trump at the top, remembered what she felt inside the room when I heard Trump’s words: I thought about a fake disease, and a fire alarm was withdrawn, anything to prevent him from talking.

On Tuesday afternoon, a few hours after his foreign team met with sovereignty in Riyadh with Russian officials to discuss how to end the war in Ukraine, the president had what could only be described as another Helsinki moment. At a press conference in Mar-A-Laggo about the reason for his refusal to include the Ukrainians at the Saudi meeting, Trump said there is no reason to do so, because the invasion of Russia, three years ago, was in fact, in fact, Ukraine’s mistake. He said, “It had never started.” Volodymyr Zelensky. “You could have a deal.” To hear Trump telling her, Ukraine may bomb its own cities and kill its citizens. He claimed that the United States spent three hundred and fifty billion dollars to help Ukraine, and that the popularity of Zelinski has declined to only four percent in recent ballot boxes – the statements of both of them have flew so far.

By Wednesday, Zelinski retreated to Trump’s ridiculous assurances by saying that he was living in the Russian “misleading space”, in response, Trump attacked the Ukrainian leader as a “dictator without elections” in a long period of falsehood reinforced by the false social mediator. Meanwhile, his officials explained during the past week that Trump’s pro -Kremlin’s speech is more than just empty words; It seems ready to waive Russia in most of its main demands in a peace agreement, including the pledge that Ukraine will never join NATONot allowing American forces to participate in providing security for Ukraine after the ceasefire, pressing Ukraine to abdicate illegally from the occupied territories of Russia, and lifting Western sanctions imposed on Russia. Trump’s embrace of America’s opponent and his ally was so completely and completely that senior Kremlin officials were amazed. “If you only told me three months ago that these were the words of the American president, I would laugh loudly,” as former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev published X.

However, it seems that all of this has happened one month in his second term appropriate, for an unanimous American president of his desire that cannot be explained in the absorption of Putin. One of the differences in Trump’s first four years in his position, although he has now adopted not only a conflict of Russia with Ukraine, but it is an approach towards foreign policy on everything that Putin’s view of the world, as a stadium, as a stadium for great predators to practice unlimited control Almost to the smaller countries within their field of influence. How to explain Trump’s initial moves on the world stage since his return to his position, where he threatened to seize the land on the land in the Western hemisphere, from Canada to Greenland and Panama? Certainly, he was encouraged by the illegal inclusion of Putin of the Crimea Peninsula in 2014 – one of the many concessions that Trump will now press Ukraine is to admit that this region has been lost to Russia forever. Trump The title of the second openingIn a blatant contradiction with his first, until the revival of the nineteenth century “clear fate”, which calls for the idea of ​​American expansion as a mandatory right that should not extend to Canada only the “fifty -first state”, as Trump took his call, but along the way to Mars. .

It is understood that Trump’s public support for an external policy supporting the Doda has shook the world in the past few days. Just as Jarring was, in my opinion, Trump embraced Putin’s similar tactics at home, a sign of his return to power that was completely revealed and an explanation completely different from what Trump was in his first term. We call it Putinization from America.

A quarter of a century ago, as a young foreign reporter for Washington mail Its headquarters in Moscow, reported that Putin’s acquisition of Russia, a process of crushing the emerging democracy in the country. The goals included any potential competition centers that did not condemn its authority to Putin, from the independent media and the wealthy gesture to the elected conservatives. Within a few years, the Kremlin dismantled them all. Meanwhile, Putin enabled the former KGB colleagues of the security services, who created a dictatorship in the modern era of their stronghold in what the Russians call “the ministries of power.”

This playing book is the same as Trump now. It is important to be clear on this topic. I don’t know where to end, or to what extent will Trump take. America, praise be to God, is still a completely different country from Russia, with a long tradition of democratic freedoms, decentralized power in the states, and constitutional rule. But the damage is raised from one month, which is large. Not, I am not only talking about the disastrous plays such as Trump contemplates publicly about staying in his position for a third non -constitutional term, or just one day before, declaring himself a “king” on social media and distributing his white home in a fake image of him wearing a crown on the cover a timeLike the magazine.

Washington hesitated today with many uncomfortable reminders of that transitional moment in Moscow – sudden and fear Critics silence Who has already spoke, work The holder of the president’s ring is acceleratingDeviations of lying and reality to suit the official narration. Trump’s unification of power this time was quickly and translated. In a large number of executive orders, the right to cancel the guarantee of the constitution unilaterally to the newwhere, cancelled billions of dollars from federal financing, and assuming executive control of independent federal agencies. The richest man in the world has enabled tens of thousands of government employees and disposal of authorized programs, which range from the famous epidemiological intelligence service in America to the entire foreign aid program. Although some discounts are fought in the courts, the Republican Party -controlled Congress allowed this unprecedented crossbreeding to its powers with more than a few isolated factors of anxiety. In the Senate, the Republicans reached even the most controversial candidates, including the most affairs, vote on Thursday to confirm Cash Patel as director of the FBI, despite (or perhaps) that Patel will use the agency to notice Trump’s enemies – the Battle list through A book detailed in the book published last year.

In some respects, Trump appears to be believed to be a dictator who has an irrevocable authority. This was definitely a message from his publication on social media during the weekend, as he often sent Napoleon with a quote to the French Emperor in the nineteenth century: “He who saves his country does not violate any law.” Only this week alone, Trump New York ordered to stop Additional cars shipping To lead to Manhattan, he was loudly delayed about making Colombia under federal rule, and confirmed that he prevented the Associated Press from the White House press group for refusing to keep up with his personal whims – defined by another executive order – to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. In the Federal Court hall on Wednesday, Trump’s Deputy Prosecutor of Trump, Emile Bouv personally, arrested the corruption trial from the mayor of New York, Eric AdamsSo that he can help strengthen the Trump policy agenda to combat immigration-which is clearly respected that he has resigned many prosecutors in protest. Soon, according to multiple news reports on Thursday, the loyalty of senior generals in the Pentagon, including the Chairman of the Board of Staff, has been cleaned. This time, Trump wants to make sure that the ministries of power are completely control.

Once again in 2019, Putin employed in Interview with Financial times About the end of the liberal world order, “Time”, which was a long time ago, “Long live its purpose.” The President of the European Council at that time, Donald Tusk Poland, responded, and insisted that what was “outdated” is the heavy brand of Putin, with “tyranny, personal sects, and the rule of few” just a few years later, reading this sentence only causes sadness Russia Putin is no longer threatening the foundations of Western liberal democracy, but Washington Trump. ♦
