If Trump founds a party, US political arrangements could change

Despite all the objections raised by Trump, the American elections would have been carried out without defects that could be invalidated. In fact, there are numerous American electoral authorities who are certifying the result and in a recent joint statement they stated that they have not found clear evidence of modified, lost ballot papers or counterfeit votes. The latest elections have come to be proclaimed as the safest of those so far held in US history. This judgment contradicts all the accusations coming from the loser, who continues to persist in a personal war, which only harms the country. In reality this tactic had been widely announced even before the vote, during the electoral campaign, with the desire not to recognize the defeat a priori anyway; Trump still remains the Republican candidate who got the most votes in an electoral competition, even if that wasn’t enough to win; this great result, however, reinforced the conviction of the now former president to continue the campaign of denigration of the opponent and the electoral system, which had allowed him, four years earlier, to reach the White House. The suspicion is that Trump, with this attitude, is preparing the most favorable conditions for his future as a former president, securing rich compensation for writing books and paid participation in conferences and conventions: a way to remain, somehow, however at the center of the functional scene for the preparation of the electoral competition of 2024, in which it seems to want to reappear. This is certainly possible by birth, Trump will be 78 in four years, while politically the question poses more complicated questions. The candidacy, undoubtedly cumbersome, would increase the pretenders to the primaries, in a party where the American tycoon was supported, more than appreciated, by a considerable part, both in the base, and, above all, by the leadership of the party that recalls the classic values ​​of the republicans, subverted by the populist wave that began with the contamination of the tea party. In this period following the election results, the majority of the Republican party establishment did not follow Trump in his tactic of delegitimizing the results of the vote, but showed an intolerant attitude towards this betrayal of practice, so much so that it was threatened, besides than by Trump himself, even by the former president’s children. This situation opens up new possible scenarios within US politics, ranging from Trump’s possible attempt to take over the republican organization to the founding of his own personal and family party. The great electoral result achieved can also be interpreted as a consensus expressed mainly towards one’s own person, rather than as an expression of the vote towards the republican party, this assumption certainly has a foundation of truth and is what the premises for the foundation are based on. of a Trump party, detached from the Republicans. For US politics it could come as a shock due to the possible disappearance of the Republican party, especially if it will not be able to express a suitable candidate to confront the former president. It must be said that the radicalization of political positions would leave little room for a republican party without Trump’s presence, if not towards the center of the US political scene, a center currently occupied by the figure of Biden, but not by the whole party. Democratic where there is a strong presence of the left, which has remained silent so far in order to achieve the sole objective of Trump’s defeat. Since Biden takes over the presidency it will be inevitable that the Democratic left, even for various reasons, will assert its legitimate claims, given that it has been an essential part in leading the Democratic candidate to victory, especially remembering that the lack of support of the left to Hillary Clinton determined the victory of the tycoon Trump. A possible party of the former president thus also affects the Democrats, since peaceful coexistence between the moderates and the left is not taken for granted. The American political scenario could thus transform from two-party to tripartite (similarly to what happened in England, albeit with different assumptions), where the moderates of the two current parties should find common ground to try to prevail. In any case, Trump, if so, will represent a further element of novelty.
