The defeat of the Republican candidate Donald Trump against the candidate of the Democratic Party Joe Biden was a great shock among his supporters who rejected the result, just as Trump personally rejected it, considering it an “inconclusive” result, and had indicated a few days ago that he would attend to the courts for their lack of confidence in the results of some states.
US President Donald Trump, commenting on Biden’s victory, said that US Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden “is quick to pretend” as the winner in the election, after Biden decided the presidential race. towards the White House.
Trump added in a statement that his campaign will file a lawsuit in court next Monday to challenge the election results that showed Biden winning in Pennsylvania, which gave him the keys to enter the White House.
Some believe that the reason Donald Trump became the first president to fail his second term in 28 years is reflected in the repercussions of the emerging coronavirus, but the issue seems bigger than that.
According to an article by veteran CNN journalist David Axelrod, Trump was defeated not just by Corona, but by deficiencies in his character as the leader of the United States.
“Even before the outbreak of the pandemic, many Americans were weary of Trump’s endless actions and tweets, his angry outbursts, and the conspiracy theories he promoted during his days in the White House,” Axelrod said.
He continued: “Trump created and spurred the emergence of a new industry, called fact-checking, due to his extensive falsification of data … along with his lack of seriousness and blatant disregard for democratic rules, laws and institutions, and worse still , their divisive and racist conversations. “
The American journalist explained that if Trump had “reacted differently with the onset of the Crown crisis, he would have managed to change the perception of Americans about him … but he did not … He continued to promote conspiracy theories and continued with his threats and continued to deepen the division, unable to get the country out of the crisis. “.
He added: “He made the use of masks a partisan issue, and urged revolt against democratic rulers who are imposing closure … He turned the first weeks of the Crown crisis into a strange and controversial theater.”
The article noted that their poor reaction contributed to deteriorating economic conditions, significant rise in unemployment, deepening disparities and the loss of many lives.
In the midst of that crisis, the article adds, came the crisis of the death of George Floyd, an African American. He continued: “Instead of seeking to resolve and contain the crisis quickly, Trump criticized the peaceful protests, which led to riots and sabotage.”
David Axelrod concluded his article by saying: “The virus was not the reason that prevented Americans from re-electing Trump … Corona has served to remind citizens of Trump’s failed actions during the worst pandemic of the century.”
