Death, recession, environmental destruction and retrogression, is Trump's legacy
Without showing the slightest interest in containing the devastating coronavirus pandemic, whose high mortality, economic consequences, unemployment, saturation of hospitals and other effects was widely warned, Donald Trump desperately uses the last days of his agonizing administration, to continue putting together plays dirty that, if materialized, could be classified as a possible coup d'état.
Analysts are trying to understand if, in addition to the fear of humiliation, the multiple pending investigations against him, the criminal proceedings he will face, or the payment of gigantic debts to expire, there is any other reason for Trump to cling to power, whatever price as it is doing.
While the number of COVID-19 infections is approaching 20 million, which Trump criminally claimed "was another Democratic hoax that would not be talked about more after November 3," the president uses the White House to prepare another assault on integrity of the election and of democracy, after failing in 62 attempts before judicial courts, now with more crazy and Machiavellian plans, with the sole purpose of staying in power, against the popular will.
Trump lost the election by 232 electoral votes to 306 for his opponent, Democrat Joe Biden, who also won with the popular vote, by a difference of almost 8 million votes.
With absolute control of the Department of Defense, led by his stalwarts, whom he appointed to replace career personnel in strategic areas, President Trump heard plans from another staunch Republican of his, Senator-Elect Tommy Tuberville of Alabama.
The new legislator told Trump that he would “join radical Congressman Mo Brooks, from his state, in challenging the certification of electoral votes on January 6, 2021, which will be the formalization of the victory of Joseph Biden and Kamala. Harris.
The plan, prepared by Stephen Miller and other advisers, tries to base their actions on an 1880 law, allowing members of Congress to dispute the election results in the states.
In another plan, retired General Michael Flynn, a former National Security adviser, whose crimes were pardoned by the president, would consist of forcing the state governments of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia, Nevada and Arizona to revoke the election result. -which their state legislatures and governors certified-, either to reconvene the election under Martial Law, with the “support and protection” of United States Army troops, eventually under the Anti-Insurrection Law of 1807 or, failing that, "proceed to designate voters who support Trump's reelection," a plan that many aides of the president view with alarm and concern.
The president has considered appointing the discredited lawyer Sidney Powell as Special Prosecutor to investigate "electoral fraud", which her lawyers have not been able to prove.
Powell, with Rudy Giuliani, assured that the election used machines manufactured by a Venezuelan company that "programmed them to help in the election of Hugo Chávez."
2021 renews hopes in the United States
New year and new life, in which the incipient government of Joe Biden, with two vaccines and a good team of scientists and legal experts, will wage a relentless fight to rescue this superpower from the nightmare of the coronavirus and the first and only term of Donald Trump, who will be remembered as a black and destructive chapter in the history of the country.
Burdened by irrepressible infections, hospitalizations, deaths, fatigued by confinement to their homes, unemployment, lack of income, threat of 50 million evictions, recession, drop in exports and multiple problems caused by the lack of vision of the president Trump, Americans await with hope, January 20, 2021.
With the start of the term of Joe Biden, the incompetence of President Trump will be left behind, underestimating the threat of the pandemic and criminally lying to the people of the United States, led to a true genocide, in which almost 320,000 Americans have died, increasing with about 3,000 on average each day, equivalent to the number of victims of the 9/11 attacks.
That amount is more than:
-116,516 deaths during World War I.
-58,220 deaths from the Vietnam War
-36,574 deaths in the Korean War
-12,469 deaths from the H1N1 Pandemic
-7,024 deaths from War on Terror operations.
Gone will be the president who for a decade and a half evaded taxes, who defrauded the treasury, asking for a "return" of taxes of 72 million dollars and who even as president, paid only 750.00 dollars a year.
Trump's legacy
The president leaves the country with an unemployment rate of 14.7%, the highest since 1948, almost 4 times higher than the one he received, and a deep economic recession.
The attacks on heroes such as senator and former prisoner of war John Mc Cain, on veterans who died in defense of freedom, whose grave he refused to visit in Paris, in the continuous effort to demolish the norms and traditions that he felt as a brake on your irreverent impulses.
The president is leaving who, putting aside ethics, morals and conflict of interest, channeled millions of taxpayer dollars to his hotels, which he used during the 4 years of his mandate, with every weekend in Mar-a-Lago and at least 289 visits to its golf courses in Florida, New Jersey, Virginia and other entities.
Not counting the accommodation of Air Force pilots who had to spend the night on their trips to Kuwait, in his hotel in Scotland, which he had insufficient clientele. Other officials also occupied his hotels in Washington and other cities.
Gone will be the president who permanently separated 666 minors from his parents; the one who invented a false "national emergency" on the border with Mexico, to illegally divert funds from the Pentagon and other agencies to build 700 kilometers of "wall" requested by his followers.
With relief, Americans will see in the past the chaotic management of the president, who with his immunity from office, prevented sexual harassment trials that he will have to face from 26 women.
To whom he was unable to claim the reward that Putin offered for killing American soldiers in Afghanistan, the poisoning of dissidents with biological weapons, attacks by his air force on United States planes and more recently the hacking of almost a dozen federal agencies in the United States. United.
Trump leaves, leaving a trail of investigations that will revive when he leaves office, for which the president is preparing to sign more than 21 dozen "presidential pardons" for his children, his unconditional assistants and accomplices, such as Paul Manafort, Rick Gates , George Stephanopulos, George Nader, Roger Stone, Stephen Bannon, his associates, and perhaps himself.
As of January 20, only the memory of the man who deceived 70 million Americans will remain, making them believe that he was the "Deal Maker" or "Agreement Maker" of those who destroyed 13 and renamed only one, advantageous for the United States , about Mexico and Canada.
The one who, from day one, trampled on Clause 8, of Emoluments, of the Constitution, maintaining control of his companies, managed by his children, whom he also turned into paid “advisers” and whoever he wanted, in his management , bombard the people of the United States with lies and contradictions, to weaken their resistance, overwhelm them, tire them and demoralize them, making them believe that there was no other recourse or that it was not worth fighting.
This was the president who isolated the United States from its historical allies, embraced criminals, murderers and repressors such as the Russian Vladimir Putin, the main enemy of the United States, Kim Jung un, from North Korea, Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, from Saudi Arabia, to whom it was unable to demand the murder of journalists, activists or actions against the government and companies of the United States, making this power less free, more paranoid, less equitable, divided by racial hatred, more indebted and vulnerable , taking health insurance from 46 million people.
The president who made lying his strategy, to justify himself, to attack critics, to praise himself and praise his associates; to pollute the environment and poison the atmosphere, achieving a corrosive effect on official paperwork and procedures and on democracy itself, to the point of registering more than 30,000 deceptions and lies documented by the Washington Post newspaper and other media.
The new government has great historical challenges, such as restoring a long series of environmental protection regulations repealed by Trump, who positioned himself as the most destructive force against nature, in the excessive desire to promote drilling for the exploitation of natural gas and oil. , regardless of wildlife or natural sanctuaries.
Trump has virtually put up for sale Never-Before-Touched Wildlife Refuges in the northern Alaskan tundra, habitat of polar bears, caribou and more than 200 species of wild birds, where oil companies have been barred for decades.
Or the Chaco Canyon National Historic Park, considered a sacred area by Navajo and Pueblo Indians, who live near that place in New Mexico, where road construction was also authorized.
In the coasts and oceans, dangerous concessions were also authorized that threaten multiple species.
Trump's terrible policy against the environment would exacerbate the conditions of residents of poor areas, inhabited by minorities of color, in the vicinity of industrial plants, a source of pollution.
According to Richard Revesz, professor of environmental law at New York University, “Trump's counter-productive actions have fueled the climate crisis and put the health of many Americans at risk, especially vulnerable minority communities in the United States. Colour".
So the reconstruction will take time, but there is confidence that in all these aspects the country will return to its original course, leaving behind the attempted authoritarian government and the nightmare of Donald Trump.
