THE Donald Trump He returned as if he had been ready for a long time. His first week in the White House was marked by a “Blitzkrieg” presidential decrees and we are now talking about why he knows how the game is played in Washington. Also, a second major difference with the first four -year Trump is the effort to obtain control of power through the elimination of the so -called “deep state”, that is, the uninitiated bureaucrats who staff the state mechanism in Washington.
“There is probably some shock and awe on the first day” stated o Nick StunderManaging Director of Oliver Wyman Counseling Company in the Wall Street Journal. As he explained, Trump is today ‘At the height of his power’ And it will take some time to clear up a lot of things.
The war with the “deep state”
The lesson that Trump has taken from his first four years is that Washington’s nomenclature personally undermined himself and his agenda. For this reason, the new president has already signed executive decrees that freeze the recruitment to the State until the appointments of the new cabinet are ratified and expects the resignation of those who are not entirely aligned with his policy.
Based on this rationale, 160 employees of the National Security Council have been ordered to continue working from their home until their evaluation is completed. At the same time, the State Department begins a wave of diplomats to the private sector, such as Jeffrey Paiatwho has served as US ambassador to Greece and this week has resigned from a deputy foreign minister.
These moves have caused confusion in Washington. The problem created, as the MAK INDENanalyst of the conservative thought tank American Enterprise Institute, is this: “We are opposed to the deep state, but what if the deep state was our own children?”.
The hard line in migratory
One of Trump’s first moves was to announce that he was sending 1,500 troops to assist the border guard’s work and to help build a wall at the border with Mexico. In addition, Congress has passed a law requiring the Ministry of Homeland Security to dismiss immigrants without documents arrested for theft and other offenses. This is the first bill that Trump will be required to sign and is added to the 10 executive decrees he signed on Monday for immigration policy.
The Wall Street Journal editorial team believes Trump’s moves to enjoy the support of American society. However, he points out that Americans are worried that Trump may be dangerously pulling the rope. “He has promised mass deportations. If this means after midnight raids on the waiters’ houses or separation of mothers and children, the political climate can change quickly. “.
Great skepticism is addressed by the executive decree that provides for the performance of citizenship only to children of American citizens or Green Card holders. It is an interpretation of the Constitution that excludes not only the children of irregular immigrants but also those who have some form of work visa. Now 22 progressive states are preparing to lead the matter to the Supreme Constitutional Court, which will give an answer that will definitively clarify the landscape.
The Woke’s Agenda swell
This is yet another pre -election commitment that is rapidly making. Thus, through the first week, the federal government of the federal government has been ordered through the first week. Trump claims that such programs “They divorced the Americans on the basis of identity, wasted taxpayers’ money and led to unacceptable discrimination”. Dei’s advocates insist that they are essential because they give opportunities to traditional under -supplemented groups. Of course, the decree provides that the American state recognizes the existence of only two sexes.
The new Foreign Minister Mark Rubio He did not waste time and one of his first decisions in the State Department was the freezing of passport applications in which sex is written as “X”. On the part of the Democrats, the David TurnerDirector of Communications of the Democratic Governors’ Union, attributed the war against the Woke Agenda to the fact that Republicans become the royal of the king in the positions that the average voter has on the dominant issues.
‘First America’ in the economy
In his speech to the Davos World Economic Forum on Thursday, Trump was absolutely clear about how he sees things and his message to international leaders was particularly simple: Come invest and produce your products in America because otherwise it would otherwise Faced with duties. In essence, we saw, saying that companies going to the US will have low tax rates and that duties will be used to repay the US national debt.
Trump accused the EU of unjustly treating the US, focusing on the big trade deficit between the two sides of the Atlantic. He complained that Europeans are not buying US agricultural products and cars at a time when America said it is flooded with European cars. Especially on the subject of agricultural products, the picture is more complicated because there is no consumer protection in the US and many of the US products do not meet the necessary specifications to be sold to the EU. Trump also referred to the dispute that has been in the years in the The issue of taxation of American technological giants, which he performed as an attack on US companies.
What has been heard by Trump gives rise to the question of whether it is the usual negotiating tactic he uses to get as many concessions as possible. Former Biden Government Advisor and Law Professor at Georgia University Itia Greenberg explained to ‘Wall Street Journal’ that “The Trump government should decide whether it is a noise aimed at leading to a compromise or the beginning of a tax and trade war. I hope and I believe we have to do with a theatricalism that aims to lead to a compromise. “.
Trump, however, appeared open to achieving some understanding, saying that he loves Europe and wants to be constructive – possibly to bargain the market for more American liquefied natural gas and defense equipment by Europeans.
