Guardian: How did Trump infiltrate the American political system?

PNN – The Guardian newspaper, in an article stating that “Donald Trump” should not have found a place in the American political system despite numerous cases and indictments, discussed how this Republican Party candidate infiltrated the United States political system.

According to the report of Pakistan News Network from this English newspaper, Trump’s record of refusing to accept defeat after the 2020 American elections should have disqualified him from running in this election, and the cases filed against him and the issuance of indictments should have ultimately led to his expulsion from the political stream. But he not only took the nomination of the party, but also carried out his election campaign with rhetoric full of anger and hatred. However, one could not expect anything beyond this.

This report then states that none of the legal cases could prevent Trump from entering the election and adds: Basically, what is the use of the word “should” and “shouldn’t” against the ruthless attack of power? Wasn’t everything clear and obvious for Americans in a constitutional democracy? Was it really necessary to wait for all the votes to be counted in order to have a stronger culture against tyranny?

According to the author of this article, a healthy political body should not have been contaminated by Trump’s candidacy. But how the safety system of a democratic system failed and failed against Trump, it must be said: The Republican candidate has a kind of malignant charisma, and to root this trait, he tied it to economic stagnation, cultural polarization and the technological revolution, and found supporters for himself.

The author then added: The Trump campaign has never interpreted voting as a civic choice, with more than one potentially legitimate outcome. According to Trump and those around him, the outcome of the election will be determined either by the heroic return of a rightful president or by the repetition of another government conspiracy against him. There is no room for failure, he always wins. This is the kind of campaigning that is hostile to the basic premise of democratic voting.

The Guardian columnist also points out the recent statements of some American officials about Trump being a fascist and their warning about his re-establishment of power: Just warning about the rise of fascism in America will not work. There is no doubt that Trump’s temperament and ambition are fascist. He admires dictators, lusts for absolute power and considers political critics as enemies and boasts of his desire to suppress them through the military. But we saw that this method and attitude did not create any doubt in the hearts of Trump’s supporters.

According to the author, the reason why Trump’s supporters do not hesitate is the excessive use of the word dictator to compare politicians. For example, more than 100 years after its invention, the term “fascist” is currently overused, and perhaps because of this, it is no longer mentioned with disgust as much as it was in the first decades of the 20th century.

In this regard, the author reminds democratic supporters and officials that they should not rely too much on historical cautionary tales to show the malignant state of politics in the country and find a new way to defend democracy.

At the end of the report, emphasizing that today there has been no apparent renewal in the defense of liberal democracy since its peak at the end of the last century: We must protect ourselves against the virus of fascism and nationalism by updating.
