Donald Trump promised to agree with Putin, allowing a crisis in relations between America and Russia. The President of the Russian Federation praised Trump, the "absolute leader of the presidential race", for brightness, talent and conspiracy. The absolute leader scattered in gratitude . The international deputy Pushkov called him "the only contender for the title" Man of the Year "in the USA." “I am magnificent,” Trump summed up .
All this is terribly touching.
He touches how these two were not lost in the vast world: the lonely Russian state and the most famous of the American showmen. He inspires respect how long they looked after and were inquired at each other. About eight years, maybe: since the future contender with great benefit has sold his house to a Russian citizen, stocking up on the upcoming election campaign. Like them, Russia and Trump, such like non -future, came closer. So far, they have not finally found out that they were directly created for each other.
The fact is that they found an amazing community of political attitudes. Trump went to the elections with the slogan “We will make America again the great!”, And in Russia this goal, roughly speaking, has already been achieved. The means of its achievement were conflicts based on a self -inspired feeling of fear and hatred of external and internal enemies: Chechens, Georgians, Ukrainians, Europeans, Americans, agents of the State Department. The US presidential candidate also skillfully promotes xenophobia, calling for deportation of illegal immigrants, building a wall on the border with Mexico and a complete ban on the entry of Muslims. On the contrary, the fear of a nuclear threat, Trump offers to get off differently, that is, to cooperate with Putin. “I would talk to him, I would find a common language with him” - the applicant has such a foreign policy program.
In general, for both of them, this designated mutual understanding seems to be a very great success - for the cold -blooded Vladimir Vladimirovich and for the temperamental billionaire. A supporter of Trump in the election is a great power, one seventh part of the land with all its elites, the decoration of which is the fur. And the Russian leadership has a chance to get his person in the White House. In general, to seduce and somewhere even to verify the US president is an unheard of success. No comparison with the German and Italian retirees or there are individual deputies of the European Parliament, including Marin Le Pen. The unattainable dream, a sweet materialized dream that has come true.
What can this luck be based on? Probably, the fact that a man of the 21st century, even in the most advanced countries, is as sensitive to fears as in the ancient centuries. The fact that the horror stories, real and invented, as the civilization and improvement of weapons of local defeat and mass destruction, is becoming more and more. The fact that the skill of political demagogy is steadily progressing. So they come closer, a Chekist and a populist, an American voter and Russian, and those who vote for Trump are sometimes indistinguishable from those who vote for Putin.
This is also called the crisis of democracy. In the East, such a phenomenon should be explained by the fact that here they have a weak idea of a free society. That is, they did not see the century of will, although they had already managed to be disappointed in liberal ideology and choose an authoritarian leader. As for America, there, on the contrary, they practically did not encounter authoritarianism. That is why the Russians still support their national leader. That is why many Americans, having heard from Trump, find so much strength and freshness in him that they are ready to vote for him in the nearest presidential election.
True, not all, here Putin was mistaken. The billionaire retains leadership among the candidates from the Republican Party, but Hillary Clinton is inferior in the national ranking. And this means that the chance to get your person in the White House can be lost. In that case, for example, if the President of the Russian Federation with his inherent Pushkov will be too often and annoying to the Americans about which Trump is bright and talented, and he will again bow and thank with simplicity of spiritual. Still, America has not yet reached the state to vote, following the hints from Moscow. Getting to the calls of those to deport, do not let these, but here to build a wall. The Americans have not yet become afraid to the proper extent, did not ripen and did not reach the pen.
By the way, it is possible that it is for the better. No matter how harmoniously our national leader and overseas contender look nearby, the kinship of their souls may be illusory. This is today, in the fever of the election struggle, Donald Trump joyfully welcomes all his fans, including very exotic, living far beyond the ocean. Having come to power and mastering in a new chair, this undoubtedly bright, but too excitable person, if necessary, will easily forget about his previous obligations. Well, yes, he promised that he would find a common language with Putin, but he promised something else: to return greatness to America.
Community community, and greatness is apart.
These are perhaps two things inconvenient: the great Russia Putin and the Great America Trump. And even if Jeb Bush, also a rather bright and harsh politician, somehow doubted that Trump could be entrusted with nuclear weapons, then Vladimir Vladimirovich could not be rushing with compliments. Another Erdogan, decisive and brutal, and even with a famous suitcase, is not Obama to you. So it would be better not to speak out about this candidate at all, as if he was not there. You look and will not.
