Trump-pum

A person whose nomination in the US president was recently perceived as a curiosity became a candidate from the Republicans

On Tuesday, the primary elections in Indiana, a relatively small state, unexpectedly for many, actually put an end to the extremely emotional and protracted struggle for the presidential nomination from the Republican Party. Having lost in the elections, Senator Ted Cruz refused to continue the struggle for the presidency, which turned Donald Trump into an actual presidential party candidate.

An hour after it became known that Cruz suffered a serious defeat from Donald Trump on the primaries in Indiana, he threw off the white flag. Cruise finished his performance at the election headquarters in front of the supporters with the words that he was suspended his campaign, with the words that the amazed audience answered with shouts: "No, Ted, no!"

Despite the significant lag in the struggle for the nomination from Trump, Cruz until the last minute hoped that his opponent would not gain the necessary votes of the delegates of the party congress for the nomination. In this case, he could, with the help of supporters in the party establishment, skeptical of Trump, to take advantage of the peculiar features of the process of nomination of candidates and pull the majority of the congress delegates to their side. This prospect greatly bothered Trump, who complained about the injustice of the process of selecting a presidential candidate. But this option was possible only if Trump did not gain 1238 congress delegates according to the results of the initial elections of votes. His major victory in Indiana actually provided him with these votes.

In his speech, after the triumph on the primaries in Indiana, Donald Trump spoke as a party candidate, ready to send the country to the right course, unite the party and defeat Hillary Clinton in the general elections in the fall. He promised the workplaces to the working class, the country - the revision of unequal international trade agreements, the return of respect for the United States in the world, turning them into a state whose interests no one can neglect, that is, he set out the strategy that he calls "American interests - primarily."

“Hillary Clinton says that she wants to close coal mines. I assure you that the miners of Western Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio and other states will return to work. Believe me,” Trump said to his enthusiastic audience. “Clinton will not be good, she will not be an outstanding president. She will sign up the worst trade agreement in The history of mankind is called Nafta - the North American agreement on free trade.

The United States will have a wonderful relationship with all countries, but it will be the street, as Trump put it, with bilateral traffic. In other words, it will not allow other countries to operate the United States. And, of course, President Trump will do everything to strengthen the American armed forces, the candidate Trump assured his jubilant supporters after the victory in the Indiana.

But in the way of Trump in the White House there are giant obstacles.

“He will become the object of cruel attacks on the part of Hillary Clinton and its democrats allies,” says Brit Hum, the observer of FoxNews TV channel. “They will indicate the superficiality of his promises, they will remind of his offensive attacks on women, ethnic minorities, and this will be repeated without end. But before Donald Trump can start a real struggle for The presidency of Hillary Clinton, he needs to attract the vast majority of the Republican Party to his side.

Now among the Americans are more than those who consider themselves to be democrats

Now among the Americans there are more than those who consider themselves to be democrats, so a candidate from the Republicans must have their own party, and independent and part of the democrats. And Trump, according to polls, has very weak positions among ethnic minorities and women - key groups of the electorate, which are firmly supported by Hillary Clinton. Almost all surveys, with the exception of one that Trump mentioned today, indicate a tangible superiority of Clinton in a direct confrontation with Trump. And that's not all. He has incredibly high negative ratings with which the election can hardly achieve. However, Hillary also has high negative ratings, voters have an unusually high level of distrust for her, but he is not as giant as Trump’s, although she also faces a difficult task. She is a weak candidate. "

Hillary Clinton is also a weak candidate

Just about a year ago, the candidacy of Donald Trump looked in the eyes of so many professionals by a political curiol. His incredible victory in the struggle for the presidential nomination from the Republican Party, so far, apparently, is perceived by the majority of political scientists as aberration, the result of very unusual circumstances that have developed in the Republican Party. He is continued to be considered a candidate acceptable for only a relatively small stratum of the Republicans. Here's what Martin Overby , professor of political sciences from the University of Missouri, says in an interview with Radio, says Radio:

- We are dealing with part of the electorate, which feels lost in the current economic situation, those who express their irritation in this way. I will be very surprised if Trump in a general election receives a larger percentage of votes than in the primary elections, that is, more than 30–40 percent of the voted. I think that as the presidential election approaches, when people will think more about the responsibility that the American president bears, on the actions and even words of which a lot depends, they will opt for experienced professional politics. In the United States there is an expression "you are leading a campaign in the language of poetry, and rule in prose." Trump, like no one, can be said, gifted with this poetic inspiration. He tirelessly talks about how he will put the idea of “the interests of America primarily” at the forefront, but at the same time he never goes into details, does not go beyond several sentences. During the general elections, he will encounter Hillary Clinton with an experienced politician who has passed very difficult trials. She will do, I think, everything possible to force him to tell in more detail how he intends to defend the interests of America - and it will not be easy for him to do it.
