Eternal child

On January 20, at noon in Washington time, Donald Trump will turn exactly exactly a year. Only a year, but he was tired of it so that it seems as if he has been preserved for a hundred years.

Blessed countries where citizens do not remember the name of the head of government. The 45th president of the United States is too annoying, he is too much, he is like a Bulgakovsky plague-Annushka: "Wherever she was or appeared-immediately a scandal began in this place." During this time, they did not make any diagnoses - from narcissism and paranoia to neurosyphilis .

It got to the point that psychiatrists write collective letters, urging the Life Medica examined the president for his mental health, and collect signatures under the petition demanding his forced detachment from office. On these insinuations, the head physician of the White House Ronnie Jackson replied that during a recent medical examination, the president, at his own insistence, passed the test of cognitive functions and showed an excellent result. This test, the so -called Montreal, can pass online any desire and on this basis to declare itself a "stable genius." It will not pass it perhaps a five -year -old child. But now President Trump can argue that he has a “highest score” and that is why he will solve the North Korean problem, which turned out to be not tough for his predecessors.

Be that as it may, it is normal. He has complexes and phobias - for example, as we learned from the book of Michael Wolff, the fear of aging is from here infantilism, turning it into the Jungian archetype "Eternal Child" (puer aeternus). You can speak with regard to Trump about a person, that is, a public guise, and a shadow - a dark, subconscious side of his personality, about anime - a destructive female beginning in his character, but in any case all this does not go beyond the norm.

Moreover. Trump can also be perceived as a conscious and very effective manipulator by public opinion. Forgetting that you are not happy for every sneeze, the publicists and politicians put on the “shitty holes” with all in a lodge, a stormy movement arose, and the president admires all this hype and is very pleased - again a successful trolling! He speaks clumsily and grumpyly, argues to the blue, even when he is presented with an audio recording , he lies with three boxes, he works with every barrel, a whole Army of the fact of a fact, he works without lingering his hands, and all God's dew, because the words have completely lost their meaning, and we all slowly drown in a swamp of a multi -sized nonsense.

Ssev in the oval office, he was very surprised that he is now not the chairman of the globe, that there is, it turns out, some other independent branches of the authorities, some civil society that dares to contradict the president, and that there is not enough the majority in the congress-we must be able to convince the majority of their rightness. However, the belief went like clockwork, when the members of the congress found out that tax reform would enrich them personally . This is the main result of the first year: American politics has become frankly immoral. When the largest developer of New York says that in America it is impossible to build anything because of the regulation of the business, when he states that in Washington there is no politician who would not seize for incriminating evidence on the opponent, it does not matter that the compromise offers a foreign government, it is pointless to talk about ethics.

In foreign policy, Trump's course is isolationism. Secretary of State Tillerson is not visible and not heard. The loud threats of the president remain an empty sound. The words "democracy" and "human rights" are absent in his vocabulary. He is not interested in the plight of 65 million displaced persons, humanitarian crises, and the growth of right -winged moods in Europe. He would like to forget about the existence of the rest of the world. This is a global digression. America abandoned the role of a leader.

Moscow is convinced that the relations of the United States and Russia today are worse than nowhere, but they will be even worse. A peculiar optics. In fact, making a bet on Trump, Moscow could not dream of more. Washington gave her complete freedom of hand, stopped getting down underfoot, does not contradict anything. Such idyll has not been in bilateral relations since the time of Stalin and Roosevelt. The Kremlin should bless the "Russophobes" of McCain and Cardin, which help him at least somehow justify the thesis about the hostile policy of the United States.

Republicans will have a difficult campaign this year in intermediate elections to Congress. They will probably lose several places, and maybe the majority in the lower ward. This is the usual phenomenon of the first term. But in 2020, Donald Trump will most likely be re -elected. In any case, strong rivals in the democratic camp are not yet visible. But it may turn out that a one -partyist will compete with him.
