The victory in New Hampshire for donald trump In the Republican internal it puts him one step closer to the nomination, and a new versus with the current president of the United States, Joe Biden. In fact, Trump has managed to turn that primary electoral race into a casting call for his own vice presidential search, an election in which he has already ruled out the only standing rival: the former ambassador to the UN in the administration of he, Nikki Haley. With Ron DeSantis, the governor of Florida, gone, the magnate sees no other obstacle in his return to the White House that Biden himself, whom he now believes, faces an advantage.
It is true that Trump has weaknesses. Numerous cases in justice that point to his intervention in an attempt to obstruct the inauguration of his successor, in addition to others that investigate him for the possession of classified documents in his private home, and other acts of corruption. But there other stains appear in the mirror for the current president, also dotted by his son’s sexual and influence peddling scandals. Hunterwhen Biden was vice president Barack Obama.
The trial against Trump According to classified documents found in his Florida home, it has a start date of May 20, 2024, six months before the November presidential elections. And it is not ruled out that a conviction may occur, which is why Republicans loyal to the former president have been waving the flag of banning for some time.
The decision of the White House and the campaign of Biden, who is up for re-election, have not commented on his predecessor’s judicial problems, seeking to avoid giving the appearance of interfering and directing the work of the Department of Justice. Biden’s team understands that a conviction from his rival will almost certainly alienate independent voters and undecided people who often decide elections, and that could work in favor of the current president.
But Biden’s advisers are aware that the continued silence about the charges he faces Trump deprives Biden of a powerful political weapon, particularly in the case of charges of election interference and inciting the January 6 riot that led to the storming of the Capitol. But a direct confrontation with Trump must be postponed until it is inevitable.
The current management also has other problems, war spending in Ukraine and now in Israel, combined with an economy that is not what was expected. And the investigation into Biden’s handling of classified documents, after his time as vice president, also remains open.
For the Republicans, Biden pressured the Treasury to minimize the trial against his son Hunter, who is also denounced for abuse and human trafficking. Trump representative Marjorie Taylor Greene presented evidence that the son of the US president violated a law that prohibits transporting women from one state to another for “immoral purposes,” and exhibited photographs of Hunter (part of a batch of 10,000 photos that the FBI) where he is seen having sex with different women even in Capitol offices.
Something that for the current administration has an enormous cost, since throws away his moral handicap and equates it to that of the rival. In a scenario in which both presidents face not only each other, but also justice for similar causes. An American election that is sure to be a mud fight.
