Today’s focus is on the aftermath of the US presidential election. What are the five big mysteries? Why did these four individuals shock everyone by endorsing Trump? Is the American public losing trust in both left and right-leaning media? How is the podcast industry gaining prominence? What are the lesser-known aspects revealed by Trump’s presidency? Is the tough stance against communism a new trend in America? The new cabinet lineup has sent shivers in Washington and beyond. All this and more about the reality within the realms of television and politics.
In the 2024 US presidential election, the dust has settled with former President Trump securing 312 electoral votes, decisively defeating Democratic candidate and current Vice President He Jinli who received 226 votes. Trump’s victory is not just significant in terms of electoral votes but also marks the first time since 2004 that a Republican presidential candidate has won the popular vote. He even surpassed his Republican predecessors in swing states, with some comparing his sweeping victory to Reagan’s triumph four decades ago.
Trump’s political stage is just beginning, as evidenced by the appointment of key members in his cabinet. What clues do these appointments offer about his policy direction? What factors led to his resounding victory? We delve into these questions and more, dissecting them into five key election mysteries.
Fu Yao, Q1: Is the shift towards the right in American society an indication of waning popularity for socialism?
Jin Shi, Q2: Are mainstream media’s credibility at an all-time low, diminishing their influence on the public?
Tang Hao, Q3: With the rise of podcasts, will they become the main platform for future elections?
Fu Yao, Qin Peng, Q4: Will Trump’s return to the White House result in a tough crackdown on communism or lead to negotiations?
“The Wall Street Journal” suggests that the Democratic Party needs another “Clinton,” stating that the party’s failure lies in its disconnect from the common people and the working class, failing to meet their practical needs. They propose a return to a centrist policy akin to “Clinton,” advocating for not straying too far on cultural issues.
Jin Shi, Q5: What steps should the Democratic Party take moving forward? (Just like Clinton, who adopted various right-leaning policies, including strengthening law enforcement, welfare tied to employment, support for immigration reform, and combating illegal border crossings)
Qin Peng, Tang Hao, Q6: Will the US see its first female president in 2028?
Witnessing Biden and Trump conversing by the fireplace, exchanging pleasantries during the transition of power, showcases the allure of the US democratic system. It is through debate and collaboration that the nation’s prosperity and development are advanced. Most importantly, such a system ensures that power truly stems from the people.
