  • Donald Trump has achieved a resounding victory in the primaries, confirming his control over the Republican Party and the populist direction it represents.
  • The weakness of Joe Biden, who is criticized for his lukewarm stance towards Israel and Gaza, contrasts with Trump's strength.
  • Under Trump's influence, the Republican Party has forsaken some of its traditional characteristics, such as suspicion towards Russia and support for free markets, adopting instead a populist and protectionist tone.
  • The potential return of Trump to the White House could cause a disruptive shift in global politics, including US-Europe relations.
  • There is criticism of the Republican Party's inability to put forward a strong candidate other than Trump, who has two impeachments on his record and is seen as a polarizing figure.

Conclusion: Crucially important elections are looming for the future of the United States and its global influence, with the possibility of a Trump return to the Presidency.
