Editorial: El País

  • Donald Trump's new term will be more autonomous, supported by a wide court of flatterers and fanatics, rather than the professional political guidance he previously had
  • The guest list for the inauguration suggests future alignment with ultra-nationalist, populist and far-right leaders worldwide
  • This represents an ideological amalgamation united by anti-establishment populism and scorn for social progress, now jointly under the 'Trumpist international' banner
  • Trump's new allies in Silicon Valley display an increasing influence of tech tycoons within the government

Conclusion: Trump's affinities and alliances indicate a configuration of the upcoming presidency that could veer towards ultra-nationalism, populism, and far-right views, seconded by the technological and financial backing from Silicon Valley, marking a paradigm shift from his first term
