PREFACE
On January 20, 2021, President Donald Trump, the victorious loser of America's bizarre presidential election, walked out of the White House, ending a remarkable four-year term and leaving the world to contemplate.
November 9, 2016, will undoubtedly go down in American history and world history as a very important day.It's the day the dust settles on the US presidential election.Donald Trump had beaten rival Hillary Clinton to become the 45th President of the United States.
Forty-three people have been President of the United States before Trump.(Cleveland served two terms alone.) Before they were elected President, 14 were vice presidents, 4 were secretaries of state, 7 were senators and 11 were governors.The rest are the commander-in-chief, the general, the Lord Chancellor, the government minister, and so on.Only Mr Trump had never served in government and held no official rank.His election was a victory for the anti-establishment party, for lower middle Class Americans over upper class elites, for doers over politicians who call for political correctness, and for the American people to take back power from interest groups.
However, since the day trump was elected, he has been questioned, criticized, restrained, attacked, satirized, and abused in an overwhelming manner. There has been no interruption in the media, and even groundless rumors and slander has appeared in the media.In the face of all this, the President's actions echo the words of one Chinese celebrity: "It is better to let the wind blow than to take a stroll."In a complicated domestic and international situation, Trump was trumping the trumpet of Triumph.He delivered on all his campaign promises.The American people are well aware of the good times at home.His contribution to the world is also obvious.He command US excellent soldiers destroyed evil terrorist organization of the islamic countries, he firmly support for Israel, so as to stabilize the situation in the Middle East, he ruthlessly limit pressure, contain the nuclear weapons in some countries crazy, he brought unprovoked American hostages who were detained in a foreign country home, his accurate decapitation deter terrorist and make the world more secure.He has decisively withdrawn from agreements and international organizations, making action and effectiveness the norm in international affairs,
There have been several doctrines after the presidents" names in American history.The Truman Doctrine, the Eisenhower doctrine, the Nixon Doctrine, and so on.Trump does not flout his own doctrine, but with his own unique Trump style, he has created a new Trump pattern around the world and created a dazzling Trump effect, showing the image of Trump to the world without reservation:
He is a politically savvy entrepreneur;
A lunatic with a rational mind;
An honest person who doesn't play by the rules
A master of practical language;
A reliable friend who is not afraid of turning a blind eye;
A media backlash against the headlines;
An effective President who is ranked last in the media;
A creator of a new pattern that preserves the old order
A naughty boy in his seventies;
A fifth statue looms up Rushmore.
Whether people admit it or not, history will always remember this man as President.His influence will not be forgotten.
FIRST CHAPTER
A Patriot who stood up -- an ambition to make America great again
Donald Trump is running for President of the United States with the slogan "Make America Great Again" becoming a household name.The slogan had at least three messages: America was once great;America is not so great now;We must try to make America great again.
The greatness of the United States has been determined by its founding purpose, its governance philosophy, its achievements, and its responsibility as a great nation.
The United States was founded to get rid of British colonial rule and give its people full power and freedom.The United States Declaration of Independence provides for five freedoms of the people."Give me liberty or give me death" was a powerful statement that demonstrated the resolve and persistence of the American people in the fight for freedom.
The American idea of governing a country provides an excellent example for the rest of the world in governing a country.In 1787, the United States formulated the Constitution, which was the first Constitution written by character in human history.In 1789, Washington became the first president of the United States. From then on, the world began to call the head of state president.The United States' principles of separation of powers, sovereignty under the people and the supremacy of the Constitution have stood the test of more than 200 years of practice and become more and more new.
America's founding achievements are there for all to see.Since 1889, the United States has been the world's largest GDP, and has been so for more than 100 years.Highly developed science and technology, modern and comprehensive industry, advanced and environmentally friendly agriculture, powerful military, innovative quality education, art, and so on.All these remarkable achievements have made the United States a popular destination for dreamers around the world.
The United States was a great power in World War II.Not only did it provide hundreds of millions of dollars in material aid to countries on the front lines of the Soviet Union, China and the anti-fascist wars in Europe, but it also sent America's best men and women directly to fight in the war.In Europe, the D-Day invasion sounded the death knell for Hitler, and in the Pacific, forced the unconditional surrender of Japan.After the war, the implementation of the Marshall Plan enabled Europe to quickly heal the wounds of the war and restore peace and prosperity.The actions of the United States inspired the old colonial countries such as Britain and France, and made the dream of national independence come true for many countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America.Under the initiative of the United States, the United Nations was established and provided the United Nations office land and buildings, assuming the majority of the United Nations office funds.World police is a compliment to the United States from people all over the world.The United States is the world's leading nation for good reason.
But things are changing quietly.Things that people don't want to see happen slowly: the United States has seen a distinct decline in recent decades.
First, the United States is often deprived of its voice by certain authoritarian states.Diminished influence.At the United Nations meetings, U.S. proposals are being rejected by one vote more and more frequently.American embassies and consulates are frequently threatened, 52 diplomats have been held hostage, American journalists have been beheaded by terrorist groups, and American citizens have been framed for prison sentences.
Second, the economic situation in the United States is not optimistic.In America wages have suddenly fallen off a cliff since 1965, rising by only 0.2% in real terms after more than 50 years of inflation.All levels of government in the United States are facing financial difficulties, and the federal government is even more in debt, now at $21 trillion.The money will be paid by all taxpayers of future generations.Some people calculate that it would take more than fifty years to pay off the debt if they stopped adding new debt.It is impossible not to add to the debt, and it is fair to say that the debt of the United States government will never be paid.Incomes are stagnant, living standards are falling and the government is poor, benefiting only a few elites.
The third is the country's crumbling infrastructure.Lower personal incomes have led to lower taxes for local governments.Take a look at cities across the United States, large and small, where nearly all public facilities were built decades ago, and where many dilapidations occur, and even bridges don't have the money to repair the collapse.People visiting the United States for the first time will be surprised at how run-down American cities are.Whether public facilities or private property, are repaired and repaired, only for continuing to use.Some old buildings, the elevator used nearly 100 years, as long as it can be used, do not change.Indoor all fittings is such, still can use, make do with.Only the big multinationals are making money, building and equipping themselves.
To the traditional industrial area is even more shocking, abandoned factories everywhere, office buildings with broken wood to cover the windows, glass has long gone.Residential neighborhoods have large numbers of low-income people doing nothing and have a high crime rate.
And education and so on and so forth.All this suggests that America is not as great as it once was.
Can we let America go down like this?There is always someone to pull the tide in the storm, there is always someone to save the building when it is collapsing.Donald Trump has stepped onto the political stage.Is he for profit?He is already a billionaire.Is he for a name?He has become a household name in America.He stood up to do it for the country and the people and to make America great again.
America used to be so admirable.The greatness it shows is the common aspiration of mankind.So it is fair to say that Trump's banner of “making America great again” is a banner of unifying the American people, of activating the limitless potential of the American people, of winning.
SECOND CHAPTER
The patron saint of the people's interest -- the principle of America First
Trump's idea of “America first “reflects his deep patriotism.As is known to all, as a billionaire Donald Trump, a successful career, with a harmonious family and beauty, in his seventies, stepped up on the poliitical stage without any personal aim.His only purpose is to serve the country, to serve the people. The fundamental reason of his being the President is that he could no longer bear that the United States has been abandoned and ignored as an "orphan"by the previous elite government .
America first is the American people first.As Trump excitedly told everyone at the beginning of his inaugural address: today, we don't just hand over power from one President to the next, from one party to the next.Today we are handed over from Washington to the people, to you.
It is precisely because the elite Washington government did not put the American people first and the interests of the United States first Many difficulties have accumulated over the years leading to the decline of the United States.
The northern central part of the United States, near several great lakes, once held up the glory of the United States in the twentieth century.But now the light wind is no longer, a lot of factories are abandoned and dilapidated, machine factory building rusts, workers are unemployed, known as rust belt.
Rusting with rich natural resources, mineral water and other industries required everything, developed transportation, logistics and convenient transportation.In the 19th century, with the rise of industry, large numbers of European immigrants flocked to the region, providing the region with enough educated and capable industrial workers to be disciplined.By the middle of the twentieth century, the federal reserve had raised its base rate to 19%, resulting in a flood of hot money entering the United States.The globalization of trade has brought a great impact on the manufacturing industry of the United States. A large number of low-price products entered the United States, and American products lost their market competitiveness. As factories kept closing and workers lost their jobs, the manufacturing industry of the United States decreased by 32.9% from 1969 to 1996.As America opened its markets to east Asia, the decline of manufacturing accelerated and factories closed.Crime is rising and local taxes are falling, one step at a time.Big companies can make more money by moving industries to lower-cost regions around the world, but these gains are not available to local workers in the United States, many of whom have to live on government handouts.After the end of World War ii, at the request of some countries, the United States built 374 military bases in 140 countries and regions of the world, with 300,000 troops.The United States spends more than 70 percent of its own money on defense.NATO countries are nearly thirty, the vast majority of the costs of the United States, and the responsibility of the United States.No country wants to pay more after years of fighting to make other countries pay more and reduce the burden on the United States.
The United States is the world's only superpower, and its apparent strength hides much of its substance.For decades, some of the world's poor countries have made their fortunes in the United States, and even the most developed western countries have developed a habit of eating the United States.For example, the tariff of cars from Germany to the United States is 2.5%, the tariff of cars from the United States to Germany is 10%, Canada is even more heavily taxed on American agricultural products, and the tariff of dairy products reaches 70%, while the tariff of Canadian products entering the United States is lower than that of any other country.
The political elite has always portrayed the United States as strong, demanding that it continue to pump money around the world and continue to improve the welfare of the poor.And the middle class that really underpins America is getting poorer and poorer, and a lot of the middle class is becoming poor.The formerly dominant middle class now accounts for less than half of all American families.The decline of the middle class is a defining feature of America's decline.
While some of the world's poorer countries are riding America's coattails and getting richer, Americans are quietly getting poorer.This is a great humiliation for an American leader.Trump has forbidden such a situation to continue.He wants America first, the American people first.That's what he said and is doing.The Trump administration completed the largest U.S. Tax Cuts in more than 30 years, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, reducing corporate taxes from 35 percent to 21 percent, nearly doubling the standard deduction for personal income taxes, and repealing obamacare's mandate.
The bill would bring $5.5 trillion in Tax cuts for the American people, according to the Tax Policy Center, a family of four making $75,000 a year could save more than $2,000 in taxes.
Following the passage of the tax reform bill, Wall Street Banks began to raise their 2018 corporate earnings and stock outlook, most notably credit suisse, which raised its s&p 500 earnings per share to $155 from $139 and raised the s&p index to $3,000 from 2,875.
GDP exceeded 3 percent to create 1.8 million new jobs
Last year's gross domestic product performance was also stellar, with GDP growth rising above 3 per cent for the first time in three years for two consecutive quarters, from 3.1 per cent in the second quarter and 3.2 per cent in the third quarter.
The labor market has done just as well, with the Washington post reporting on January 5 that, according to the labor department's jobs report, Trump created a bright job market last year, performing "very, very well," better than any recent President.
Not only did the unemployment rate remain low last year, but it fell to a 17-year low (4.1 percent) for three months in a row, with the full-year unemployment rate dropping by a combined 0.7 percentage point, while the unemployment rate increased by 2.1 percentage points in President Obama's first year.At least 130 companies across the country are giving back tax breaks, bonuses, raises and other benefits to more than 2 million workers.
Apple announced it was prepared to pay $38 billion in taxes to the U.S. government to move $252.3 billion of its cash overseas back to the U.S.Apple is also poised to invest more than $30 billion in the United States over the next five years, creating 20,000 jobs.
After the Trump administration announced it would raise tariffs on steel and aluminum entering the United States, pittsburgh-based American steel announced it would reopen a plant that shut down in 2015, leaving the steelmaking blast furnace in Illinois to ignite again.The operation will recall 500 workers and, by October, 1,500 workers at the plant, which produces 28 million tons of steel a year.
Senior officials in charge of transportation in the Trump administration reported to some members of congress from both parties that they spent $1 trillion on improving infrastructure.Under the plan, the federal government would direct at least $200 billion into the budget and encourage local governments and private sector investors to spend hundreds of billions of dollars.
According to the American society of civil engineers (ASCE) 2017 American infrastructure report, some infrastructure projects in the United States, including bridges, roads, dams, airports, railways, etc., have been rated as failing. Over the next 10 years, improvement projects cost more than $2 trillion.
Separately, Trump signed an executive order last year to expand offshore oil and gas drilling and reissue leases to develop offshore resources.The interior department plans to open lease on nearly 77 million acres of oil and gas in the gulf of Mexico starting in March, which would be the largest ever for oil extraction.
Two other things that made the world swoon were enough to show that the President put America's long-term interests first.
One was trump's announcement recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital and moving the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.In fact, the United States congress passed such a resolution more than 20 years ago, but since George w. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama they used the President's authority to extend the resolution to a later date.Trump did not listen to evil, Aster he took the office he immediately made a decision.Because he knows how important this is to Israel, America's most steadfast friend.He did so on America's first consideration.Because the jewish contribution to the United States is huge.And Israel's presence in the Middle East guarantees US interests in the Middle East.It is not in his mind what he personally will be praised or criticized for this decision.
Another was a meeting with north Korea's supreme leader, Singapore.It is an unprecedented feat that past Presidents have tried to do but failed to do.North Korea's efforts to check America's national security pose a huge threat.The denuclearization of the Korean peninsula is the consensus of the world's peace-loving countries.Efforts to get north Korea to abandon its nuclear program have been slow.The imposition of the ultimate sanctions on north Korea at the beginning of Trump's presidency has brought the two Koreas to a reality of the panmunjom talks and prompted north Korea's supreme leader to offer a strong desire to meet Trump.The Singapore meeting not only secured a promise of nuclear abandonment by the north, but also an unconditional release of American hostages held by the north and an agreement with the north to return the remains of the missing American soldiers.The remains of the first 55 good American soldiers have returned home.The idea of America first came to life.
Chinese President Xi Jin ping has repeatedly stressed the importance of putting the people at the top of his mind.The interests of the people are the starting point and the goal of all work.The leaders of the two countries indeed have similar approaches to the people.
THIRD CHAPTER
.A down-to-earth doer -- a decisive withdrawal from certain world organizations and agreements
Since taking office, Mr. Trump has pulled out of agreements already signed by some of his predecessors and international organizations.This retreat from the group is by no means hasty or inconsistent.On the contrary, it is the decisive decision that passes fluctuation measure, right and left are compared, deliberate decision is made.It is the decision of Trump's grand pattern and grand strategy.
1. Withdraw from TPP agreement
US president-elect Donald trump signed an executive order on January 23, 2017, formally announcing the US withdrawal from the trans-pacific partnership (TPP).
TPP is also known as the "economic NATO".It is a set of multilateral free trade agreements initiated by New Zealand, Singapore, Chile and Brunei, the four apec member countries, and has been brewing since 2002.On October 5, 2015, the trans-pacific partnership (TPP) finally achieved a substantive breakthrough. The United States, Japan and 10 other TPP countries reached an agreement on TPP.The 12 participating countries together account for 40 per cent of the global economy.
This is a multilateral trade agreement between developing and developed countries.The provisions of such agreements are bound to reflect the demands of less developed countries more. At the same time, the price and tariff of trade will ignore the actual situation of each country and adopt one-size-fits all rigid provisions. Therefore, the President finds that it is not in the interests of the United States, and it will seriously affect the vital interests of American manufacturing industry and workers.Trump's withdrawal from TPP is a symbol of the emergence of a new era of American trade policy, putting American workers first.As it turned out, Mr Trump's vision of a new trade deal was moving quickly.The United States, and Canada Japan,EU,Mexico and other zero-tariff trade agreements came into being.A new Trump world trading system is emerging.
2. Withdraw from the Iranian nuclear agreement.
On July 20, 2015, the UN security council unanimously passed the Iran nuclear agreement.
On May 8, 2018, US President Trump announced at the White House that the United States withdrew from the Iran nuclear agreement.
In this agreement:
-- Iran reiterates that it will not seek, develop or acquire any nuclear weapons under any circumstances.
-- the successful implementation of the comprehensive agreement will enable Iran to fully enjoy the right of peaceful use of nuclear energy under the relevant provisions of the NPT, and its nuclear program will be treated in the same way as other NPT signatories.
-- Iran will cut the number of centrifuges by two-thirds, from about 19,000 to 6,104.
-- the international arms embargo against Iran will continue for another five years.
-- iaea personnel have 24 days to enter suspected sites inside Iran.
-- the United Nations, the United States and the European Union will lift economic and financial sanctions against Iran after the international atomic energy agency verifies the peaceful nature of its nuclear program.
-- sanctions will be lifted within 65 days if Iran breaches the agreement.
-- Iran has the right to challenge the verification requirements of international inspectors, and an arbitration body consisting of Iran and six countries will rule.
It is not hard to see in this agreement that Iran retains the main capability to restart nuclear weapons.Lifting economic sanctions would allow Iran to recover quickly.
Because Iran and Saudi Arabia, Israel and the United States are enemies!If the international community gives up sanctions, Iran will soon regain its strength. If Iran recovers its strength, it will threaten Saudi Arabia, Israel and even the United States. Therefore, the United States cannot give up sanctions.
But Obama has already signed the Iran nuclear agreement, and France, Germany and Britain have promised to lift sanctions against Iran if it does not develop nuclear weapons.
In this way, there is little room for Trump to maneuver. To continue sanctions is to hit allies in the face, but not sanctions,other allies will sooner or later be threatened.
And Mr Trump wants to pull out of the Middle East soon
1) Trump wants to quit the Middle East, because the Middle East is a pit, stepped in a few trillion (such as the Iraq war) will be gone!However, after the war, other countries, such as China, took most of the reconstruction.Trump is a businessman by birth, so he certainly doesn't want to lose money!
2) Middle East oil has less and less influence on the United States. Due to the shale oil shale gas revolution, the world oil price will fall sharply, that is, the oil pricing power can be balanced by the growth of shale oil shale gas in the United States.So the second role of the Middle East, of balancing the dollar, has disappeared
3) Bush, Obama and others tried to build democratic templates in Iraq, but failed.Mr Trump has also said he wants to withdraw from Syria, while Britain, France and Saudi Arabia have said they want to retain US troops.
To avoid challenging Israel and Saudi Arabia when Iran's wings stiffen, the United States would have to plunge back into the Middle East.Shortly after the nuclear deal was signed, Iran threatened to wipe Israel off the face of the earth.
So Trump simply pulled the rug from under Iran and walked out of the Iran nuclear deal.
3. Withdrawal from the Paris agreement
The Paris agreement is a climate change agreement adopted at the Paris climate change conference on December 12, 2015 and signed in New York on April 22, 2016.The main objective of the Paris agreement is to limit the rise in global average temperature this century to no more than 2c and to no more than 1.5c above pre-industrial levels.
To get to the heart of the Paris agreement, which involves a lot of scientific jargon and data, I think that I would better use an allegory.
A group of poor men and some rich men were crossing a river in the same boat. The boat came to the middle of the river,A poor man shouted, "no, the boat is overloaded and will sink.".
He asked the rich man to throw his treasure into the river to lighten the boat.The rich asked the poor to throw their pick, rake and other farm tools into the river.Poor people don't. They say these tools are what they live on.The rich promised to buy them new ones when they arrived.The poor do not agree, because they are afraid that after they throw their farm tools the rich people do not give them money, so they ask for money now.Poor people do not throw farm tools, both sides insist.Then the poor man said, let's sign an agreement on the ship.They signed an agreement that the rich would buy new farm tools for the poor.A rich man found that the ship was not overloaded at all.He withdraw from the agreement without hesitation.So the ship went on.
The famous US magazine National Geographic once published a picture of a polar bear skinny, which aroused people's strong fear of climate warming.The magazine recently admitted it was fake and has since announced that it will remove the photo.Scientists from Norway's arctic observatory have been brave enough to tell the truth, claiming that global warming is caused by carbon dioxide emissions is pseudoscience.Mr Trump's exit from the Paris agreement was a smart move.
4. Withdraw from UNESCO
On October 12, the US State Department announced that the US would withdraw from UNESCO.The United States considers UNESCO to be "anti-israeli biased."As early as 2011, UNESCO approved Palestine to become a full member state, which was tantamount to a disguised recognition of Palestine's state identity, which aroused strong opposition from the United States and immediately suspended the payment of the dues.In may, UNESCO called Israel an "occupying power" in a resolution, and in July the old Palestinian city of Hebron, under Israeli control, was declared a world heritage site.All of the above has aroused strong dissatisfaction from the United States and Israel.
It also comes at a sensitive time for UNESCO to select a new director-general.Arab power has grown steadily within UNESCO in recent years, with four of the eight candidates running for the new director-general being Arab.It is hard to say to what extent the withdrawal of the United States from UNESCO was influenced by the fact that a day after the announcement, the United States was in the final round of the race for the new director-general, and that former French culture minister Jean-pierre Azul was elected, Qatar's representative, who had been seen as a front-runner, was rejected.
Some say the United States withdrew from UNESCO to avoid paying its dues.This is a little bit with their own heart of small people to spend the stomach of a gentleman.
As early as 1984, the United States withdrew from UNESCO due to its "poor financial management" and "anti-American bias". After the September 11, 2001, the United States believed that UNESCO could be an assistant of the United States in the fight against extremism, and announced its return to the organization in 2002.For some United Nations affiliated organizations, the United States strongly supports them as long as they conform to the principles of the United States, regardless of the amount of dues
Like the United Nations food program.As the world's largest humanitarian organization, WFP is a costly and laborious organization for the United States. Why doesn't Trump choose to quit?Instead, Mr Trump has stepped up aid to the UN food agenda
5. Withdrawal from the United Nations human rights council.
Established in 2006, the human rights council is the body responsible for human rights affairs under the United Nations general assembly. Its predecessor is the commission on human rights established in 1946.The main responsibilities of the human rights council include drafting international human rights instruments and supervising member states of the United Nations to fulfill their international obligations to protect human rights.In the international community, the United States has long been the representative of western values such as "freedom, democracy and human rights" and the embodiment of the defenders of human rights in the world.The human rights council, like UNESCO, is a less docile organisation in America's eyes.Since the beginning of this year, the human rights council has passed a number of resolutions criticizing Israel for building settlements in the occupied Palestinian territory and calling for strong political, diplomatic and legal means to end the occupation. The United States considers this "unacceptable" and even claims that "the human rights council has become an anti-jewish and anti-israel BBS.In addition, the United States also accused the human rights council will appoint"Countries that violate human rights," such as Venezuela and Cuba, have been admitted as members. Some senior officials of Trump administration have also publicly dismissed the council, saying bilateral engagement to advance human rights relief is more effective than a multilateral agenda and more in the national security and economic interests of the United States.In June, the United States ambassador to the United Nations, John Haley, said the United States might consider withdrawing from the human rights council.
In a statement released June 19, the state department explained why the United States withdrew from the human rights council. Haley explained that the U.S. reform of the human rights council is aimed at preventing countries with poor human rights records from being elected members of the council, so that the council cannot protect human rights violators. The United States has decided to withdraw
American foreign policy has long been more or less idealistic.The United States regards itself as the "chosen people of God" and promotes its values of "freedom, democracy and human rights" all over the world.Since the late 1970s, the Carter administration has regarded human rights diplomacy as the soul and cornerstone of American foreign policy.On the one hand, the United States issues annual country reports on human rights, links foreign economic assistance to human rights, and induces recipient countries to carry out domestic reforms in accordance with American standards through economic means.In bilateral diplomacy, the United States has from time to time expressed "concern" about the human rights situation in developing countries, especially during the leaders' meetings.On the other hand, during the period of the commission on human rights, the United States made full use of its influence in multilateral human rights mechanisms to criticize the human rights situation of some countries.
Since Donald trump came to power, the "painting style" of the United States has suddenly changed, and human rights are no longer a priority of American foreign policy.Mr Trump is a typical realist who believes in "America first".He despised the liberal ideology in American foreign policy and believed that the United States could no longer bear the moral burden of promoting human rights and democratic diplomacy abroad.In his meeting with north Korean leader Kim Jong Un, Trump did not even mention human rights.Not only that, but the United States also provides security for north Korea, a "rogue state" that has "committed long-term and massive human rights violations."This upset the American public opinion.Mr Trump, who has left the values of "freedom, democracy and human rights" behind, certainly does not care about the moral image of the US In fact, from the moment the US announced its withdrawal from the Paris agreement, the so-called common interests of mankind and western values have long given way to "America first".Therefore, the withdrawal of the United States from the human rights council is not a moral burden from the perspective of the Trump administration.Instead, he thinks he can focus on making America great again.
Trump's series of withdrawal actions have caused a storm of public opinion around the world.Praise is mixed.But Trump did it anyway.It was done neatly.This approach is unprecedented in American history.Mr Trump has pushed the idea of America first to the extreme.
FORTH CHAPTER
Practitioner of humanitarianism -- abide by correct immigration policy
For 400 years, the American nation has been a composite of more than 100 nations. Even the statue of liberty, which stands in New York, immigrated from France in 1886.
Attracting immigrants used to be the most important diplomatic mission in the United States. At the beginning of the founding of the United States, the total population of the United States was only 3.9 million.Except for about 760,000 blacks, almost all were white, and most came from Western Europe.Concerned about the Napoleonic wars in Europe and the employment environment at home, the early governments of the United States were suspicious of immigration policies and made some restrictions on immigration.Between 1796 and 1815, the average European immigrant to the United States was only about 3,000 a year.Peace was restored to Europe after the Napoleonic wars.With the demobilization of large Numbers of soldiers and the growing unemployment in Europe, the number of immigrants to the United States has increased year by year.At this time, the United States also because of domestic construction needs, It changed immigration policy.After the revolutions in Europe in 1848, immigration to the United States increased.In the 100 years from 1820 to 1920, about 33.5 million immigrants were admitted to the United States, creating a wave of immigrants that lasted for 100 years.American historians call it the great human migration.The first wave of migration took place between 1820 and 1860, when the total number of migrants reached 5 million.Immigrants mainly came from western and northern Europe, including about 2 million Irish, about 1.7 million Germans, and large numbers of African slaves who were trafficked to the United States.At the same time, a small number of immigrants were from Asia, mainly Chinese, who came to the United States to seek gold.The second wave of immigration was from 1861 to 1880, when about five million immigrants came to the United States.After the end of the civil war, the United States ushered in the peak of industrialization, there apeared a strong demand for labor.In order to attract European immigrants to the United States, President Lincoln lobbied congress to pass the encouragement of immigration act.Secretary Seward even issued a notice to U.S. diplomats in Europe to treat attracting European immigrants as one of the most important diplomatic tasks.To recruit skilled workers from Europe to work in the United States, some companies have organized groups to recruit in Europe.They advertised in many European newspapers, printed pamphlets, and portrayed America's attractive prospects to European immigrants.Some companies also provide travel expenses for europeans willing to immigrate to the United States.The third wave, from 1881 to 1920, immigration soar to 23.5 million.Immigration peaked in 1907 at 1.285million.At this stage, the US government made laws to restrict European immigration and exclude Asian immigrants.The growth of "old immigrants" from Britain, Germany, Sweden and other countries in northwestern Europe was limited, but the "new immigrants" from Italy, Russia and other countries in south-eastern Europe were growing rapidly.After these three waves of immigration, America's population exceeded 100 million for the first time in 1920.Between 1820 and 1920, immigration accounted for more than 20 percent of the annual increase in the U.S. population.Immigrants changed the fate of the United States. The three waves of immigrants in the history of the United States not only had a profound impact on the formation of American national character, but also enabled the United States to rise rapidly in just over 100 years, replacing Britain as the world's top economic power and laying the foundation for its future as a world superpower.It can be said that immigration has made America strong.In the midst of the migration, the United States took advantage, getting thousands of skilled workers from Europe without education and training.According to statistics, about 23% of immigrants from western and northern Europe were skilled workers between 1871 and 1892. They brought industrial technologies such as steel and textile, and became an important technical force of American industrial revolution.In addition, Asian immigrants from countries such as China, Japan and the Philippines brought agricultural and horticultural skills, while Italian immigrants contributed to municipal construction technologies such as gas, electricity and water.Eighty-five per cent of these migrants were aged between 14 and 44 and were mostly male.These immigrants, in their prime, provided labor for the U.S. cotton textile industry, mining, construction, etc.The Irish, Germans, Italians and Nordics were the main force behind the tunnel and rail projects in the eastern United States.In the "westward movement" that changed the political pattern and social outlook of the early United States, the role of Chinese labor was also important.In this movement centered on railway construction, Chinese laborers completed the construction of the western section of the Pacific railway across the United States in an excellent way under extremely difficult and harsh conditions at the cost of blood, sweat and life.To this day, a metal plaque with a Chinese inscription can be seen along the California railway line. It says, "California railway, north and south link up.Chinese spirit, blood dedication.As Ryan Crocker, an advocate of recruiting Chinese workers, put it: "the railway's timely completion owes much to the poor and despised Chinese working class -- to their loyalty and hard work."It became known as the "one-sentence history" of American immigration.After world war ii, with the rationalization of American people's attitudes towards immigration, the contribution of immigrants to the United States was gradually recognized by most Americans.As U.S. secretary of labor Elaine chao put it: "the United States appreciates the contributions of immigrants.The huge wave of immigration has given America a rich cultural heritage, and it has given America a boost.
However, with the development of The Times, the immigrant groups in the United States appear to be not equal, mixed phenomenon.In particular, when terrorism is rampant in the world and corruption and crime erode the country's organism, many bad actors crowd into the United States in the wave of immigration, causing instability in the American society and difficulties in law enforcement in some countries.
Take China as an example.As China ramps up its anti-corruption drive, it has issued red notices to the world for those convicted of corruption, including 100 people.More than 40 people, or 48% of the people, are in the United States.If they were allowed to be whitewashed, wouldn't America be a place for filth?And shouldn't China's rich second generation, who spend lavishly in America, be allowed to show proof of the legitimacy of their wealth?America must not be a haven for criminals to escape punishment.As President Trump said in one of his tweets: illegal immigration is a top national security concern.For decades the United States has managed illegal immigrants like a game.The whole world is laughing at the stupidity of our immigration laws.Now we have to be smart and do what we need to do for the safety and security of this country.
Don't label Trump as anti-immigrant, inhuman, and quite the opposite, he signed documents legalizing 1.2 million Arab refugees, though some of them were stowaways.He is a staunch opponent of illegal immigration and a staunch defender of the security of the United States border, in America's first interest.He no longer wants the American people to tighten their belts and give the lawbreakers cakes when they are hungry.He will no longer do what some countries have done to America's oil, touch his lips and laugh at America's fools.
Banish the terrorists who mingle among the refugees, the corrupt ones who evade punishment, the lazy hoodlums who smuggle across open borders, the opportunists who take advantage of the loopholes in the chain of migration, and the United States of America.
FIFTH CHAPTER
Diligent civil servants -- Trump's selflessness
Trump's diligence can be described as workaholic.Because the mainstream media in the United States has been playing the shameful role of attacking Trump, Trump chose to make his voice reach the people quickly and accurately by tweeting.Trump has more than 60 million followers on Twitter.He tweets every day without a break.Even in the hours of the night.By one count, Trump tweeted more than 3,400 times in 2018 alone.November 5, 2020:200 tweets a day.You can see the degree of diligence.
The Trump White House has a staff of 377, compared to 517 in the previous administration. The Trump White House spent about 37 million dollars, compared to more than 69 million in the previous administration.Mrs Trump has a staff of just four, compared with 47 for the former first lady.Trump only makes $1 a year, and the family business has shrunk nearly $1 billion in four years, compared with $3 million before his predecessor became president and $60 million after four years.
The American people know that, too.He got a solid 75 million votes in the election, a record for any president.
conclusion
As an ordinary Chinese, why write about Trump?Because the US is the only superpower in the world today.The growth or decline of the United States will have a huge impact on the world.When America catches a cold, the world sneezes.Great changes have taken place since the reform and opening up policy.The Chinese people have led a life of ease and comfort never before in history (including 1949-1976).The country has a certain strength.The unrivalled centripetal force of the Chinese people and the powerful driving force of the leadership have made China one of the most important countries in the world.No other country can defeat China, and China never wants to defeat any other country.We just want a peaceful external environment to do our own thing better.We do not want to see America go down the path of serfdom.Do not want to see Americans engage in homosexuality and lose the embarrassment of bearing the next generation, thus losing the demographic dividend;We don't want to see American taxpayers' money being misspent;We don't want to see America's unisex toilets erode their children;We don't want to see America kneel before riots of looting and looting.We don't want to see America flooded with crime and drugs due to the influx of illegal immigrants.We do not want to see the United States under the slogan of political correctness to kill the American tradition of democratic freedom.
The famous thinker Popper said: if we are too ready to admit defeat, we may not find that we are very close to the right.
