After Trump's election, the United States may face five major changes
The New York Times predicts that after Trump returns to power, there may be five major changes in the direction of American politics.
1. Strengthen presidential power: Trump's return to the White House is likely to shift the balance of power by increasing presidential power in federal government departments that operate independently of the White House, and by placing more "own people".
2. Hitting political opponents: Mr. Trump is likely to "use the power of the presidency to retaliate against perceived political enemies", starting with Mr. Biden and his family, who he has said would appoint a special counsel to "go after" if re-elected.
3. Strict control of immigration: For Trump, cracking down on illegal immigration has been one of his core policies. Stephen Miller, Trump's chief immigration adviser, said that the Trump second administration will deport illegal immigrants on a large scale and expects to deport more than 1 million people from the United States every year.
4. Large-scale taxation: Trump plans to impose new tariffs on most imports, with new import taxes generally at a rate of 10%. The New York Times pointed out that the consequences of doing so will not only raise prices in the United States, but also may trigger a global trade war, harming the interests of American exporters.
5. Alienating European allies: After Trump takes office, it is likely to alienate traditional European allies, weaken NATO, and even directly lead the United States to withdraw from NATO.
