Attack on Republican White House candidate tends to strengthen Joe Biden’s opponent, who is already falling in the rankings, writes Ricardo Melo
Investigations are ongoing. There have now been deaths and injuries. Former US President Donald Trump was shot during a rally in Pennsylvania.
The perpetrators? It will all depend on the pace of the elections. However, it is undeniable that the incident greatly favors the former president.
Joe Biden, the current opponent, has been falling in the rankings. Not even the Democrats are betting a penny on his candidacy.
Defections around his name are growing daily. Donors have locked up their coffers if Biden remains in the race.
The global repercussions are clear. A Trump victory would strengthen a right-wing that has been suffering defeats around the world.
France, United Kingdom, Bolivia, Mexico, Brazil, etc. Of course, there are exceptions like the crazy guy who won in Argentina.
But the US is still the greatest power. Its commander dictates directions and makes decisions that influence the rest of the Western world.
Yes, there is China, but the clash is ongoing with nothing resolved.
The facts are still hot.
Trump comes out on top, for now. From defendant in a dozen lawsuits, he becomes candidate to victim.
A disaster for those who want progress and a more civilized world.
