WASHINGTON
The world will not be free of Donald Trump even though the result has been called in the US presidential election. Until he leaves the White House on January 20th next year, he will continue to claim the election was stolen and the victory of Democrat challenger Joe Biden fraudulent.
During Trump’s remaining time in office he intends to fight tooth and nail to build on his destructive legacy by reversing progressive policies, putting conservative Republicans in federal judgeships and other key positions, and firing senior civil servants. From now until inauguration day will be very dangerous period for the US itself and the world at large.
Trump has always refused to become a loser and has constructed a fantasy universe where he is always the winner. Furthermore, the Republican party and his “base” of supporters have encouraged his myth-making. Consequently, once out of office he is unlikely to concede the election and get out of our faces in news cycles and on social media. There will be little relief from omnipresent Trump, the third one-term president since Republican Herbert Hoover was defeated by Democrat Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1932.
Although Trump has lost this election, Trump is in a strong position to create trouble. He increased the number of votes he received from nearly 63 million in 2016 to 70.6 million in 2020.
