Charles Laffiteau's Bigger Picture
All I can do is offer some insights that might help you better understand why US President Donald Trump continues to make outrageous statements that create turmoil both inside and outside the White House.
The World At Home: Charles Laffiteau's Bigger Picture
Trump is a boon for terrorism
For a change, there is a president who is fulfilling the promises he made before his election. Indeed, the very promises that you would have thought should have costed him the election. Of course I’m talking about Donald Trump, who made all the wrong promises but won the race to The White House.
US travel ban is only good for terrorism
In late January, US President Donald Trump signed an executive order barring citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the United States – and suspending indefinitely the acceptance of refugees from war-torn Syria. Highlighting the rationale, if any, behind these new strict measures, President Trump said they were aimed at keeping radical Islamic terrorists out of the US.
Charles Laffiteau's Bigger Picture
If nothing else, during his first few weeks in office President Donald Trump has already succeeded in rattling both friends and foes alike in America and around the world. While it remains to be seen if his frenetic pace and chaotic management style will lead to the kind of change his supporters are hoping for, all of his executive orders and adversarial tweets are aimed at solidifying the support of the older, less-educated white voters who put him in office. In other words, there is a method to President Trump’s madness.
The World At Home : Charles Laffiteau's Bigger Picture
In contrast to some of his other cabinet appointments, US President Donald Trump’s choices to run our country’s intelligence, national security and defence establishments all possessed the kind of government and military experience that one would expect the leaders of these key organisations to have. However, even though Trump’s top foreign policy choice has no such experience, I actually think Rex Tillerson may turn out to be one of the most inspired cabinet selections.
Charles Laffiteau's Bigger Picture
Donald Trump won the US presidential election because he succeeded in feeding the same unrealistic expectations of mature white voters with lower levels of education that Michael Gove, Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage stoked in order to persuade their British counterparts to vote for Brexit. Both Trump and the Brexit champions blamed the declining economic fortunes of their countries’ blue-collar workers on immigration and companies shifting manufacturing jobs abroad
An Outside View/Léargas Taobh Amuigh
Ceann de na rudaí is mó a tháinig aniar aduaidh le linn mhíonna na toghchánaíochta sna Stáit Aontaithe ná an dóigh ar thug Cumannaigh agus radacaigh áirithe eile ón eite chlé in áiteanna tacaíocht do Donald Trump thar Hillary Clinton. Shílfeá go mbeadh a leithéidí go tréan in aghaidh Trump, ach ní mar a shíltear a bhítear. Ba é Slavoj Žižek, an t-íolbhristeoir Slóivéanach, ba luaithe a théigh le Trump, ach tá an Domhan Thiar breac le mionintleachtóirí a thugas aird ar a chuid focal mar a bheadh briathar Dé iontu.
America’s folly
An Irish university lecturer has advocated total reform of the candidate selection process following the election of controversial celebrity Donald Trump as US president.
Charles Laffiteau's Bigger Picture
Donald Trump’s success in feeding the unrealistic expectations of older and less educated white voters is the same strategy that Michael Gove, Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage used to persuade their counterparts in the UK to vote for Brexit. But before I discuss the parallels between these two elections, I want first to cover how close Trump came to losing.
