Volume 13 Moral Controversy Chapter 13 Political Storms

...The United States ushered in a new and universal prediction from the outside world. The Republicans followed the election, and the Democratic Party, which had long been ready to take action, will enter the White House again, and won a great victory in the congressional election held at the same time, but the actual situation is very different. Landers won by the advantage of not being defended, and the Republican Party retained a weak majority in the House of Representatives, but became a minority party in the Senate.

This election, Duyan can be described as "drama".

Before the election, the Republican Party continued to make money on security issues, advocating the expansion of national defense investment in the form of deficit spending and ensuring the global interests of the United States. Although the United States suffered a loss in the Middle East War and its national strength was far inferior to before, in the context of the Sino-US Cold War, the Republican Party's "security card" has a very market. According to the survey of some private institutions, if the Democrats still make money on economics and cannot take a tough stance on foreign policy and satisfy the appetite of voters, then the Democrats are likely to lose the election. In fact, when the Democrats prepare for the election, they put economic issues aside, and the Republican Party is more like the Republican Party.

, regard national security and national influence as the main competition slogan. Because of the correct measures, the elected presidential candidate was General Petraeus, who served as the highest commander of the coalition in Iraq and Afghanistan, and his partner was Bruderlyn, who served as Secretary of State in the Westwood administration. There were also well-known Democratic politicians such as Duchway, Nevid, Copperfield, and Shesfield in the campaign team. Therefore, the Democratic Party's public support rate was once as high as rigorous before the election, and it also jumped above the lowest. In the history of the United States, no political party has lost the election without having public support rate before the election.

At the beginning of the Liao year, almost everyone believes that the Democratic Party needs only time to win the election

.

At the end of March, CBS's "Night News. Program revealed a news that the Democratic Vice Presidential candidate Brudering was evading military service when he was young and cut off several military equipment programs for partisan interests during Westwood's administration, which posed serious hidden dangers to the United States' military strength and national security, and was the main reason why the United States did nothing in the subsequent wars.

At this time, the election took a dramatic change.

In the next about the thug months, although Brudering confirmed that he was not evading military service, but that he was born with scoliosis and could not serve as a normal person, when he testified in Congress, Brudering could not explain why he overstealed the Ministry of Defense's military equipment development program and cut project funds without the president's permission.

The problem is, this is not understood yet.

In the early Ming Dynasty, CBS once again broke the news in "Night News" that while serving as the supreme commander of the coalition forces in Iraq and UAE, Petraeus was suspected of collecting benefits provided by the Iraqi and Afghanistan provisions, and putting the US military and coalition officers and soldiers in unnecessary combat risks.

Compared with the allegations against Bruderly, if the news from CBS Polo is true, Petraeus will not only be unlikely to participate in the election as a Democratic presidential candidate, but also likely will be handed over to a military court and spend the rest of his life in jail.

Of course, CBS is not a court, and news reports are not a criminal sentence.

.

Although at the end of the month, Petraeus proved that he did not receive benefits from the provisional governments of Iraq and Afghanistan, he only accepted private gifts from the presidents of both countries during his tenure, because the value of the gifts received was less than four dollars, so Petraeus did not report this situation when he returned to China to report his work. According to relevant American laws, Petraeus does not need to report the relevant situation. In other words, he did not violate the law nor did he violate the United States.

According to the military regulations, CBS was spreading rumors. After the hearing, Petraeus commissioned a Democratic lawyer to sue CBS for defamation. However, at the hearing, Petraeus did not reasonably explain the several combat operations mentioned by CBS that caused hundreds of casualties to the coalition forces, which was impossible to prove that he did not do anything that violated the interests of the United States when he was the Supreme Commander of the coalition forces.

The problem is here.

Although according to relevant American laws, Petraeus does not need to release any person except the president for the military decisions he made when he was commander of the coalition, and Congress is no exception. Therefore, even if Petraeus cannot give a satisfactory reply at a Congressional hearing that will satisfy members of Congress, it will not be punished. However, the Congressional hearing itself is not a legal trial, and it is more about allowing Petraeus to explain his past behavior. In other words, if Petraeus cannot give an answer at the hearing, he will not be able to receive support from voters.

This incident shows how chaotic the political situation in the United States is.

You should know that it was Republican President Bush who launched the Afghan War and Iraq War that year, and it was also President Bush who appointed Petraeus as the supreme commander of the coalition forces in Iraq. Although Petraeus is not a Republican, the Republican Party can be described as "shameless". The new address of this site has been changed to: Chat the 0十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十十

The problem is that American voters won't care about this.

No matter what, the thug Bush moved into the White House afterwards, and the Democratic president who asked Petraeus to Afghanistan to rescue the emergency was also the Democratic president.

Although after the Congressional hearing, Democratic Shandao fought back and began to expose the scars of the Republican Party. For example, the reason why Bush Jr. launched the Issoneba fight was not valid at all, and oil companies controlled by the Bush family and energy companies related to the Bush family gained immeasurable benefits, few American voters look forward to history. As long as Peter Leus cannot prove that he did not let the coalition officers and soldiers die because of personal problems, it will be difficult for the Democratic Party to believe that this former commander-in-chief of the coalition forces could lead the United States to defeat more enemies.

That's right, two months before the election, the Democratic Party's approval rating fell sharply.

Although the Democratic Party's desperate counterattack before the election won some support, when voting, there were still many "falcon" voters who voted for Landers. As a result, Landers was elected with only two electoral votes by the US election, which was an indirect election. Tiangezhou and Washington, DC had a total of nephew electoral votes. As long as more than half of the electoral votes were obtained, they could be elected. In recent years, Landers only received about the votes from the Goose House, which was the same as Bush Jr. in the four elections. He became an election without the majority of voters' support.

General.

This election definitely plays an important role in the history of the United States.

For the Republicans, winning the general election does not mean winning everything. In the Senate election, the Republicans lost several extremely critical seats in several Northeastern states, so in the Senate, the Republicans became a minority. As we all know, the US Senate has a great influence, so many of Landers' policies will be blocked in the Senate and are even forced to make major adjustments to the main policies.

The real change comes from the Democratic Party.

Although at that time, no Democrat would have thought of getting a chance to make a comeback in just four years, after all, no one expected that a war that continued to fight against the Republican Party for more than a month would break the voters' fantasy of the Republican Party, forcing the Republican Party to fully cope with Tongnian's election. However, after losing this election that should not have been won, two completely different voices appeared within the Democratic Party. Traditional Democratic politicians like Brudering advocated keeping a low profile and began to prepare for the next election. Hard-line Democratic politicians represented by Petraeus had different views. They believed that losing the election was not because the Republican Party was too strong, but because the Democratic Party itself had problems. They should use this religion to carry out drastic reforms on the Democratic Party. In fact, it is an analysis of conservatism and reform.

If it's just an argument, it's no big deal.

The problem is that the debate eventually becomes a disagreement, and the disagreement eventually becomes a rift.

Break is inevitable.

At the beginning of the year, the day Landers took the oath to serve as US president for the second time, Petraeus announced his separation from the Democratic Party and established the "New Democratic Party." The later "New Democratic Party" was also known as the "New Democratic Party". Several influential politicians also announced their separation from the Democratic Party at the same time as Petraeus announced their separation from the Democratic Party, including the incumbent members of the House of Representatives and seven incumbent members of the Senate. In this way, in the Isle of the Isle, the Republican Party not only expanded its lead in the House of Representatives, but also became the largest party in the Senate.

It can be said that when Petraeus established the "DPP" in Xuannian, the whole world shivered.

You should know that the United States is a typical representative of "two-party politics", and it is the most perfect and perfect country. Although in the history of the United States, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party have not always been ruled in turn. For example, in the early days of the founding of the United States, only the Federal Democratic Party and the Republican Party originated from the Federal Party, followed by the predecessor of the Democratic Republican Party, and then the Whig Republican Party. Even after World War II, there was still a third party in the United States, that is, the Green Party with very little influence. However, except for the early days of the founding of the country, only two kilograms of political parties were truly capable of winning the throne of president at any time.

With the founding of the Democratic League, the political situation in the United States has entered an era of three-legged stalemate from a battle between two powerful people.

Although in the eyes of many people, the Democratic Party will not be the ruling party in the short term. It will take at least a year or even longer to win the same influence as the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, and win in the general election. More importantly, the Democratic Party has been hit hard and will not be able to recover for a long time in the future, so it will not be able to challenge the Republican Party. Therefore, almost all political commentators believe that in the general election in the 20th year, the Republican Party will definitely win. Some political commentators even assert that Mrs. Lobring will run for the Republican Party on behalf of the Republican Party in the year of Daoye and become the first female president of the United States. However, some people still believe that the Republican Party cannot occupy the White House for a long time, and the newly established Democratic Party is not a political force that can be underestimated. You must know that in this newly established political party,

Not only do he have a hard-line leader task like Piedeus, but he also has outstanding politicians and executives like Nevid and Copperfield. What is more worthy of attention is that Duchewie, who has no influence at all, also announced his separation from the Democratic Party and joining the Democratic Party in March of the year. In other words, the multifaceted nature of the main members of the Democratic Party allows this new party to not only win over a large number of Democratic Party loyalties, but also win over some Republican Party loyalties. Compared with the comments made by ABC on Duchewie's re-entering Democratic Party, as a party with the ultimate goal of entering the White House, the Democratic Party only lacks the last key factor, that is, a politician with the ability to govern the country and strong appeal. There are not many such politicians in the United States.

Looking back on history, the one that really fits these two standards is Franklin Roosevelt. Although after World War II, many outstanding politicians emerged in the United States, such as Kennedy and Clinton, these politicians are either short-lived or flawed, and are definitely not perfect. Of course, it cannot be said that the United States lacks excellent politicians. The so-called early heroes of the times will only appear heroic tasks that affect history under the appropriate historical context, and great politicians can appear.

In fact, the United States is in such an era. The new address of this site has been changed to: 0, Wei Gong Shan, please read it!

Regardless of the criteria, Landers was only considered a very mediocre politician. Re-election only extended his time in the White House and did not provide him with more performances.

.

The problem is that Randxin is not a politician who is willing to be lonely.

During the first term, because he wanted to seek re-election, Landers did not dare to act randomly on many issues and respected his staff very much, especially Mrs. Lobring's suggestions and opinions, and almost handed over the power to manage the country to the Secretary of State and other officials. After being re-elected, because there was no pressure for re-election, Landers no longer attached so much importance to Mrs. Lobring and began to reuse a group of White House aides, wanting to do a big fight in Hejian.

As you can imagine, Mrs. Lobring, who is still staying in the State Council, is in a very embarrassing situation.

What is even more ironic is that in order to ensure policy consistency, Landers rarely issued orders from the White House, but instead took a turn to let Mrs. Lobring issue orders from the State Department. The problem is that Mrs. Lobring's political talent is definitely not comparable to that of Landers. Mrs. Lobring is very clear about Landers' intentions. Because almost everyone believes that the severely damaged Democratic Party and the newly born Democratic New Year party cannot pose a threat to the Republican Party in the general election in the 20th year, the Republican Party does not need a

A talented politician like Mrs. Lobring. Just like the general election in Lilien, as long as a clear-headed normal person can win the election on behalf of the Republican Party. There is no doubt that politicians like Landers are increasingly being influenced by interest groups. Instead, politicians like Lady Lobring can cause trouble for the interest groups. In other words, it is not Landers who want to suppress Mrs. Lobring, but those White House aides who are around Landers who speak for the interest groups want to deal with Mrs. Lobring.

The president and the secretary of state do not match, and the result can be imagined.

Fortunately, the Middle East War had just ended, and the Republican authorities were also fighting openly and secretly for the election of the first year. Several other countries that were able to cause trouble for the United States had their own problems to be resolved, so when the United States was infighting, they were not threatened by the outside world. From another perspective, it was the foreign threat that suddenly disappeared, allowing the American people in power, that is, those interest groups that truly control the United States, to focus their energy on internal struggles. If it were before the old year, let alone the ruling party had an internal strife, even the opposition party would not mess around with issues involving the fundamental interests of the country.

It can be said that this is a close political struggle.

Landers has the authority of the president, and Mrs. Lobring has extraordinary political talents.

The problem is that in this political struggle, Mrs. Lobring will never get the initiative. More importantly, this is an internal strife that is not good for the United States. Really conscious politicians know that the Secretary of State will definitely lose a lot of losses when fighting with the president. For example, during the time of Bush Jr. as president, the first Secretary of State was Powell, who helped him beat Saddam in the Gulf War. As we all know, Bush Jr. is similar to Landers, and he is also a politician with little Chinese. Although Bawley is a soldier, he has extraordinary political talents. Many Americans use

In his eyes, Bush, the most politically savvy soldier after Marshall and Eisenhower, was re-elected. He drove Powell away and let former national security Gu Rice go to the State Department. In other words, Bush failed to beat Bush Jr. Compared with Powell, Mrs. Lobring's situation was much better. At least at the time, because the Democratic Party has not yet split and may even win the general election, Landers not only dared not sweep Mrs. Lobring out like Bush Jr., but also had to let Mrs. Lobring continue to join the campaign team as Secretary of State.

The struggle lasted until the bottom of four, which was when the election was approaching again.

Although Mrs. Lobring had been busy coping with Landes' challenge in the past three years, as Secretary of State, she still managed the US federal government in an orderly manner and achieved many diplomatic achievements, such as stabilizing the already shaky Egypt and Jordan. In general, Mrs. Lobring's performance in the past three years was still outstanding, but because the US authorities had no fighting spirit, they did not achieve world-renowned achievements.

Just when almost all Americans believed that Mrs. Lobring would represent the Republican Party to participate in the following year's grandfather, the strong woman who had worked in the State Department for 8 years suddenly resigned on the grounds of being healthy. The thugs, the manor outside Henderson, announced that she would accept the invitation from Petraeus and Duchway to join the Democratic Party and form a campaign team with Petraeus.

Only then will the political storm in the United States truly come.
