When Donald Trump comes back to the White House, he plays on everyone's nose. Media, experts, their own coworkers. In fact, there's not a day to surprise him with a decision. We wake up in the morning and see what the president of the United States has come up with this time. besides often, the question has to be... is the pilot coming with us?
Let's go to the White House. Remember erstwhile Trump was gathering people and organizing his surroundings for a second term? The list of names was more like a plebiscite to the most controversial figure, not an administration to regulation the power. Trump's squad was on the move.
Trump can only stop... Trump?
And billionaires with Elon Musk at the head, with whom Trump so eagerly appeared at his swearing-in in Washington. There's nothing to cheat about – they are Trump's natural environment.
– He focuses quite a few another people who push him more into utmost action. Trump is simply a very independent individual and after winning the election he felt he had full power. She believes that she has a immense mandate for American society, so it is improbable that anything will halt him, but himself," says Magdalena Górnicka-Partyka, a political marketing expert in the US, author of the "Stan Wyborczy" podcast.
Can Trump even be stopped? Or be a "brake" that works like a fuse erstwhile the president wants to do something on his own? It's hard to say clearly, but there are at least 2 names.
– The only individual I can think of at first is Susie Wiles, chief of staff at Donald Trump's office. On the 1 hand, she manages who has direct access to the president and is behind the fact that in the course of his run he limits himself to certain subjects. For example, don't repeat his opinion on the 2020 "stealed" elections. This subject disappeared due to Susie Wiles – explains Górnicka-Party.
It was Wiles who was to be designated "brake". But it's not precisely that it has a large impact on what's happening around Trump right now. – Wiles is present everywhere and keeps his hand on the pulse. Full of 1 of the most crucial roles in the White House. It determines who the president is meeting, keeping an eye on his calendar. It besides affects who it appoints to individual positions. But we do not know how much it can be this brake," the expert adds.
Trump's Humor changes overnight. Not long ago, he appeared at all rally with Musk, who became his key associate. They were wearing red hats, driving Tesla. all time it was a show. Nothing seemed to shake that friendship.
"Trump will never admit it"
And yet Trump reportedly wants to get Musk out of his office. This decision is to be partially due to the increasing frustration among officials and allies of the administration, who increasingly see Musk as a political burden due to his unpredictability. In this tenure, there were times erstwhile sparks flew through the Kuluaras. Trump was expected to watch in silence.
It just shows that in the White home structures under Trump's leadership no 1 can feel safe. Even those who in explanation received full freedom from the President.
– Another individual who was going to halt Trump is Marco Rubio. The function of Secretary of State is prestigious, but Trump conducts abroad policy in fact disregarding Rubio. There is besides Steven Witkoff, who was to be an emissary for the mediate East and deals with Russia, Ukraine and Iran, as quoted by the author of the podcast "Stan Wyborczy".
Problem is, they're tiny pieces of this puzzle in Washington. – Trump ignores people who could slow down his decisions, although he will never admit it, due to the fact that he likes to mention Rubio in his speeches. He agrees with everything Trump does – she notes on Thematic.
Some of the "brakes" utilized to be loud, present they're in the shadows. Like Michael Waltz, safety advisor. – He fell into disrepute after a scandal with a leak on the Signal, but he is heavy imprisoned in the Republican Party. He worked for Donald Rumsfeld, so he is not a individual who has been promoted very strongly, joining the MAGA (Make America large Again - ed.) – recalls Górnicka-Partyka.
Waltz knew Trump's administration before. Theoretically, he knew what he was getting into due to the fact that he had to be aware of how it worked. But there's a catch here. “Even the president of hard Republicans can skillfully skip,” says the expert.
"This is simply a wedge, or even blackmail"
There's something else to notice. Trump upped the pace in making his own decisions in his second term. And ignoring signals that might slow him down.
– In their first term, in addition to the people around them, Trump sometimes slowed down media. Now it's not truly working, due to the fact that he's waged war on all the conventional media. He does not care what they compose about him, due to the fact that he prefers fresh media, podcasters or streamers – says Górnicka-Partyka.
The people in the White home who may have a real impact on Trump stay fundamentally a handful. The minute Musk keeps handing out cards with the president, it's hard to get any cracks in those structures. due to the fact that yet Trump can do things his own way.
– We have Elona Muska there who says that if a Republican opposes Trump, he will finance the start in the primaries of his opponent. It's like a wedge, or actually blackmailing Republicans – says Górnicka-Party.
Trump's shortsightedness can shock most of all. No 1 took his pre-election announcement seriously that he could, for example, end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours. erstwhile he has a real chance to negociate with Russia from the position of US leader, it has only come to light how helpless he is about it. He could not even openly condemn the fresh bloody attacks on the city of Sumy.
And the fresh customs war is only the beginning of dragging the line on a full fresh front. Knowing Trump, he can change his head a fewer more times about it.
