Donald Trump’s legacy as President of the United States is sure to be widely discussed for many years, regardless of whether it is remembered positively or negatively. But what will the immediate aftermath of his final battle look like?
The first thing to address is the type of battle Trump is engaged in. In recent years, he has been more determined than ever to promote his brand of conservatism and to rollback certain protections and regulations, often without regard for those affected. This has included immigration, health care, and environmental laws, policies and regulations. His battles could also extend into economic, trade and foreign policy issues. Regardless, Trump’s battles will likely go down in history as some of his most memorable.
The next step is to consider the possible outcome and fallout from Trump’s final battle. Depending on the severity of the fight, Trump’s legacy may be viewed harshly or rather positively. In either case, the President will soon have to face the verdict of history, leaving behind a legacy that could be all for the better or create a bitter legacy.
No matter the strength of the President’s fight, the most immediate outcome after his defeat will surely be the new beginning of the U.S. government. Of course, the incoming President will have a major say in the course of the nation, and the presence of a new commander-in-chief will strongly affect the country’s direction. Additionally, Congress will have a greater say in what happens in the nation, which may result in lawmaking and other policy changes.
Moreover, the results of Donald Trump’s battles are likely to come into play beyond the immediate transition of power. Depending on the outcome, citizens may respond with joy or dismay over what transpired. One of the most important effects, however, could be seen in voter turnout during the midterms and the next presidential election. A lack of faith in the government could lead to an overall decrease in support and enthusiasm, which would translate to a decreased desire to participate in the electoral process.
The legacy of Donald Trump’s final battle will remain an ongoing conversation and a topic of debate for some time. But for the immediate future, the focus will likely remain on the transition of power and the adaptation of our government to the new reality. No matter the result of Trump’s final battle, the United States of America will remain a beacon of hope and a source of progress for many years to come.
