The journalist just returned from the United States, where he has covered the recent North American elections in which donald trump has been a clear winner.
“You just returned from covering the American elections from Washington, is it true that there were businesses protected in case altercations occurred after the elections?” he asked Pablo Motos.
Vallés told him that it was true, “but less than four years agothat absolutely all the businesses in downtown Washington were covered with wood to avoid altercations.”
“You might think that this year there was less fear of violent incidents, even so The political climate in the United States is very unbreathable“he noted.
He also stressed that it had not been a surprise that Donald Trump won the elections this year against Kamala Harrisbut yes, 2016 was surprising.
The host of the program asked him: “What escapes us from here that we do not understand how Americans can vote massively for someone like Trump?”
“Americans have elected a president who lies very naturally and, in part, that has led him to be where he is,” the guest responded.
“Trump has been able to read how anti-politics is advancingdespising all politicians, has come to represent the feelings of millions of Americans who live worried about economic uncertainty, immigration and movement woke up“said the journalist.
They also talked about the defeat of the Democratic party and the surprising turn that the Latino vote had taken towards Trumpwhich is fighting against immigration.
“Probably, it is a mix of situations, the delay in leaving Biden’s party has had a lot to do with it, the profile of Kamala Harris that has not convinced and the large abstention of Democratic voters,” he said on the first question.
Regarding the second, he noted that “There is a large group of Latino immigrants who have bought Trump’s speech in which he says that the massive arrival of immigrants puts immigrants who are already in the country in a bad light, because they would work for less money and would take away opportunities.
“And what is going to happen to the pending cases that Trump has with justice?”he wanted to know Motorcycles. “It is very difficult, he will have immunity once he is president and that will stay in a drawer sine die“Vallés admitted.
To conclude the topic, the Valencian asked him about How Trump’s victory will affect Europeans: “First of all, tariffs on imports from Europe.”
