On the 8th, the Federal Investigation Bureau raided the Haihu Manor of the former President Trump's residence on the 8th, and then Trump criticized Democrats in a large space on social media. In the past few days, Republicans have spoiled to blame the Democratic Party of "political persecution", and the Democratic and Republican parties are tense.

The political and legal struggle around Trump's previous controversial behavior is only part of the fierce struggle between democracy and republics. As the mid -2022 election approaches, the two parties will inevitably launch a fierce battle, which will further exacerbate US political polarization and tear.

"Soujia" ignite the gunpowder barrel

Trump issued a statement on the 8th that Haihu Manor was surrounded and searched by a large number of federal investigating bureau on the same day. Trump's lawyers revealed to the US media that investigators took away more than ten boxes, and the search order showed that they were investigating Trump's related behaviors when Trump left the White House in January 2021. Trump said that he had previously cooperated with the work of relevant federal government agencies, but Haihu Manor was still searched, which was "unnecessary and inappropriate."

The White House subsequently stated that President Biden did not know, and said that "the investigation was independently completed by the US Department of Justice." US Minister of Justice Merrick Galan said on the 11th that he personally approved a search order to the court and implemented a search for the Haihu Manor, and the search involved "huge public interests."

In the history of the United States, there have never been a former president who was "searching for a criminal investigation." Former US Federal Prosecutor Neya Rahmani believes that the matter is equivalent to lit a "political gunpowder barrel".

In the past few days, Republicans almost questioned and criticized the Federal Investigation Bureau's actions to searches Haihu Manor. Trump accused Democrats accusing Democrats a "political attack" against the US judicial system as a weapon. Kevin McCarthy, leader of the Republican House of Representatives, warned that if the Republican Party regained the control of the House of Representatives in the mid -term elections this year, it would immediately supervise the US Department of Justice and "name" Galan.

The "Soujia" operation also triggered a fierce response from Trump's supporters. Some supporters went to Haihu Manor to support Trump at the scene, and there were even threats to federal law enforcement officers on the Internet.

When the Republicans accused the Republicans publicly, Democrats said that no one could override the law. The US Department of Justice had the right to investigate the improper behavior of Trump's processing confidential documents.

The historian Douglas Blinsley, a historian who quoted the president of Rice University in the United States on the 9th, reported that the search operation "let our political culture enter an emergency alert mode", "We are in this In the new civil war of the country, this is an unprecedented moment in American history. "

Party struggle exacerbates political tear

Some analysts believe that this time Trump's "search" is only less than three months before the mid -2022 elections in the United States. Democrats can make trouble before the midterm elections, but Republicans may also use the matter to counterattack. The New York Times website article said that the incident may be a "high -risk gambling".

For a long time, due to the interests of election politics and group, party struggle has always been the theme of American politics, and the year of election year and midterm elections is even more obvious.

In 2022, the US midterm elections will be re -elected House of Representatives, some senators, and some governors. Since the 2020 election has lost the position of presidential and the control of Congress, the Republicans have vowed to recapture the first house of the Congress in this year's election, while Democrats must guarantee the two hospitals. In addition, the mid -term election is still a "small test" of the current government's governance, and even in a sense, it is regarded as a vane of the 2024 presidential election.

It is worth noting that Trump's support in the Republican Party is still not low, which may have a significant impact on midterm elections. The latest polls of the Political News Website of the United States show that after the "search" incident, 57%of Republican voters and Independent voters tend to Republicans said that if the primaries in 2024 are held today, they will vote to Trump to Trump to Trump Essence This ratio has reached the highest value in recent months.

Since the beginning of this year, the two parties have repeatedly played many fierce games on the focus of division of constituencies, female abortion rights, gun control, and immigration. It is also the focus of the two parties' confrontation around Trump's political and legal struggles.

At present, in addition to the investigation of Trump's inappropriate documents on Trump's processing confidential documents, Trump also faces the investigation of the House of Representatives and the respective Congress of the House of Representatives and the US Department of Justice, as well as the civil investigation of its business behavior of the New York State Prosecutor's Office Essence As these investigations have gradually advanced and the midterm elections are approaching, the disputes between the two parties will intensify.

In recent years, the United States has been in a severe polarization state, and the intensification of the party's competition has also made the United States tear deeper.

A recent poll of the Pedou Research Center shows that more and more people of democracy and republics not only have a negative attitude towards the other party's political position, but also do not agree with the character and intelligence of the opponent's parties.In addition, there are signs that young American people are becoming more and more disappointed in the United States and the two parties themselves.Eurasian Group President Ian Bremo wrote that democracy and republics were led by people with a high national support rate and incited public opinion on a large number of political issues of the country, which caused the legitimacy of the political system to be questioned.Former US President Reagan once called American democracy as "a dazzling city on the top of the mountain", but now the city is breaking through the inside.
