Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.
After winning the May 3 primary election in Indiana against senator Ted Cruz and Ohio governor John Kasich, billionaire Donald Trump will almost certainly become the official candidate of the Republican Party.
The withdrawal of the two opponents later left the real estate tycoon free to focus on dealing with the `big opponent` of the Democratic Party, who will likely be former US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, according to Slate.
Veteran political commentator Jeremy Stahl said that Mr. Trump’s victory speech signals a general attack campaign by the Republican candidate against Mrs. Clinton, the main content of the attack will revolve around trade.
`She won’t be a great president. She’ll be a poor president. She doesn’t understand trade and her husband (former president Bill Clinton) probably signed one of the agreements
According to Stahl, Mr. Trump seems to have discovered his strength in trade and employment since March with statements affirming that he will be the most chosen candidate of the American working class and the only
`Apple and other large American corporations will manufacture their products in the United States, not in China or any other country,` Mr. Trump declared.
Thanks to that, billionaire Trump has won significant support from Republican voters, as they believe that he is the only person who has an advantage over the former US Secretary of State on trade issues and has the ability to fight.
And now, the Republican candidate is continuing to thoroughly exploit the issue by attacking Mrs. Clinton’s policies and statements related to the energy sector.
`I watched her speak three or four weeks ago, she talked about miners as if they were just numbers. She wants to close the mines and not put the workers to work. And
The door is narrow
Slate.fr expert Bérengère Viennot said that overall, Mr. Trump is unlikely to win against the Democratic candidate.
On May 3, to atone for her statement asking the mines to close and to improve her image in the eyes of workers, Mrs. Clinton went on a two-day trip to the eastern Apalache Mountains, where
During the trip, Mrs. Clinton promised to bring jobs to eastern Apalache and help people in the region adapt to a wave of coal industry bankruptcies and changes in the energy market.
In addition, the former US Secretary of State, who enthusiastically supported the free trade agreement between the US and 11 members in the Asia Pacific region, is asking to reconsider the TPP.
According to a recent Bloomberg report, up to two-thirds of Americans oppose trade liberalization, and 44% evaluate that the economic policy under former President Bill Clinton with the Free Trade Agreement
`Billionaire Trump has very little chance of winning against the Democratic candidate. However, if he knows how to take advantage, trade and employment will be the only areas that can help the real estate tycoon gain an advantage over the former candidate.
