Midterms 2022: In Pennsylvania, Donald Trump calls for a red wave, thinking only of his revenge

Three days before the mid-term elections, the former republican president drew up his usual apocalyptic table in the United States on Saturday, during a meeting in a state that could prove to be decisive for the Senate control.

The arrival bore his signature, closer to a wrestler approaching a ring than a former president concentrated on the mid-term elections, scheduled in three days. The Boeing 757 said “Trump Force One” skirted the track of Latrobe airport (Pennsylvania) on Saturday October 5 to park in the axis of the cameras, just behind the stage and the desk. Thousands of people have been waiting for hours on the Tarmac for hours. They had politely applauded the republican candidate for the post of senator – Doctor Mehmet Oz – and that as Governor – Doug Mastriano, who always pushes long “Oh Yeah!” When he salutes the public. The latter was especially waiting for Donald Trump. The night had fallen when he introduced himself. The soundtrack had just passed Real American, from Rick Derringer, and Pinball Wizard, of Who. The mobile phones, at arm’s length, seized the entry of the “King Maga” (Make America Great Again, his slogan), an expression he himself used.

To “stop the destruction of our country”, Donald Trump called on voters to provoke “a giant red wave” on Tuesday during midterms. It is not a surprise, the speaker remains locked in the past. He does not digest his defeat against Joe Biden in 2020, who remains the matrix of his current commitment. “The election was rigged and stolen, and one cannot let it happen again,” he said, warning that any new underperformance could have no other explanation than manipulations. Donald Trump has also requested a change in voting rules, even though more than 39 million bulletins have already been filed, as part of the early procedures, in person or by mail. Wish at him a reinforced identification of voters, a ballot in a single day and paper bulletins, both a full back and a nightmare for the counting.

Donald Trump drew up his usual apocalyptic table in the United States under Democratic administration. “The only thing they do well is disinformation and electoral fraud,” he summed up. “Despite external dangers, he added, the greatest threat remains sick, sinister and diabolical people in our country”, in reference to the left. Trump returned to inflation, “the wide open border” with Mexico which would have enabled “10 million illegal immigrants”, not 2.5 million, according to official figures this year. “Our country falls into hell in so many different ways,” said Donald Trump, whose long general diatriber lasted almost an hour, without almost never mentioning the Pennsylvania, where he was. Two sequences in this part of the speech have hardly raised the enthusiasm of the crowd and seemed in full time with the emergency of the moment, the mobilization of the republican camp before the midterms.
