TechFlow News — On November 6, according to Jinshi News citing The New York Times, if Donald Trump returns to power, U.S. politics may undergo five major changes:
1. Expansion of presidential power: Upon returning to the White House, Trump is likely to shift the balance of power by increasing presidential control over federal agencies that currently operate independently, and by appointing more loyalists into key positions.
2. Targeting political opponents: Trump is expected to "use presidential power to retaliate against perceived political enemies," with current President Joe Biden and his family being the primary targets. Previously, Trump stated that if re-elected, he would appoint a special prosecutor to "investigate" Biden and his family.
3. Strict immigration crackdown: Cracking down on illegal immigration has long been one of Trump’s core policies. Stephen Miller, Trump’s chief immigration advisor, said a second Trump administration would carry out mass deportations, aiming to remove over one million people from the United States annually.
4. Imposing broad new tariffs: Trump plans to impose new tariffs on most imported goods, with rates generally reaching 10%. The New York Times warns this could drive up domestic prices in the U.S. and potentially trigger a global trade war, harming American exporters.
5. Drifting away from European allies: After taking office, Trump is likely to distance the U.S. from its traditional European allies, weaken NATO, and may even directly push for the United States to withdraw from the alliance.
