나는 개인적으로 Trump 대통령을 비난하지 않는다. 그는 특히 정적들 사이에서 심한 비난을 많이 받는다.
쉽게 얘기해서, 내집안의 곡간이 텅 비어가는데, 체면만 챙기느라 계속해서 퍼주기만해온, 미국의 정책을 바꾸어, "America First, Make America great again...."등등의 슬로건을 내걸고, 그공약을 실천하기위해 지난 3년동안, 그의 국가 정책은 국민들 사이에 커다란 희망을 심어 주었고, 그실적이 미국전역에서,경제재건, 실업율, GDP성장율, 남부국경 Fence건설하여 불법유입 이민자 차단정책, 그가 주도하여 북미자유무역협정개정 등등에서 챙길것 다챙기는 개정안 완료, 야당인 민주당이 부러워하고, 미워할정도로 국민들의 두터운 지지를 받고있다.
그렇기 때문에 그가 탄핵의 위기에 있으면서도, 그는 오는 11월 둘째주 화요일에 치러지는 대통령 선거유세를 하고 다닐정도로 여유있게 국가를 운영하는 뱃장도 엿보였다.
연두교서를 발표할때도, 전세계가 보는 앞에서, Union Address시작전에 상원의장과 하원의장에게 연두교서 1부씩 전달하면서, 정적인 하원의장, Nancy Pelosi와는 눈길도 주지 않고, 그녀가 내민 악수조차도 거들떠 보지도 않고, 되돌아서서 연두교서를 발표하는, 사상유례없는 선례를 남기기도 했었다.
이에 앙갚음 하느라, Nancy는 그연도교서를 한장 장장씩, 대통령이 연설하는 동안에 짝짝 찢어 보이는 그녀다운 연출을 하는것도 희안한 광경이었었다. 어찌보면 두 정치적 지도자들이 보여운 돌출행동은 눈살을 찌뿌리게 했다는 점도 특히했다.
다음날 백악관에서 트럼프 대통령은 공화당 의회친구동료들과 탄핵무효를 자찬하는 모임을 갖었었다. 상원에서 최종적으로 투표에 들어가 53대 47로 탄핵안을 무효화 시켰었던것이다. 이로서 지난 4개월 이상 미국뿐만이 아니고, 전세계의 이목을 집중시켰던 탄핵결의안은 휴지통으로 처박혔지만, 미국정치에 오점을 남긴것은 확실하다고 하겠다. 지금까지 미국역사상 3번의 대통령 탄핵안이 의회에서 논의 됐었지만, 전부 탄핵결의안은 마지막 단계에서 무효화 시켰던 것이다. 한국은 단번에 해결(?)하는 무식함을 보였던점과 참으로 많이 비교되는 부분이다.

많은 전문가들의 11월 대선에서, 트럼프의 재집권을 긍정적으로 보고있다.
트럼프는 바람을 일으키는 풍운아임을 틀림없는것 같다. Coronvirus가 중국뿐 아니라 전세계를 공포에 떨게 하고있는속에서, 서방 세계들은 특별기를 띄워 자국민 보호에 경쟁을 하고, 하늘과 해상에서의 중국과의 출입문을 꽉 닫고있는 판에, 조국 한국만이 하늘과 해상을 활짝열어놓고 중국인들 관광객들을 받아들이고 있음을 비교해본다.

US President Donald Trump has taken a
victory lap one day after his impeachment acquittal, in a White House
tirade against his political enemies.
"I've done things wrong in
my life, I will admit... but this is what the end result is," he said as
he held up a newspaper headlined "Trump acquitted"."We went through hell, unfairly. We did nothing wrong," he said at the White House. "It was evil, it was corrupt."
He earlier criticised impeachment foes who invoked their religious faith.

"It's called 'total acquittal'."
Mr Trump was impeached by the House of Representatives in December for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, but was acquitted on Wednesday after a two-week trial in the Republican-controlled Senate, which did not include any witnesses.
Mr Trump also used a swear word to describe the justice department inquiry into whether his 2016 election campaign had colluded with the Kremlin.
"It was all bullshit," he said. "This should never happen to another president ever."
The heroic political outlaw
Analysis by Gary O'Donoghue, Washington @BBCBlindGazzaSo what was that?
According to the president, it was neither speech nor news conference; it was "nothing", it was a "celebration".
It was certainly about 62 minutes long and veered wildly between self-congratulation, via self-justification, to self-pity with a smattering of bilious expletives and insults to describe his political opponents en route.
It was both a lap of honour and an emotional rollercoaster, all played out in front of his Republican flock, the nation and the world.
Frankly, it was hard to keep up.
One moment the president was railing against liars, leakers and "dirty cops"; the next we were into an anecdote about a wrestling team from Penn State University.
The acquitted, no doubt, enjoy a moment of catharsis - the moment of euphoria when the pall of guilt is lifted and renewal can begin. But don't expect this president to put this one behind him - it's far too valuable an electoral stick with which to beat his rivals right up to polling day.
President Trump's appeal in 2016 was as the outsider, the man to "drain the swamp" and give power back to the people.
The impeachment process will allow Trump 45 to once again assume the mantle of the heroic political outlaw.

Mr Trump's post-acquittal celebration contrasted with President Bill Clinton's address in 1999, when the impeached Democratic president offered a sombre apology to the American people.
"I want to say again to the American people how profoundly sorry I am for what I said and did to trigger these events and the great burden they have imposed on the Congress and on the American people," Mr Clinton said.
As he concluded his remarks, Mr Trump also offered a rare apology - to his family, for having to "go through a phony, rotten deal".
Earlier in the day, Mr Trump spoke about his "terrible ordeal" of impeachment during the National Prayer Breakfast, an annual cross-party event in Washington DC to celebrate religious freedom.
Mr Trump continued: "I don't like people that use their faith as justification for doing what they know is wrong.
"Nor do I like people that say 'I pray for you' when they know that's not so."
On Wednesday, Senator Mitt Romney cited his deep Mormon faith as he became the only Republican to vote to remove Mr Trump from office.

Mr Trump cited the matter again later in the East Room, saying: "I doubt she [Pelosi] prays at all."
Reacting to Mr Trump's prayer speech, Mrs Pelosi, who sat near Mr Trump as he spoke, told reporters: "He's impeached forever, no matter what he says or whatever headlines he wants to carry around.
"You're impeached forever. You're never getting rid of that scar."
