Trump vs Clinton: is it a new era for the USA? On Tuesday November the 8th we will know who the next president of United States will be.
A man or a woman will be the ruler of the world to come? The majority of the people doesn’t know who mrs Rodham is, without her husband surname (Clinton) and his presidentship too would have passed unnoticed without the sexual scandal involving him and Monica Lewisky. The former Secretary of State founded his election campaign on immigrants rights, gays marriage, a new plan for social security and social equality, in particular the rights about black women. She wants pure energy with hydroelectric power station or with aeolian deposits, to reduce environmental pollution.
She wants to build also new infrastructures to give home to homeless. Clinton wants also to do a fiscal reform to eliminate the multinationals which move American industries abroad.
Trump is an entrepreneur who wants to reduce debts and deficit that afflicts the USA since 2008 and so he wants to increase workplaces. On the theme of immigration he wants to build a wall on the Mexican boundaries, the elimination of the right of citizenship for the one born in the USA and an economic plan to improve wages and security for all Americans, so he wants to reduce criminality.
About energy he wants to use petrol again because he thinks that the global warming is a good thing. In foreign policy he wants to release the tensions with Russia and China, to avoid any chance to have nuclear power in Iran, to send troops abroad only if necessary and to defeat ISIS once for all.
Both were involved in scandals: Hillary sent, using her mail, 22 top secret documents and so she compromised the national security, while Trump was accused of harassment.
I’m not American and so on Tuesday I won’t vote, but I’d like to ask to all Americans: do you do it for real? Are these people really the best of your country? The ones that represent you? A sexists millionaire and an ex First Lady who even can’t send an e-mail?
