SMM, November 9: November 7, Beijing time, the outcome of the donkey elephant dispute has settled! Republicans continue to occupy the Senate, while Democrats win the House of Representatives. This is the Democratic Party after eight years to win the House of Representatives again, the Democratic Party invested more than $5 billion, can be called the most expensive mid-term election in history, during which former President Barack Obama changed his low-key style and gave speeches everywhere. Go all out to canvass votes for the Democrats, so this victory means a lot to the Democrats.

The picture above shows the distribution of votes in the House of Representatives. It looks full of red Republican vote areas. How did you lose in the end? In fact, for the Republican Party, their voting positions have not changed much in the mid-term elections and the 2016 US election, mainly by the working people at the bottom of the central region, in their eyes. This president, who uses words only at the level of primary school students, is very approachable and very close to the people, rather than being as high and untouchable as other presidents of the United States. His tax reduction, anti-immigration, and other policies have protected the vital interests of the people at the bottom. So they consistently supported Trump.

But although the central territory is large, it is sparsely populated. A big state may have only one vote, while some of the most populous states in the east and west, including the super-large cities of New York and Los Angeles, belong to the Democratic vote zone. A giant state like California has more than 50 lawmakers in one state, and these areas are basically places for the rich, and the rich, mainly Buffett and Soros, are basically pro-Democrats, which is fundamentally no different from the 2016 US election. Why did the media say the black swan took off in that year's election? Because when Trump was able to turn defeat into victory under the collective opposition of the tuhao on Wall Street, the Silicon Valley elite, and several major mainstream media, it was incredible to most people. This is the power of the people at the bottom, and this is called the water can carry the boat. As for the failure to overturn the boat, it is not up to now, and the general election will not be known until two years later.

Some say Trump is at risk of impeachment after Democrats take control of the House of Representatives. It is up to the Senate to decide, and it is too difficult to get a 2-3 Senate vote to succeed. With no gross negligence in Trump's administration and no further ferment in Russia, the Democrats should not act rashly. In addition, Shi Hanbing, a prominent economist, said that if the Democratic Party interferes too much on certain issues related to people's livelihood and welfare, it will easily push itself against public opinion, thereby helping Trump to be re-elected in the presidential election in 2020.

Something similar happened in 1994, when Republicans took control of Congress and imposed too strict restrictions on President Clinton's Democratic policy, causing the government to shut down twice, so two years later the American people voted with their feet. To help Clinton win a big victory. As the saying goes, "too much", history is always the same as before, and perhaps Trump's failure this time is his best chance for his next re-election.

As usual, Trump's tenure is also the best opportunity for China. Trump has upended the impression of the president of the United States, who doesn't have to be as high-profile and export as Obama. Trump was a rookie in politics and had no previous political experience, nor did President Reagan, but that did not in any way prevent Reagan from becoming a great president. Trump's wanton behavior has made China's amiable and peaceful rising power image more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people; Trump's widespread sanctions have given China a chance to break with its neighbors such as Japan and India. Trump's withdrawal from TPP, keeps China from worrying about America's ambitions to return to the Asia-Pacific region; Trump develops traditional energy so that China can lead the way in new energy.

As General Secretary Xi said, economic globalization is an irreversible historical trend, and the general trend of history will certainly move forward. Trump's retreat and retreat is the best time for China to fully open up and embrace the world, and what the United States has lost is bound to be won by China in the end.
