Biden withdraws from the election, but the US election is st

    The Republican National Convention of the United States ended a few days ago, and the "Trump-Vance" combination of the Republican Party in the 2024 US presidential election was officially released. Vance, who is less than 40 years old and came from the Appalachian Mountains, is the conservative successor of Trump MAGA (Make America Great Again), and is expected to continue Trumpism in the post-Trump era in the future.

    On the Democratic side, although the current US President Biden announced his withdrawal from the election on the 21st and expressed support for nominating Vice President Harris as the Democratic presidential candidate. But no matter which combination finally runs for the election, it represents another side of the United States that is completely different from "Trump-Vance". This not only reflects the differences between the two parties of freedom and conservatism, but also concerns the respective identities and the direction of the United States in terms of race, religion, culture, economy, etc.

    The battle between the "two Americas" is not only the background of this election, but also the competitive melody of the United States for more than 200 years in the past and for a long time in the future.

    Although specific parties have split and merged in American history, the battle between the liberal "political America" ​​and the conservative "cultural America" ​​has continued for more than 200 years. Its essence is to keep asking: What is America like? What is America like?

    "Trump-Vance" tried to return to the "glory and dream" given to America by daytime culture, while Biden, Harris and other Democrats stuck to the "halo and filter" added to America by nighttime culture.

    The strength shaped by America's daytime culture is reflected not only in America's strong military capabilities, but also in its large industrial production capacity. At the same time, America's nighttime culture, with the help of daytime culture, has become America's so-called "soft power". America's daytime culture has shaped America's hard power, and America's hard power has guaranteed the commercial interests pursued by America's nighttime culture. "Powerful America" ​​and "commercial America" ​​have thus established a symbiotic relationship, using the US government's national rule to maintain the monopoly profits of American companies, so as to continue to maintain America's world hegemony and thus preserve the hegemony dividend.

    From the TV debate between Biden and Trump, to Trump's assassination attempt, to Biden's final announcement of withdrawal from the election, various "conspiracy theories" and rumors about the physical and mental health of the US president spread like wildfire, causing a lot of speculation and concern. At this time when the modern political situation in the United States is in unprecedented turmoil, Kamala Harris was pushed to the forefront. It seems inevitable that Harris will take over from Biden and face Trump in this election. With only three months to go before the presidential election, can Harris, who has yet to fully demonstrate her political abilities as a vice president, challenge Trump, a politician who is unruly, fickle, self-seeking, competitive, persistent, cunning and treacherous?
