Trump and Sanders, the advance of the outsiders. The vote on Tuesday 8 March, Women's Day, brought the only female candidate in the US primaries, Hillary Clinton, closer to victory on the Democratic front, but also confirmed the growth of the two anti-establishment candidates, the socialist Bernie Sanders and the billionaire entrepreneur Donald Trump.
If for the former, who swept away in the Afro-American Mississippi except to overturn the predictions in the heaviest stage of the Michigan (Midwestern industrial state where Detroit is located), the hopes of hooking up to the winning train and becoming the Democratic candidate in the presidential elections in November are very few, instead the favorable trend is consolidating in favor of the Republican candidate who loses from his pursuer Ted Cruz only in Idaho and now has an advantage of practically 100 delegates (446 against 347) in the race that will lead to the nomination in June, for which it is necessary to reach 1.237 delegates.
Trump's rise, which by now seems unstoppable (there will be votes next Tuesday in two key states such as Florida and Illinois, where the tycoon could almost end the game if he wins), is starting to worry not only the moderate Republican electorate - who in fact could lean towards for the most reassuring figure of Hillary Clinton in the presidential elections – but also the strong powers of the first economy in the world. Populist and isolationist extremism is not liked either by the leaders of the Grand Old Party (which in fact continues to hope for Cruz's comeback) or by Silicon Valley, the circle of big giants that dictate the law overseas even on political choices: Apple, Google, Facebook , Tesla and others are already studying strategies to stem Trump, as revealed by the Huffington Post. What arouses the greatest fear is his propaganda not only against immigrants but also - and above all - anti-free trade and considered absolutely dangerous in foreign policy, where the television celebrity would like to intervene energetically to cool relations with Mexico but also with Europe, China and Japan, on the contrary forging an ambiguous alliance with the eternal enemy Vladimir Putin.
Orientations that a certain type of electorate (white population impoverished by the crisis) like more and more and less and less the protagonists of economic dynamics and complicated international balances. He wrote about Wall Street Journal Thomas Wright, of the centrist Brookings Institution think tank: "Trump has a vision of foreign policy stuck in thirty years ago, which would destroy the alliances built over time by America, shut down the global economy and loosen the reins to authoritarian leaders".
