“He is indifferent to the world and, on the other hand, wants the small towns that form the fabric that supports his candidate to do well in the short term.”
However, a possible victory for the former US president would imply not only an aggressively protectionist policy“but an aversive environment for migrants and would try to create the possibility that the United States could actively intervene in the fight against organized crime in Mexico,” Quintana pointed out.
