Horseradish and radishes: why we are not interested in the results of the current elections in the US, but in Europe they are still nervous," explains Natalia Strachkova, a political commentator.

Why Trump lost - and this is exactly how everyone evaluates the failure of the Republicans in the midterm elections for Congress - cannot be explained even by the most professional observer. Here you have all the trouble from the war with Iran, and the inconsistency of the "one step forward, two steps back" policy, and much more. And personal eccentricity is good in moderation, but then it starts to get annoying, like a running joke.

Those who are more thoughtful will surely ask another question: what about Trump himself and his entourage? Did they not realize that this is exactly the result that awaits them if they act as they act? So it seems they are not stupid and they know their politics. And the prospect that has now arrived was described long before November 3rd by almost everyone, Trump's opponents and supporters alike. And he himself, even before the announcement of the election results, began to assume difficulties - they say, it's fine, we will negotiate with the Democrats.

Then what was it? Classical political scientists explain what happened fundamentally and draw attention to the similarity of the situation in the US and Europe. In the sense that the entire world is in the process of "fundamental transformation", political systems cannot keep up with the changes, including:

"The internal tension is increasing; it is not clear when and how it will end. The turns of 2024 and 2026 are not the last. To continue," believes on the Russia channel in global affairs.

Those who are usually classified as conspiracy theorists will certainly add their own specific conclusions. Why not, for example, accept that Trump himself does not really care about all these Republican uprisings: after all, Trump did not have unified support in the party, but quite the opposite, and he still has his last term.
