IHe only has six months left. In six months, the Americans will have decided. Donald Trump will be reappointed for another four years, or he will be subjected to the humiliation of a defeat which will make him the equal in misfortune of Jimmy Carter and the late George H. W. Bush, beaten at the end of their first mandate. With an unemployment rate that has exploded to levels not seen since the end of the Second World War, the President of the United States is not leaving with the wind in his back.
